AS NZS 60335.2.27 pdf download.Household and similar electrical appliances—Safety
1 Scope
This clause of Part 1 is replaced by the following. This International Standard deals with the safety of electrical appliances incorporating emitters for exposing the skin to optical radiation (wavelength 1 00 nm to 1 mm), for household and similar use, their rated voltage being not more than 250 V for single-phase appliances and 480 V for other appliances. NOTE 1 01 Battery-operated appliances and other DC supplied appliances are within the scope of this standard. Dual supply appliances, either mains-supplied or battery-operated, are regarded as battery-operated appliances when operated in the battery mode. As far as practicable, this standard deals with the common hazards presented by appliances that are encountered by all persons using the appliances in tanning salons, beauty parlours and similar premises or at home. However, in general, it does not take into account – persons (including children) whose · physical, sensory or mental capabilities; or · lack of experience and knowledge prevents them from using the appliance safely without supervision or instruction; – children playing with the appliance. NOTE 1 02 Attention is drawn to the fact that – for appliances intended to be used in vehicles or on board ships or aircraft, additional requirements can be necessary; – in many countries, additional requirements are specified by the national health authorities, the national authorities responsible for the protection of labour and similar authorities; – IEC 60598-1 is applicable as far as is reasonable. NOTE 1 03 This standard does not apply to – appliances for skin or hair care (IEC 60335-2-23); – sauna heating appliances and infrared cabins (IEC 60335-2-53); – cosmetic and beauty care appliances incorporating lasers and intense light sources (IEC 60335-2-1 1 3) – appliances for medical purposes (IEC 60601 ); – appliances that use UV radiation for purposes other than tanning the skin;
3 Terms and definitions
This clause of Part 1 is applicable except as follows. 3.1 Definitions relating to physical characteristics 3.1 .1 01 effective irradiance irradiance of electromagnetic radiation weighted according to a specified action spectrum 3.1 .1 02 luminous transmission percentage of incident light passing through a material weighted by the spectral sensitivity of the human eye and integrated over the wavelength range of 380 and 780 nm 3.5 Definitions relating to types of appliances 3.5.1 01 UV appliance appliance incorporating UV emitters for tanning purposes 3.5.1 02 IR appliance appliance incorporating one or more IR emitters 3.5.1 03 VIS appliance appliance incorporating one or more VIS emitters 3.6 Definitions relating to parts of an appliance 3.6.1 01 ultraviolet emitter radiating source constructed to emit electromagnetic energy at wavelengths between 200 nm and 400 nm Note 1 to entry: A fluorescent UV lamp for tanning is an example of a UV emitter. Note 2 to entry: UV radiation with wavelengths below 200 nm is not easily transmitted through air and usually exists only in a vacuum. Note 3 to entry: Ultraviolet emitters are also referred to as UV emitters. 3.6.1 02 infrared emitter radiating source constructed to emit electromagnetic energy at wavelengths between 780 nm and 1 mm Note 1 to entry: Infrared emitters are also referred to as IR emitters. 3.6.1 03 visual emitter radiating source constructed to emit electromagnetic energy at wavelengths of 400 nm to 780 nm Note 1 to entry: Visual emitters are also referred to as VIS emitters.
7 Marking and instructions
This clause of Part 1 is applicable except as follows. 7.1 Addition: UV appliances intended for commercial use, such as in tanning salons, beauty parlours and similar premises shall be marked with the Prohibition sign “not for household use” or with the substance of the following: Not for household use Appliances having fluorescent UV lamps for tanning shall be marked with the fluorescent UV lamp equivalency code range. This equivalency code range identifies the fluorescent UV lamps for tanning that shall be used in the appliance. NOTE 1 01 Details of the fluorescent UV lamp code that is marked on the lamp are given in IEC 61 228 and are reproduced in Annex CC for information. An example of the fluorescent UV lamp equivalency code range to be marked on the appliance is given in 22.1 1 1 . For UV emitters other than fluorescent UV lamps for tanning, the appliance shall be marked with the type reference of the emitters that are recommended for use.
