Safety requirements for electrical equipment for measurement, control, and laboratory use - Part 2-061: Particular requirements for laboratory atomic spectrometers with thermal atomization and ionization

IEC 61010-2-061: 2018 applies to laboratory atomic spectrometers equipped with power supply and thermal vaporization. It has the status of a group safety publication in accordance with IEC Guide 104. This fourth edition cancels and replaces the third edition published in 2015. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:

•             adaptation of the changes introduced by Amendment 1 to IEC 61010-1;

•             addition to Article 6 of the tolerance for the stability of AC voltage test equipment;

•             addition to Clause 15 of a requirement for locking systems containing electrical / electronic or programmable components.

This new edition has been drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.

A list of all parts of the IEC 61010 series, under the general title: Safety requirements for electrical equipment for measurement, control, and laboratory use, may be found on the IEC website. The equivalent Canadian adoptions can be be found on the CSA website and within the Annex of Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1.

This Part 2-061 is intended to be used in conjunction with IEC 61010-1. It was established on the basis of the third edition (2010) and it’s Amendment 1 (2016).

This Part 2-061 supplements or modifies the corresponding clauses in IEC 61010-1 so as to convert that publication into the IEC standard: Particular requirements for laboratory equipment for mixing and stirring.

Where a particular subclause of Part 1 is not mentioned in this Part 2, that subclause applies as far as is reasonable. Where the part states “addition”, “modification”, “replacement” or “deletion”, the relevant requirement, test specification, or note in Part 1 should be adapted accordingly
