Figure 101 – Temperature/relative humidity characteristic during normal operation
Figure 102 – Temperature/relative humidity characteristic during abnormal operation
FOREWORD
In the list of differences that exist in some countries, replace “19.101” by “19.102”.
INTRODUCTION
Replace the second sentence of the second paragraph by the following:
It also covers abnormal situations that can be expected in practice and takes into account the
way in which electromagnetic phenomena can affect the safe operation of appliances.
Add the following note after the fourth paragraph:
NOTE 1 For example, if sauna heating appliances within the scope of this part 2 include a humidifier unit, then
IEC 60335-2-98 is applicable as far as is reasonable.

60335-2-53 Amend. 1 © IEC:2007 – 5 –

Replace the fifth paragraph by the following:
When a part 2 standard does not include additional requirements to cover hazards dealt with
in Part 1, Part 1 applies.
NOTE 2 This means that the technical committees responsible for the part 2 standards have determined that it is
not necessary to specify particular requirements for the appliance in question over and above the general
requirements.
This standard is a product family standard dealing with the safety of appliances and takes
precedence over horizontal and generic standards covering the same subject.
NOTE 3 Horizontal and generic standards covering a hazard are not applicable since they have been taken into
consideration when developing the general and particular requirements for the IEC 60335 series of standards. For
example, in the case of temperature requirements for surfaces on many appliances, generic standards, such as
ISO 13732-1 for hot surfaces, are not applicable in addition to Part 1 or part 2 standards.
1 Scope
Replace the two dashed items in the existing third paragraph by the following:
– 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.
Add the following paragraph before Note 101:
The appliances covered by this standard are intended for use in the home and in public
saunas located in blocks of flats, hotels and similar locations.
Add the following after Note 101:
This standard also deals with the safety of electric sauna heating appliances provided with a
humidifier unit. Their rated voltage being not more than 250 V for single-phase appliances
and 480 V for other appliances. The room air is humidified by evaporating or atomising water.
NOTE 102 A humidifier may be part of a sauna heating appliance or may be incorporated in the sauna heater.
The sauna heating appliance or sauna heater may be operated with or without the humidifier.
