Overview
EN 60730-2-6:2016/A1:2020 is a European standard developed by the CLC, focusing on automatic electrical pressure sensing controls. This standard defines the particular requirements, including mechanical specifications, for automatic electrical controls that sense pressure in various equipment. It complements Part 2 of IEC 60730 on automatic electrical controls with a special focus on pressure-related functionality.
These controls are widely used in equipment that operates with various energy sources such as electricity, gas, oil, solid fuel, or solar thermal energy, whether individually or in combination. The 2020 amendment (A1) updates and refines the original 2016 version, addressing key parameters such as operating pressures, mechanical strength, and endurance under maximum working pressures.
Key Topics
- Scope and Application: Covers automatic electrical pressure sensing controls used in household or industrial equipment using diverse energy sources.
- Operating Parameters: Specifies operating pressure, differential, and maximum working pressure requirements ensuring safety and functional reliability.
- Mechanical Requirements: Includes hydrostatic strength testing, leakage limits, and mechanical endurance to withstand specified pressures.
- Information Disclosure: Mandates clear documentation of operating pressure, pressure medium, operating differential, and maximum working pressure for user safety and compliance.
- Manufacturing Deviations and Drift: Controls must operate within declared pressure limits, excluding any deliberate overruns, to maintain consistent performance over product life.
- Endurance Testing: Requires pressure controls to be tested at declared maximum working pressure and differential to verify durability.
- Normative Requirements For North America: Annex CC implements additional requirements specific to pressure operating controls intended for use in the USA and Canada.
Applications
EN 60730-2-6:2016/A1:2020 applies to a broad range of automatic electrical pressure sensing controls used in:
- Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) systems for automatic pressure regulation.
- Fuel and Energy Systems involving gas, oil, or solar thermal equipment requiring pressure monitoring.
- Industrial Automation where precise pressure control is critical for process safety and efficiency.
- Household Appliances that employ pressure sensors for safe and reliable operation.
- Safety Systems that rely on pressure detection to prevent malfunction or hazardous conditions.
By providing rigorous mechanical and performance requirements, this standard ensures that pressure sensing controls operate safely, reliably, and consistently under their designated working conditions.
Related Standards
- IEC 60730-1: General requirements for automatic electrical controls, serving as the foundation for the specific Part 2 sections.
- EN 60730-2-1 to 2-xx Series: Other parts covering various types of automatic electrical controls for different sensing and control functions.
- EU Directives on Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) and Low Voltage Directive (LVD): Complementary regulations that aim to harmonize device safety and interference standards in Europe, referenced for updating the annexes of this standard.
- National Standards for North America: Including specific requirements outlined in Annex CC of EN 60730-2-6 for USA and Canadian markets to accommodate regional regulatory frameworks.
