Safety in installations for electroheating and electromagnetic processing - Part 8: Particular requirements for electroslag remelting furnaces

IEC 60519-8:2020 specifies particular safety requirements for electroslag remelting equipment and installations.
This document specifies safety requirements applicable to mainly electroheating installations for remelting and, in some cases, for refining processes of metals through direct resistance heating of a conductive slag.
The object of this document is to specify the particular requirements for the safety of persons in or around an electroslag remelting furnace. The general requirements are included in IEC 60519-1.
This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 2005. This edition constitutes a technical revision.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
a) the structure has been redrafted according to IEC 60519-1:2020;
b) the Scope has been redrafted;
c) the terms and definitions, normative references and bibliography have been updated and completed;
d) all requirements and content from IEC 60519-8:2005 that have been included in IEC 60519‑1:2020 have been removed to avoid any duplication.

Sécurité dans les installations destinées au traitement électrothermique et électromagnétique - Partie 8: Exigences particulières pour fours de refusion sous laitier électroconducteur

L’IEC 60519-8:2020 spécifie les exigences de sécurité particulières pour les équipements et les installations de refusion sous laitier électroconducteur.
Le présent document spécifie les exigences de sécurité applicables principalement aux installations électrothermiques pour la refusion et, dans certains cas, pour des processus d’affinage des métaux au moyen d’un laitier conducteur chauffé par résistance directe.
L’objet du présent document vise à préciser les exigences particulières relatives à la sécurité des personnes dans ou à proximité des fours de refusion sous laitier électroconducteur. Les exigences générales sont traitées dans l'IEC 60519-1.
Cette troisième édition annule et remplace la deuxième édition parue en 2005. Cette édition constitue une révision technique.
Cette édition inclut les modifications techniques majeures suivantes par rapport à l'édition précédente:
a) la structure a été révisée en fonction de l’IEC 60519-1:2020;
b) le domaine d’application a été révisé;
c) les termes et définitions, les références normatives et la bibliographie ont été mis à jour et complétés;
d) toutes les exigences et le contenu de l’IEC 60519-8:2005 ayant été inclus dans l’IEC 60519‑1:2020 ont été supprimés afin d’éviter toute répétition.
