Gospodinjski in podobni električni aparati - Varnost - 2-105. del: Posebne zahteve za večnamenske kabine za prhanje - Dopolnilo A1

Ta mednarodni standard obravnava varnost električnih večnamenskih kabin za prhanje in električnih ločenih večnamenskih enot za prhanje za gospodinjsko uporabo in podobne namene, pri čemer njihova nazivna napetost ni večja od 250 V za enofazne aparate in 480 V za druge aparate.
Na področje uporabe tega standarda spadajo aparati, ki niso namenjeni za običajno gospodinjsko uporabo, vendar so lahko vir nevarnosti za javnost, kot so aparati, namenjeni za laično uporabo v hotelih, centrih za telesno vadbo in na podobnih lokacijah.
Ta standard v največji možni meri obravnava splošne nevarnosti, ki jih predstavljajo aparati ter s katerimi se srečujejo osebe doma in v okolici doma. Vendar na splošno ne vključuje primerov:
– oseb (tudi otrok), ki zaradi
fizičnih, senzoričnih ali umskih sposobnosti oziroma
pomanjkanja izkušenj in znanja
ne morejo varno uporabljati aparata brez nadzora ali navodil;
– otrok, ki se igrajo z aparatom.
OPOMBA 101: Opozoriti je treba, da:
– so za aparate, ki so namenjeni za uporabo v vozilih ali na krovu ladij ali letal, morda potrebne dodatne zahteve;
– v številnih državah nacionalni zdravstveni organi, nacionalni organi za oskrbo z vodo, nacionalni organi, odgovorni za varstvo pri delu, ter drugi podobni organi določajo dodatne zahteve;
– so lahko v številnih državah lastnosti mehanske trdnosti, odpornosti na udarce in lomljivosti zaslonov za prhanje zajete v nacionalnih predpisih.
OPOMBA 102: Če aparat vključuje del, ki spada na področje uporabe standarda IEC 60065, IEC 60598 ali IEC 60950, je treba zadevni del preskusiti v skladu z ustreznim standardom, če je to primerno.
OPOMBA 103: Ta standard se ne uporablja za:
– pretočne grelnike vode za uporabo pri prhanju (IEC 60335-2-35);
– črpalke za prhanje (IEC 60335-2-41);
– aparate za medicinske namene;
– aparate, ki so namenjeni za uporabo na lokacijah, kjer veljajo posebne razmere, kot je prisotnost korozivne ali eksplozivne atmosfere (prah, hlapi ali plin).

Overview

SIST EN IEC 60335-2-105:2022/A1:2022 is a European Standard developed by the CLC under the framework of the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC). It defines safety requirements for multifunctional shower cabinets and separate multifunctional shower units intended for household and similar uses. This standard applies to appliances operating at rated voltages up to 250 V for single-phase applications and 480 V for other configurations.

The standard is an amendment (A1) to EN IEC 60335-2-105:2021 and focuses on particular safety aspects related to the electrical and electronic controls, heating elements, motors, and software integrated in multifunctional shower cabinets. It supports essential requirements of relevant EU directives, ensuring harmonised safety compliance across Europe.

Key Topics

  • Scope and Applicability
    Covers household and similar multifunctional shower cabinets with electrical ratings suitable for residential installation.

  • Safety Requirements
    Addresses risks related to electrical shock, thermal hazards, mechanical strength, and protection against failure of heating elements and motors.
    Ensures appliance safety during normal use and in fault conditions.

  • Programmable Electronic Control Systems
    Specifies that software and hardware controlling the heating elements and motors must ensure no unsafe conditions occur even with simultaneous activation of multiple components.
    Fault/error detection must precede any safety compromise.

  • Software Evaluation
    Introduces Annex R, which details normative requirements for evaluating software in programmable electronic circuits. The software must initialize and terminate safely while controlling hardware to prevent hazards.

  • Testing and Compliance
    Defines procedures for testing appliance behavior under fault conditions and during simultaneous activation of components to verify safe operation.

Applications

This standard is crucial for manufacturers, testing laboratories, and regulatory bodies involved in the design, production, certification, and market surveillance of multifunctional shower cabinets. Key practical applications include:

  • Design and Development
    Guiding product design to incorporate safe electrical and electronic configurations for multifunctional shower units used in homes and similar settings.

  • Product Certification
    Ensuring products meet European safety requirements before being marketed in the EU and related markets.

  • Quality Assurance and Testing
    Defining testing protocols for functional safety verification, especially for software-controlled heating and motor systems.

  • Regulatory Compliance
    Supporting adherence to EU directives related to household electrical appliances, reducing risk of electric shocks, burns, and fire hazards.

Related Standards

  • EN IEC 60335-1 – General safety requirements for household and similar electrical appliances.
  • EN IEC 60335-2-x – Other particular requirements for different categories of household appliances.
  • IEC 60335-2-105:2016 – International baseline standard from which the European version is derived.
  • EN IEC 60335-2-105:2021 – Base document amended by A1 to update safety provisions.

Summary

SIST EN IEC 60335-2-105:2022/A1:2022 establishes critical safety criteria specifically tailored to multifunctional shower cabinets, promoting safe use in domestic environments. By integrating stringent requirements for programmable controls and software evaluation, the standard ensures modern multifunctional shower appliances maintain high safety standards even under fault conditions. This standard is essential for manufacturers aiming for EU market access and for stakeholders focused on consumer protection within the electrical appliance safety domain.
