Single-capped fluorescent lamps - Safety specifications

IEC 61199:2011 specifies the safety requirements for single-capped fluorescent lamps for general lighting purposes of all groups havingcaps according to Table 1. It also specifies the method a manufacturer should use to show compliance with the requirements of this standard on the basis of whole production appraisal in association with his test records on finished products. This method can also be applied for certification purposes. Details of a batch test procedure which can be used to make limited assessment of batches are also given in this standard. This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 1999. It constitutes a technical revision. Main technical changes are the introduction of requirements for high frequency operation, a new temperature measurement position and few new cap-holder fits.

Lampes à fluorescence à culot unique - Specifications de sécurité

La CEI 61199:2011 spécifie les exigences de sécurité pour les lampes à fluorescence à culot unique, destinées à l'éclairage général, de tous les groupes ayant des culots conformes au Tableau 1. Elle spécifie aussi la méthode qu'il convient qu'un fabricant utilise pour démontrer la conformité de ses produits aux exigences de la présente norme, méthode basée sur l'évaluation de la qualité de la production globale, associée aux résultats d'essais enregistrés sur les produits finis. Cette méthode peut aussi être appliquée à des fins de certification. Des précisions sont également données, dans la présente norme, sur la procédure de contrôle par lot qui peut être utilisée pour l'appréciation limitée de la qualité des lots. Cette troisième édition annule et remplace la deuxième édition parue en 1999. Elle constitue une révision technique. Les principales modifications techniques concernent l'introduction d'exigences relatives au fonctionnement à haute fréquence, d'un nouvel emplacement pour la mesure de la température ainsi que de quelques changements au niveau des ensembles culot/douille.

Fluorescenčne sijalke z enim vznožkom - Varnostne specifikacije

Ta mednarodni standard določa varnostne zahteve za fluorescenčne sijalke z enim vznožkom za splošne potrebe razsvetljave vseh skupin, ki imajo vznožke v skladu s preglednico 1. Prav tako določa metodo, ki jo mora uporabiti proizvajalec, da izkaže skladnost z zahtevami tega standarda na podlagi presoje celotne proizvodnje v povezavi s svojimi zapisi o preskusih končnih izdelkov. Ta metoda se lahko uporablja tudi za certifikacijo. Podrobnosti o šaržnem preskusnem postopku, ki se lahko uporablja za omejeno oceno serij, so prav tako podane v tem standardu.
OPOMBA: Skladnost s tem standardom zadeva samo varnostne kriterije in ne upošteva delovanja fluorescenčnih sijalk z enim vznožkom za splošne potrebe razsvetljave z upoštevanjem svetlobnega toka, barve, značilnosti zagona in delovanja. Te informacije bralci najdejo v IEC 60901.
Lahko se pričakuje, da bodo sijalke, ki so v skladu s tem standardom, delovale varno pri napajalni napetosti med 90 % in 110 % ocenjene napajalne napetosti uporabljenega balasta, kadar bodo delovale z balastom, ki je v skladu z IEC 61347-2-3 ali IEC 61347-2-8, z zagonsko napravo, ki je v skladu z IEC 60155 (če velja) in v sijalki, ki je v skladu z IEC 60598-1.
