Automatic electrical controls - Part 2-6: Particular requirements for automatic electrical pressure sensing controls including mechanical requirements

IEC 60730-2-6:2015(E) applies to automatic electrical pressure sensing controls with a minimum gauge pressure rating of -60 kPa and a maximum gauge pressure rating of 4,2 MPa, for use in, on or in association with, equipment. The equipment may use electricity, gas, oil, solid fuel, solar thermal energy, etc. or a combination thereof. This standard is also applicable to individual pressure sensing controls utilized as part of a control system or pressure sensing controls which are mechanically integral with multi-functional controls having non-electrical outputs. Automatic electrical pressure sensing controls for equipment used by the public, such as equipment intended to be used by laymen in shops, in light industry and on farms, are within the scope of this standard. This standard does not apply to pressure sensing controls intended exclusively for industrial process applications unless explicitly mentioned in the relevant equipment standard. This standard applies to inherent safety, operating values, operating sequences where such are associated with equipment protection, and to the testing of automatic electrical pressure sensing controls used in, on or in association with equipment. This standard is also applicable to the functional safety of low complexity safety related pressure sensing controls and systems. This standard is also applicable to pressure sensing controls for appliances within the scope of IEC 60335-1. This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 2007. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition: - aligns the text with IEC 60730-1, Edition 5; - modifies requirements for Class B control function (H.27.1.2.2); - modifies requirements for Class C control function (H.27.1.2.3) and - modifies requirements for faults during lock-out or safety- shut-down. Key words: sensing controls, control systems, pressure sensing

Dispositifs de commande électrique automatiques - Partie 2-6: Exigences particulières pour les dispositifs de commande électrique automatiques sensibles à la pression y compris les exigences mécaniques

IEC 60730-2-6:2015 s'applique aux dispositifs de commande électrique automatiques sensibles à la pression avec des caractéristiques assignées de pression minimales de -60 kPa et des caractéristiques assignées de pression maximales de 4,2 Mpa, destinés à être utilisés dans, sur ou avec des matériels. Les matériels peuvent utiliser l'électricité, le gaz, le pétrole, des combustibles solides, l'énergie thermique solaire, etc. ou une combinaison de ces sources d’énergie. La présente norme s’applique également aux dispositifs de commande sensibles à la pression individuels utilisés comme partie d'un système de commande ou comme dispositifs de commande sensibles à la pression intégrés mécaniquement dans des dispositifs de commande multifonctions ayant des sorties non électriques. Les dispositifs de commande électrique automatiques sensibles à la pression pour matériels utilisés par le public, par exemple les matériels destinés à être utilisés par des personnes inexpérimentées dans les magasins, l’industrie légère et dans les fermes, relèvent du domaine d’application de la présente norme. La présente norme ne s'applique pas aux dispositifs de commande sensibles à la pression prévus exclusivement pour des applications industrielles, sauf mention contraire dans la norme de matériel appropriée. La présente norme s’applique à la sécurité intrinsèque, aux valeurs de fonctionnement et aux séquences de fonctionnement dans la mesure où elles interviennent dans la protection des matériels, ainsi qu’aux essais des dispositifs de commande électrique automatiques sensibles à la pression utilisés dans, sur ou avec des matériels. La présente norme s’applique également aux systèmes et dispositifs de commande sensibles à la pression de sécurité fonctionnelle et de sécurité peu complexe. La présente norme s'applique également aux dispositifs de commande sensibles à la pression pour appareils d’utilisation faisant partie du domaine d'application de l’IEC 60335-1. Cette troisième édition annule et remplace la deuxième édition parue en 2007. Cette édition constitue une révision technique. Cette édition inclut les modifications techniques majeures suivantes par rapport à l'édition précédente: - alignement du texte de cette édition sur celui de l’IEC 60730-1, Édition 5; - modification des exigences de la fonction de commande de classe B (H.27.1.2.2); - modification des exigences de la fonction de commande de classe C (H.27.1.2.3); - modification des exigences relatives aux pannes pendant le verrouillage ou l’arrêt de sécurité. La présente partie 2 est destinée à être utilisée conjointement avec l’IEC 60730-1:2013 Mots clés: commande sensibles, système de commande, sensibles à la pression

Avtomatske električne krmilne naprave za uporabo v gospodinjstvu in za podobno uporabo - 2-6. del: Posebne zahteve za avtomatske električne, na tlak občutljive naprave, vključno z mehanskimi zahtevami

Ta del standarda IEC 60730 se uporablja za avtomatske električne, na tlak občutljive naprave z najmanjšo stopnjo tlaka v merilniku –60 kPa in največjo stopnjo tlaka v merilniku 4,2 MPa, za uporabo v/na opremi ali v povezavi z njo. Za opremo se lahko samostojno ali v kombinaciji uporabljajo elektrika, plin, nafta, trdno gorivo, sončna toplotna energija itd.
OPOMBA: Beseda »oprema« v tem standardu vključuje »naprave« in »kontrolni sistem«. Ta standard se uporablja tudi za posamezne na tlak občutljive naprave, ki se uporabljajo kot del kontrolnega sistema, ali na tlak občutljive naprave, ki so mehansko integrirane v večfunkcijske naprave brez električnih izhodov.
Področje uporabe tega standarda zajema avtomatske električne, na tlak občutljive naprave za opremo za javno uporabo, kot je na primer oprema, namenjena za laično uporabo v trgovinah, lahki industriji in na kmetijah.
Ta standard se ne uporablja za na tlak občutljive naprave, namenjene izključno za industrijsko uporabo, razen če ni to izrecno navedeno v ustreznem standardu za opremo.

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence
between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in
the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents inc
