Fuel cell technologies - Part 6-100: Micro fuel cell power systems - Safety

IEC 62282-6-100:2010 covers micro fuel cell power systems, micro fuel cell power units and fuel cartridges that are wearable or easily carried by hand, providing d.c. outputs that do not exceed 60 V d.c. and power outputs that do not exceed 240 VA. Establishes requirements for all micro fuel cell power systems, micro fuel cell power units and fuel cartridges to ensure a reasonable degree of safety for normal use, reasonably foreseeable misuse, and consumer transportation of such items. The attention of National Committees is drawn to the fact that equipment manufacturers and testing organizations may need a transitional period following publication of a new, amended or revised IEC publication or one that replaces an existing Publicly Available Specification (PAS) in which to make products in accordance with the new requirements and to equip themselves for conducting new or revised tests. It is the recommendation of the committee that the content of this publication be adopted for implementation nationally not earlier than 12 months from the date of publication. In the meantime, IEC/PAS 62282-6-1 can still be ordered by contacting the local IEC member National Committee or the IEC Central Office. The contents of the corrigendum of December 2011 have been included in this copy.

Technologies des piles à combustible - Partie 6-100: Systèmes à micropiles à combustible - Sécurité

L’IEC 62282-6-100:2010 traite des systèmes à micropiles à combustible, des blocs d'alimentation électrique des micropiles à combustible et des cartouches de combustible, qui sont portatifs ou qui peuvent être facilement portés à la main, fournissant une tension de sortie en courant continu ne dépassant pas 60 V et une puissance de sortie ne dépassant pas 240 VA. La présente norme établit des exigences pour tous les systèmes à micropiles à combustible, les blocs d'alimentation électrique des micropiles à combustible et les cartouches de combustible, afin d'assurer un degré de sécurité raisonnable pour l'utilisation normale, le mauvais usage raisonnablement prévisible, et le transport pour la vente de tels éléments. L'attention des Comités Nationaux est attirée sur le fait que les fabricants d'appareils et les organismes d'essai peuvent avoir besoin d'une période transitoire après la publication d'une nouvelle publication IEC, ou d'une publication amendée ou révisée, voire d’une publication qui remplace une Spécification accessible au public (PAS) existante, pour fabriquer des produits conformes aux nouvelles exigences et se doter des moyens nécessaires pour procéder à des essais selon des méthodes nouvelles ou révisées. Le comité recommande que le contenu de cette publication soit entériné au niveau national au plus tôt 12 mois après la date de publication. Avant cette date, le document IEC/PAS 62282-6-1 peut toujours être commandé auprès du Comité National membre de l’IEC ou du Bureau Central de l’IEC. Le contenu du corrigendum de décembre 2011 a été pris en considération dans cet exemplaire.
