SIST EN 60335-2-47:2003/A1:2008

Household and similar electrical appliances - Safety -- Part 2-47: Particular requirements for commercial electric boiling pans

Deals with the safty of electrically operated commercial boiling pans not intended for household use. The rated voltage being not more than 250 V for single-phase appliances connected between one phase and neutral, and 480 V for other appliances. Appliances which are within the scope of this standard are typicaly used in restaurants, canteens, hospitals and commercial enterprises, such as bakeries, butcheries, etc. The electrical part of appliances making use of other forms of energy is also within the scope of this standard.

Gospodinjski in podobni električni aparati - Varnost - 2-47. del: Posebne zahteve za komercialne električne kotle (IEC 60335-2-47:2002/A1:2008)

Standard obravnava varnost električno upravljanih komercialnih električnih kotlov, ki niso namenjeni gospodinjski uporabi. Nazivna napetost mora biti manjša od 250 V za enofazne aparate, priključene med fazo in nevtralni vodnik, in 480 V za ostale aparate. Aparati, ki spadajo v področje uporabe tega standarda, se običajno uporabljajo v restavracijah, menzah, bolnišnicah in komercialnih podjetjih, kot so pekarne, mesnice itd. Tudi električni del aparatov, ki uporabljajo druge vire energije, spada v področje uporabe tega standarda.

Overview

SIST EN 60335-2-47:2003/A1:2008 is a European harmonized standard specifying safety requirements for commercial electric boiling pans. It forms part of the broader EN 60335 series that addresses household and similar electrical appliances. This particular standard focuses on ensuring the safe design and operation of electric boiling pans used in commercial settings, such as catering and food service environments.

Updated by Amendment A1 in 2008, this standard is aligned with IEC 60335-2-47:2002/A1:2008 and is mandatory for manufacturers and importers supplying commercial electric boiling pans within the European market. The standard mandates crucial construction parameters, safety features, and protection mechanisms to safeguard users and ensure reliable appliance performance.

Key Topics

• Scope and Applicability
  Applies to commercial electric boiling pans typically used on tables or countertops in food service establishments. This includes pans designed for boiling, simmering, or cooking large quantities of food safely and efficiently.

• Ingress Protection (IP) Ratings

  • Appliances designed for tabletop use must have a minimum protection rating of IPX3.
  • Other categories of boiling pans must have a minimum rating of IPX4.
    These IP ratings relate to protection against water ingress, critical in wet kitchen environments.

• Thermal Cut-Out Safety Devices
  The regulation specifies the design and functionality of thermal cut-outs that protect heating elements and motors from overheating or hazardous unexpected starts. Key requirements include:

  • Use of non-self-resetting, trip-free thermal cut-outs to ensure automatic and reliable disconnection in fault conditions.
  • For three-phase appliances, all-pole disconnection is mandatory to fully isolate the appliance during faults.
  • Single-phase appliances require at least one-pole disconnection to maintain safety.
  • Accessibility to thermal cut-outs can influence the need for trip-free design - if only accessible by tool removal, the trip-free requirement may be waived.

• Construction and Safety Testing
  The amendment enhances requirements for construction integrity, focusing especially on the durability of thermal protecting circuits and ensuring compliance through testing procedures, including manual tests and rupture simulation of capillary tubes in thermal cut-outs.

Applications

SIST EN 60335-2-47:2003/A1:2008 serves as an essential guideline to manufacturers, safety inspectors, and quality assurance teams involved in the production, certification, and regulation of commercial electric boiling pans. Its practical applications include:

• Manufacturing Compliance
  Assisting manufacturers in designing boiling pans that meet European safety mandates to gain market access and user trust.

• Safety Certification
  Providing the framework for electrical safety testing and certification bodies to evaluate appliances per harmonized European standards.

• Risk Mitigation
  Helping operators and users of commercial kitchens reduce hazards linked to overheating, electrical faults, and exposure to water ingress.

• Market Regulation
  Enabling regulatory authorities to enforce product safety, ensuring appliances meet minimum protection and safety levels before sale or deployment in commercial environments.
