Overview

EN 60335-2-30:2009/A2:2022 (CENELEC) is the European adoption of IEC 60335-2-30 Amendment 2. It specifies safety requirements for household and similar electric room heaters, including stationary electric heaters for driver and passenger compartments of motor vehicles. The standard applies to appliances with rated voltages up to 250 V for single‑phase units and 480 V for other appliances. Amendment A2 updates test methods, temperature‑rise limits and construction/supply‑cord requirements to reflect current safety practice.

Key topics and technical requirements

  • Scope and voltage limits: Covers portable, wall‑mounted and built‑in room heaters and stationary vehicle compartment heaters (≤250 V).
  • Temperature‑rise testing:
    • Uses a specified surface temperature probe (Figure 104) - a 75 mm diameter probe with a hemispherical end, applied with a force of 4 N ± 1 N.
    • Contact period for measurement: 30 seconds.
    • Continuous monitoring during tests; temperature rises must not exceed values in Table 3 and Table 101.
    • Table 101 lists temperature‑rise limits for different surfaces (examples):
      • Bare metal air‑outlet grilles (built‑in): 38 K
      • Coated metal air‑outlet grilles: 42 K
      • Glass/ceramic grilles: 51 K
      • Plastic surfaces (>0.4 mm): 58–62 K depending on location
      • Some surfaces for fan heaters permit higher rises (e.g., up to 175 K for certain outlet grilles)
    • Exclusions: undersides, rear surfaces parallel to the wall (in specified conditions), and surfaces inaccessible to IEC 61032 test probe 41.
  • Construction and test probe references: Clause updates replace generic “test rod” wording with the specific probe described in Table 101 and Figure 104.
  • Supply cord requirements: Heaters intended for outdoor use must use polychloroprene‑sheathed or equivalent elastomer cords, not lighter than code designation 60245 IEC 57.
  • Thermocouple reference: IEC 60584‑1 used for thermocouple specifications (Type K recommended in probe key).

Applications and users

  • Manufacturers of electric room heaters - for product design and compliance.
  • Testing and certification laboratories performing type‑approval and routine safety tests.
  • Compliance engineers, safety assessors and conformity assessment bodies verifying EN/IEC safety requirements for market access in Europe.
  • Automotive suppliers developing stationary vehicle cabin heaters (parking heaters).

Die Norm SIST EN 60335-2-30:2010/A2:2022 behandelt die Sicherheit elektrischer Heizgeräte für Haushalts- und ähnliche Anwendungen. Der Anwendungsbereich dieser europäischen Norm umfasst Heizgeräte, deren Nennspannung 250 V für einphasige Geräte und 480 V für andere Geräte nicht überschreitet. Ein besonderer Aspekt dieser Norm ist die Sicherheit elektrischer Heizgeräte, die für die Beheizung von Fahrer- und Passagierkabinen von Kraftfahrzeugen während des Stillstands vorgesehen sind, wobei auch hier die Nennspannung 250 V nicht überschreitet. Ein wesentlicher Stärke dieser Norm liegt in der umfassenden Betrachtung der Sicherheitsanforderungen, die speziell auf elektrische Raumheizer ausgerichtet sind. Sie bietet klare Richtlinien, die sicherstellen, dass diese Geräte unter verschiedenen Verwendungsbedingungen sicher betrieben werden können. Die speziellen Anforderungen für Heizgeräte in Kraftfahrzeugen sind besonders relevant, da sie hohen Sicherheitsstandards genügen müssen, um das Risiko von Unfällen oder Überhitzung zu minimieren. Die Relevanz der SIST EN 60335-2-30:2010/A2:2022 wird durch die wachsende Verwendung elektrischer Heizgeräte in Haushalten und im Automobilsektor unterstrichen. Diese Norm adressiert nicht nur die Sicherheit der Geräte selbst, sondern auch den Schutz der Benutzer und der Umwelt, indem sie Anforderungen definiert, die dazu beitragen, gefährliche Situationen zu vermeiden. Zusammenfassend ist die Norm SIST EN 60335-2-30:2010/A2:2022 ein entscheidender Schritt in der Standardisierung und Sicherheit von elektrischen Heizgeräten, der klare Vorgaben und Richtlinien bereithält, um die Sicherheit sowohl im Haushalt als auch in Kraftfahrzeugen zu gewährleisten.
