Rational Issue manager:

Most common modifications are based on the outcome of an CLC TC61 working group in 2007 following
mandate M397 from 2006. These include classification system, maximum irradiance, additional or modified
warnings.

The European classification system is based on the spectral output of the appliances, while the IEC
classification devides appliances in household use and commercial use appliances.

In clause 22.111 an example to calculate XY code ranges is modified, since the maximum X-code in Europe
is much lower than in the IEC standard mentioned. To reduce uncertainty to users of the standard the
example is recalculated for suitable lamps in the European market.

A mistake in the IEC text in paragraph 32.101 is corrected and the wrong link to the calculation of the yearly
dose is deleted.


The numbering system for European clauses, subclauses, notes, tables, figures and annexes that are additional
to those in the IEC standard are prefixed with the letter “Z”.
This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CENELEC by the European Commission and the
European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of EU Directive. For the relationship with
EU Directives see informative Annex ZZA and ZZB which are an integral part of this document.
In the official version, for bibliography, the following notes have to be added for the standards indicated:
IEC 60335-2-23 NOTE
Harmonized as EN 60335-2-23.
IEC 60335-2-53 NOTE
Harmonized as EN 60335-2-53.

This standard deals with the reasonably foreseeable hazards presented by appliances that are encountered by
all persons in and around the installation place. However, in general, it does not take into account:

– children playing with the appliance;
– the use of the appliance by children;
It is recognized that very vulnerable people may have needs beyond the level addressed in this standard.
Add as a new paragraph:
Additional requirements for appliances with moving parts are given in Annex ZE.

6.Z101 Appliances shall be one of the following types with respect to the type of ultraviolet radiation:
– UV type 1 appliance;
– UV type 2 appliance;
– UV type 3 appliance;
– UV type 4 appliance.
Compliance is checked by inspection and by the relevant tests.
NOTE Z101 UV type 1 appliances and UV type 2 appliances are intended to be used in tanning salons, beauty parlours
and similar premises, under supervision of appropriately trained persons.
UV type 3 appliances are suitable for household and similar use and may be used by unskilled persons. They are also
suitable for use in tanning salons, beauty parlours and similar premises
UV type 4 appliances are only to be used following medical advice and only intended to be used in tanning salons, beauty
parlours and similar premises, under supervision of appropriately trained persons, and not for household use

7.1 Replace the first paragraph by:
Appliances having UV emitters shall be marked with the appropriate UV type number in the following
form:
UV type X
NOTE Z101 X is replaced by the appropriate number present in Annex BB.
Add the following sentence as the first sentence of the warning before Note 102.
Not to be used by persons under the age of 18 years.
Add after Note 102:
UV type 4 appliances shall be marked with the substance of the following:
WARNING: Only to be used following medical advice.
7.6 Delete the sub-clause
7.12
Replace the fifth bullet point by:
• persons having more than 16 moles (2 mm or more in diameter) on the body;

Add after the tenth bullet point:
• persons having a first-degree relative with a history of melanoma;
Replace after the thirdteens dashed item the following:
– recommended schedule of exposure specifying duration and intervals (based on the UV emitter
characteristics, distances and skin sensitivity), see Annex DD and Annex ZA;
In the fourth paragraph of EN 60335-1 delete the words “children aged from 8 years and above and”.

Addition:

If appliances are not suitable for use in areas open to the public the instructions shall state the substance of
the following:
WARNING: This appliance shall not be installed in areas where general public including children have access.

7.14 Delete the sub-clause

6 Modification to clause 20, "Stability and mechanical hazards"

20.2
Add after the second dashed item of part 1 in the compliance criteria the following:
However, test probe 18 of EN 61032 is not applied for commercial UV appliances, IR appliances and
VIS appliances not intended to be used in areas open to public

7 Modification to clause 22, "Construction"
22.55 Modification
Replace the first sentence of the fourth paragraph of Part 1 with the following:
For appliances intended to be used in areas open to the public, the devices used to stop operational
functions, if any, shall be distinguished from other manual devices by means of shape, or size, or surface
texture, or position, etc.
Replace in the NOTE Z2 “start/stop” by “stop” (in two places).

22.111
Replace the Note by:
NOTE An example of the equivalency code range calculation is as follows.
If the equivalency code of the lamp fitted in the appliance during type testing is
100–R–25/2,7
the equivalency code range that must be marked on the appliance is calculated as follows:
lower value of X range: 0,75 × 25 = 18,75
lower value of Y range: 0,75 × 2,7 = 2,03
upper value of Y range: 1,25 × 2,7 = 3,38
X is to be rounded to the nearest integer, Y is to be rounded to the nearest first decimal.
The fluorescent UV lamp equivalency code range is then:
100–R–(19-25)/(2,0-3,4)
8 Modification to clause 30, "Resistance to heat and fire"
30.2 Add the following note:

NOTE Z1  The combination of a lampholder and a fluorescent lamp used for skin exposure to ultraviolet and infrared radiation is not
considered to be a luminaire. EN 60598-1 is not the standard to be used in this case.
