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

General a) This consumer safety standard 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. Portable fuel cell power systems that provide output levels that exceed these electrical limits are covered by IEC 62282-5-1. b) Externally accessible circuitry is therefore considered to be safety extra low voltage (SELV) circuitry as defined in IEC 60950-1:2005, and as limited power circuits if further compliance with 2.5 of IEC 60950-1:2005 is demonstrated. Micro fuel cell power systems or units that have internal circuitry exceeding 60 V d.c. or 240 VA should be appropriately evaluated in accordance with the separate criteria of IEC 60950-1:2005. c) This consumer safety standard covers all micro fuel cell power systems, micro fuel cell power units and fuel cartridges. This standard 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 fuel cartridges covered by this standard are not intended to be refilled by the consumer. Fuel cartridges refilled by the manufacturer or by trained technicians shall meet all requirements of this standard. d) These products are not intended for use in hazardous areas as defined by IEV 426-03-01.

Splošno a) Ta standard za varnost potrošnikov zajema sisteme mikro gorivnih celic, energetske enote mikro gorivnih celic in gorivne vložke, ki se lahko nosijo ali brez težav ročno prenašajo in zagotavljajo izhodni enosmerni tok, ki ne presega 60 V, in izhodno moč, ki ne presega 240 VA. Prenosni sistemi gorivnih celic, ki zagotavljajo izhodne ravni, ki presegajo te električne mejne vrednosti, so zajeti v IEC 62282-5-1. b) Zunanje dosegljivo vezje velja za vezje z varnostno malo napetostjo (SELV), kot opredeljuje IEC 60950-1:2005, in za vezje z omejeno močjo, če se dokaže nadaljnja skladnost z 2.5 IEC 60950-1:2005. Sistemi ali enote mikro gorivnih celic z notranjim vezjem, ki presega 60 V enosmernega toka ali 240 VA, je treba primerno ovrednotiti v skladu z ločenimi merili IEC 60950-1:2005.  c) Ta standard za varstvo potrošnikov zajema vse sisteme napajanja z mikro gorivnimi celicami, energetske enote mikro gorivnih celic in gorivne vložke. Ta standard vzpostavlja zahteve za vse napajalne sisteme z mikro gorivnimi celicami, energetske enote mikro gorivnih celic in gorivne vložke za zagotavljanje razumne stopnje varnosti pri normalni uporabi, razumno predvideni napačni uporabi in potrošnikovem prevažanju takšnih predmetov. Gorivni vložki, ki jih zajema ta standard, niso namenjeni ponovnemu polnjenju s strani potrošnika.  Gorivni vložki, ki jih ponovno polni proizvajalec ali usposobljen tehnik, morajo ustrezati vsem zahtevam tega standarda. d) Ti proizvodi niso namenjeni za uporabo v nevarnih območjih, kot jih opredeljuje IEV 426-03-01..

leakage. No leakage of Class 8 (corrosive) borohydride fuel, fuel by-products, electrolyte
or liquid fuel components. Leakage of Class 8 (corrosive) borohydride fuel, fuel
byproducts, electrolyte, and liquid fuel components shall be determined visually using pH
indicator as specified in the leakage measurement and test procedure in Subclause
E.7.2.1 for the fuel cartridge and the micro fuel cell power system or unit. Hydrogen
leakage shall meet the no hydrogen leakage requirements of Subclause E.7.2.2 for the
fuel cartridge and the micro fuel cell power system or unit. Fire and flame shall be checked
using cheesecloth, infrared camera, or other suitable methods. Explosion shall be checked
visually to verify that there is no disturbance to the micro fuel cell power system/unit.
Emissions shall meet the passing criteria in E.7.3.12. If the micro fuel cell power
system/unit does not operate but emissions do not exceed the limits of E.7.3.12, the
emission test is acceptable.

E.7.2.2 for the fuel cartridge. Fire and flame shall be checked using cheesecloth, infrared
camera, or other suitable methods. Explosion shall be checked visually.
E.7.3.5 Drop test
Replace, under item c), the existing text of points 7), 8), and 9) with the following new text:
7) Perform the following leakage tests:
i) For the fuel cartridge, perform leakage tests in accordance with E.7.2.1, hydrogen
leakage measurements in accordance with E.7.2.2. See Figure E.2.
ii) For the micro fuel cell power system or unit, perform visual inspection for leakage
using pH paper in accordance with E.7.2.1a, and then perform hydrogen gas loss
testing in accordance with E.7.2.3 (including emission testing in accordance with
E.7.3.12). See Figure E.4.
iii) If the micro fuel cell power system or unit contains a fuel cartridge or an internal
reservoir that contains hydrogen gas above ambient pressure, perform hydrogen
leakage measurements in accordance with E.7.2.2.
Replace the existing text of item d) with the following new text:
d) Passing criteria: No fire or flame at any time. No explosion at any time. No hydrogen
leakage. No leakage of Class 8 (corrosive) borohydride fuel, fuel by-products, electrolyte

byproducts, electrolyte, and liquid fuel components shall be determined visually using pH
indicator as specified in the leakage measurement and test procedure in Subclause
E.7.2.1. Hydrogen leakage shall meet the no hydrogen leakage requirements of Subclause
E.7.2.2 for the fuel cartridge. Fire and flame shall be checked using cheesecloth, infrared
camera, or other suitable methods. Explosion shall be checked visually to verify that there
is no disturbance to the micro fuel cell power system/unit. Emissions shall meet the
passing criteria in E.7.3.12. If the micro fuel cell power system/unit does not operate but
emissions do not exceed the limits of Subclause E.7.3.12, the emission test is acceptable.
