AUTOMATIC ELECTRICAL CONTROLS –

Part 2-6: Particular requirements for automatic electrical
pressure sensing controls including mechanical requirements

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence
between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in
the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of
patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard IEC 60730-2-6 has been prepared IEC technical committee 72:
Automatic electrical controls.
This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 2007. This edition
constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical
changes with respect to the previous edition:
a) aligns the text with IEC 60730-1, Edition 5;
b) modifies requirements for Class B control function (H.27.1.2.2);
c) modifies requirements for Class C control function (H.27.1.2.3);
d) modifies requirements for faults during lock-out or safety- shut-down.

Full information on the voting for the approval of this standard can be found in the report on
voting indicated in the above table.
This publication has been drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
This part 2 is intended to be used in conjunction with IEC 60730-1. It was established on the
basis of the fifth edition (2013) of that publication. Consideration may be given to future
editions of, or amendments to, IEC 60730-1.
This part 2 supplements or modifies the corresponding clauses in IEC 60730-1 so as to
convert that publication into the IEC standard: Particular requirements for automatic electrical
pressure sensing controls including mechanical requirements.
Where this part 2 states "addition", "modification", or "replacement", the relevant requirement,
test specification or explanatory matter in part 1 should be adapted accordingly.
Where no change is necessary, this part 2 indicates that the relevant clause or subclause
applies.
In the development of a fully international standard, it has been necessary to take into
consideration the differing requirements resulting from practical experience in various parts of
the world and to recognize the variation in national electrical systems and wiring rules.
The “in some countries” notes regarding differing national practices are contained in the
following subclauses:
10.1.4

10.1.4 Addition:
NOTE In the USA, controls for operation above 50 V shall be provided with suitable wiring terminals or leads for
the connection of fixed wiring conductors having an ampere rating of no less than:
– 1,25 times the ampere rating of a fixed electric space-heating equipment load;
– 1,25 times the full-load motor current rating of a single motor;
– 1,25 times the combination load of a full-load motor current and 1,25 times a fixed electric space-heating
equipment load;

– 1,25 times the full load current of the largest motor plus the full load amperes of the other loads;
– 1,0 times all other loads.
11 Constructional requirements
This clause of Part 1 is applicable except as follows:
11.4 Actions
Additional subclause:
11.4.101 Type 2.N action
A Type 2.N action shall be so designed that in the event of a leak in the sensing element, or
in any other part between the sensing element and the switch head, the declared
disconnection or interruption is provided before the sum of the declared operating pressure
and drift is exceeded.
Compliance is checked by the following test:
The operating pressure of a Type 2.N control shall be measured under the conditions of
Clause 15 of Part 1. If the control has means for setting, it shall be set to the highest value.
After this measurement, a hole is artificially produced in the sensing element and the
measurement of the operating pressure is repeated.
No positive drift is allowed beyond the declared value.
A separate shroud or sleeve may be employed for protection of the sensing element to
achieve conformance with Clause 18.
NOTE The test can be replaced by theoretical computations of the physical mode of operation.
