SAFETY REQUIREMENTS FOR ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT FOR
MEASUREMENT, CONTROL, AND LABORATORY USE –

Part 2-061: Particular requirements for laboratory atomic
spectrometers with thermal atomization and ionization

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 61010-2-061 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 66:
Safety of measuring, control and laboratory equipment.
It has the status of a group safety publication in accordance with IEC Guide 104.
This fourth edition cancels and replaces the third edition published in 2015. This edition
constitutes a technical revision.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous
edition:
a) adaptation of changes introduced by Amendment 1 of IEC 61010-1;
b) added tolerance for stability of AC voltage test equipment to Clause 6;

---------------------- Page: 7 ----------------------

– 4 – IEC 61010-2-061:2018 © IEC 2018
c) added requirement for interlock systems containing electric/electronic or programmable
components to Clause 15.
The text of this International Standard is based on the following documents:
CDV Report on voting
66/643/CDV 66/668/RVC

Full information on the voting for the approval of this International Standard can be found in
the report on voting indicated in the above table.
This document has been drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
A list of all parts of the IEC 61010 series, under the general title, Safety requirements for
electrical equipment for measurement, control, and laboratory use, may be found on the IEC
website.
This Part 2-061 is intended to be used in conjunction with IEC 61010-1. It was established on
the basis of the third edition (2010) and its Amendment 1 (2016).
This Part 2-061 supplements or modifies the corresponding clauses in IEC 61010-1 so as to
convert that publication into the IEC standard: Particular requirements for laboratory atomic
spectrometers with thermal atomization and ionization.
Where a particular subclause of Part 1 is not mentioned in this Part 2, that subclause applies
as far as is reasonable. Where this part states “addition”, “modification” or “replacement”, or
“deletion”, the relevant requirement, test specification or note in Part 1 should be adapted
accordingly.
In this standard:
1) the following print types are used:
– requirements: in roman type;
– NOTES: in small roman type;
– conformity and test: in italic type;
– terms used throughout this standard which have been defined in Clause 3: SMALL
ROMAN CAPITALS;
2) subclauses, figures, tables and notes which are additional to those in Part 1 are numbered
starting from 101. The additional annexes are lettered starting from AA and additional list
items are lettered from aa).
The committee has decided that the contents of this document will remain unchanged until the
stability date indicated on the IEC website under "http://webstore.iec.ch" in the data related to
the specific document. At this date, the document will be
• reconfirmed,
• withdrawn,
• replaced by a revised edition, or
• amended.

This document contains no technical changes to already accepted base documents (IEC 61010-1:2010
and its amendment 1:2016 and IEC 61010-2-061:2015) but two; Clause 6.8.3.1 is modified because
otherwise it would need a specific European deviation in order to be harmonised to the LVD
2014/35/EU (ref. NAC assessment of IEC 61010-1/A1) and in 15.1 an alternative way to determine the
requirements for interlocks is added. Further technical development is reserved for a new amendment
or edition to be initiated separately as necessary.
This alignment is realised as a new 4th edition of IEC 61010-2-061 simply because of document control;
the previous edition 3.0 is based on the third edition of IEC 61010-1:2010 (without the Amendment
1:2016) and amending it to incorporate the contents of IEC 61010-1 Amendment 1 would need an
unnecessary repeating of the requirements in that amendment 1 that are not particular for the
equipment in the scope of IEC 61010-2-061. Furthermore, technically, one would need to follow 4
documents in parallel to get the full text of this part 2 (61010-1:2010, 61010-1 A1:2016, 61010-2-
061:2015, and 61010-2-061 A1).With this approach, and when the consolidated version of IEC 61010-
1:2010/A1:2016 conveniently is published, only two documents are needed.

40 FOREWORD
41 1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
42 all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
43 international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
44 this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
45 Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
46 Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
47 in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
48 governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
49 with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
50 agreement between the two organizations.
51 2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
52 consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
53 interested IEC National Committees.
54 3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
55 Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
56 Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
57 misinterpretation by any end user.
58 4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
59 transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence
60 between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in
61 the latter.
62 5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
63 assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
64 services carried out by independent certification bodies.
65 6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
66 7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
67 members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
68 other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
69 expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
70 Publications.
71 8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
72 indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
73 9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of
74 patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
75 International Standard IEC 61010-2-061 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 66:
76 Safety of measuring, control and laboratory equipment.
77 It has the status of a group safety publication in accordance with IEC Guide 104.
78 This third fourth edition cancels and replaces the second third edition published in 201503. It
79 constitutes a technical revision and includes the following changes from the second third
80 edition:
81 • adaptation of changes introduced by Amendment 1 of IEC 61010-1;
82 • added tolerance for stability of a.c. voltage test equipment to Clause 6;
83 • added requirement for interlock systems containing electric/electronic or programmable
84 components to Clause 15;

88 Full information on the voting for the approval of this standard can be found in the report on
89 voting indicated in the above table.
90 This publication has been drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
91 A list of all parts of the IEC 61010 series, under the general title: Safety requirements for
92 electrical equipment for measurement, control, and laboratory use, may be found on the IEC
93 website.
94 This Part 2-061 is intended to be used in conjunction with IEC 61010-1. It was established on
95 the basis of the third edition (2010) and its Amendment 1 (2016). This Part 2-061 supplements
96 or modifies the corresponding clauses in IEC 61010-1 so as to convert that publication into
97 the IEC standard: Safety requirements for laboratory atomic spectrometers with thermal
98 atomization and ionization.
99 Where a particular subclause of Part 1 is not mentioned in this part 2, that subclause applies
100 as far as is reasonable. Where this part states “addition”, “modification” or “replacement”, or
101 “deletion”, the relevant requirement, test specification or note in Part 1 should be adapted
102 accordingly.
103 In this standard:
104 1) the following print types are used:
105 – requirements: in roman type;
106 – NOTES: in small roman type;
107 – conformity and test: in italic type;
108 – terms used throughout this standard which have been defined in clause 3: SMALL ROMAN
109 CAPITALS;
110 2) subclauses, figures, tables and notes which are additional to those in Part 1 are numbered
111 starting from 101. The additional annexes are lettered starting from AA.
112 The committee has decided that the contents of this publication will remain unchanged until
113 the stability date indicated on the IEC web site under "http://webstore.iec.ch" in the data
114 related to the specific publication. At this date, the publication will be
115 • reconfirmed,
116 • withdrawn,
117 • replaced by a revised edition, or
118 • amended.
