DANSK DSF/FPREN IEC 60519-1 PDF

This part of IEC 60519 specifies the general safety requirements for industrial installations or equipment intended for electroheating (EH) and electroheating based treatment technologies as well as for electromagnetic processing of materials (EPM). This document deals with the significant hazards, hazardous situations or hazardous events relevant to industrial EH and EPM equipment, as listed in Annex A, for normal operation and for single-fault condition as well as under conditions of misuse that are reasonably foreseeable. This document specifies the requirements intended to be met by the manufacturer to ensure the safety of persons and property during the complete life cycle of the equipment from design through commissioning, operation, maintenance, inspection, to decommissioning, as well as in the event of foreseeable single-fault condition that can occur in the equipment. These General Requirements apply to all industrial EH and EPM equipment, unless an exception is given in the Particular Requirements dealing with specific equipment in other parts of IEC 60519. The provisions of other parts of IEC 60519 that directly apply to specific types of equipment take precedence over the provisions of this document. Annex I and J provide orientation with respect to the application of ISO 13577- 1 in combination with this standard. The rated voltage of EH and EPM equipment can be in the range of low voltage, details are given in Clause 4.2.
