DANSK DSF/PREN 50270 PDF

This document specifies requirements for the electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) for electrical apparatus for the detection and measurement of combustible gases, toxic gases or oxygen which are subject to the performance standards for gas detection apparatus, for example EN 45544 (all parts), EN 50104, EN 50194 (all parts), EN 50291 (all parts), EN 50379 (all parts), EN 50543, EN 50545 1, EN 60079 29 1 or EN 60079 29 4. NOTE – For the purpose of this standard, the word ‘toxic’ covers ‘very toxic’, ‘toxic’, ‘harmful’, ‘corrosive‘, ‘irritating‘, ‘sensitizing‘, ‘carcinogenic‘, ‘mutagenic‘ and ‘teratogenic‘. This document applies to apparatus intended for use in residential, commercial and light-industrial environments as well as to apparatus intended for use in industrial environments, and includes AC-, DC- or battery powered apparatus. This document is also applicable to apparatus which is intended for use in hazardous areas which could contain explosive or potentially explosive atmospheres. It covers only normal operation and does not cover safety requirements related to EMC phenomena. This document is a product standard which is based on the product family standard EN 61326 1. prEN 50270:2019 takes precedence over the product family standard and over generic standards. This document applies to electrical apparatus for the detection and measurement of combustible gases, toxic gases or oxygen that include functions specified by the manufacturer as being safety functions and can include functions specified as not being safety functions. All performance standards for the detection and measurement of combustible gases, toxic gases or oxygen include the minimum requirements for functional safety specified in EN 50271. There are also gas detectors and gas detection systems which are intended to be used with safety integrity levels SIL 1 to SIL 3 according to EN 50402 and EN 61508 (all parts). For functional safety in industrial applications, this document has taken ...
