IEC 60335-2-27:2019 deals with the safety of electrical appliances incorporating emitters for exposing the skin to optical radiation (wavelength 100 nm to 1 mm), for household and similar use, their rated voltage being not more than 250 V for single-phase appliances and 480 V for other appliances.
\nBattery-operated appliances and other DC supplied appliances are within the scope of this standard. Dual supply appliances, either mains-supplied or battery-operated, are regarded as battery-operated appliances when operated in the battery mode.
\nAs far as practicable, this standard deals with the common hazards presented by appliances that are encountered by all persons using the appliances in tanning salons, beauty parlours and similar premises or at home. However, in general, it does not take into account
\n\u2013 persons (including children) whose physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge prevents them from using the appliance safely without supervision or instruction;
\n\u2013 children playing with the appliance.
\nAttention is drawn to the fact that
\n\u2013 for appliances intended to be used in vehicles or on board ships or aircraft, additional requirements can be necessary;
\n\u2013 in many countries, additional requirements are specified by the national health authorities, the national authorities responsible for the protection of labour and similar authorities;
\n\u2013 IEC 60598-1 is applicable as far as is reasonable.
\nThis standard does not apply to
\n\u2013 appliances for skin or hair care (IEC 60335-2-23);
\n\u2013 sauna heating appliances and infrared cabins (IEC 60335-2-53);
\n\u2013 cosmetic and beauty care appliances incorporating lasers and intense light sources (IEC 60335-2-113)
\n\u2013 appliances for medical purposes (IEC 60601);
\n\u2013 appliances that use UV radiation for purposes other than tanning the skin;
\n\u2013 appliances intended to be used in locations where special conditions prevail, such as the presence of a corrosive or explosive atmosphere (dust, vapour or gas).
\nThis sixth edition cancels and replaces the fifth edition published in 2009, Amendment 1:2012 and Amendment 2:2015. This edition constitutes a technical revision.
\nThis edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
\n\u2013 aligns the text with IEC 60335-1, Ed 5, and its Amendments 1 and 2;
\n\u2013 luminous transmission has been defined (3.1.102);
\n\u2013 requirements for testing parts of the appliance that are operated unattended are added (30.2).
\nThis part 2 is to be used in conjunction with the latest edition of IEC 60335-1 and its amendments. It was established on the basis of the fifth edition (2010) of that standard.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
