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

UL 61010-2-061 (IEC 61010-2-061:2015)

1 Scope and object

This clause of Part 1 is applicable except as follows:

1.1 Scope

1.1.1 Equipment included in scope – Replacement: Replace the text by the following: This part of IEC 61010 applies to electrically powered laboratory atomic spectrometers with thermal atomization.

NOTE 1 Examples include atomic absorption spectrometers, emission flame photometers, atomic fluorescence spectrophotometers, inductively coupled plasma spectrometers, microwave coupled plasma spectrometers and mass spectrometers, all with thermal atomization and ionization (including tubing and connectors which are provided by the manufacturer for connection to external supplies).

NOTE 2 If all or part of the equipment falls within the scope of one or more other part 2 standards of IEC 61010 as well as within the scope of this standard, consideration is to be given to those other part 2 standards.

1.1.2 Equipment excluded from scope – Addition: Add as the first paragraph: This standard does not apply to thermal atomization detectors (flame ionization detectors) used in gas chromatography.
