Certification and standards information:
The ICELL8 cx fulfills the following requirements: EN 61010-1:1993 + A2:1995/IEC 61010-1:1990
+ A1:1992 + A2:1995.
Safety specifications are also met under the following environmental conditions, which are in
addition to those stated in the operating conditions:
•
Installation Category (overvoltage category) II according to IEC 60664-1.
The
Installation Category defines the level of transient overvoltage which the instrument is
designed to withstand safely. It depends on the nature of the electricity supply and its means
of overvoltage protection. For example, in CAT II, which is the category typically used for
instruments in hospital, research, and industrial laboratories, the expected transient
overvoltage is 2,500 V for a 230-V supply and 1,500 V for a 120-V supply.
•
Pollution Degree 2 according to IEC 60664-1.
Pollution Degree 2 assumes that normally
only nonconductive pollution (e.g., dust) are present in the operating environment, with the
exception of occasional conductivity caused by condensation.
Both the Installation Category (overvoltage category) and the Pollution Degree affect the
dimensioning of electrical insulation within the instrument.
