Displacement and dynamic compressors — Performance test code for electric driven low-pressure air compressor packages
Scope:
This document specifies the performance test method of electrically driven low-pressure air compressor packages, where the compression is performed by positive displacement or dynamic compression; utilising atmospheric air as the compression gas. Low-pressure air compressor packages are often referred to as “blowers”.
NOTE Throughout this document, the term ‘low-pressure compressor’ is used to describe a low-pressure air compressor (“blower”) package
Low-pressure compressors with and without means of controlling flow (control may be electrical (e.g. with a variable frequency drive) or mechanical or both) are covered.
This document applies to low-pressure compressors meeting all the following limits:
— Atmospheric inlet air pressure between 0,5 bar and 1,1 bar.
— Discharge vs inlet pressure differential between 0,1 bar and 2,5 bar.
— Discharge vs inlet pressure ratio between 1,1 and 3,5.
This document is not applicable to:
— positive displacement low-pressure compressors with a liquid in the compression element (such as liquid ring pumps and liquid injected low-pressure compressor of screw type)
— multi-stage low-pressure compressors other than multistage centrifugal compressors comprised of multiple, identical or very similar uncooled sections along a single shaft (repeating stages).
— single shaft, multistage centrifugal compressors are treated from the point of measurement and calculation as a single stage

Scope:
IEC 60335-2-40 deals with the safety of electric heat pumps, sanitary hot water heat pumps and air conditioners, incorporating motor compressors as well as hydronic fan coils units, dehumidifiers (with or without motor compressors), thermoelectric heat pumps and partial units. Their maximum rated voltage is not more than 300 V for single-phase appliances and 600 V for multi-phase appliances.
Appliances not intended for normal household use but which nevertheless can be a danger to the public, such as appliances intended to be used by laymen in shops, in light industry and on farms, are covered by IEC 60335-2-40.
As far as practical, IEC 60335-2-40 deals with common hazards presented by appliances encountered in normal use and assumes that competent persons safely handle installation, servicing, decommissioning, and disposal and that accidental release of refrigerants is avoided. However, it does not prescribe the criteria to ensure the competence of persons during installation, servicing and disposal. Safety requirements during disposal are not specified.
IEC 60335-2-40:2022 text has been approved in Europe as EN IEC 60335-2-40:2024 without any changes.

Examples of the types of fans that this standard is applicable to are
- ceiling fans;
- duct fans;
- infant fans;
- partition fans;
- pedestal fans;
- table fans.
This standard also applies to separate controls supplied with fans.
Infant fans are also tested to the applicable requirements of the ISO 8124 series, since it covers hazards other than those arising from the use of electricity such as toxicological hazards.
Appliances not intended for normal household use but which nevertheless can be a source of danger to the public, such as appliances intended for use in shops, in light industry and on farms, are within the scope of this standard.
As far as is practicable, this standard deals with the common hazards presented by appliances that are encountered by all persons in and around the home. However, in general, it does not take into account:
- 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;
- children playing with the appliance.
Attention is drawn to the fact that
- for appliances intended to be used in vehicles or on-board ships or aircraft, additional requirements can be necessary;
- in many countries additional requirements are specified by the national health authorities, the national authorities responsible for the protection of labour and similar authorities.
This standard does not apply to
- appliances intended exclusively for industrial purposes;
- 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);
- fans incorporated in other appliances.
This fourth edition cancels and replaces the third edition published in 2015. This edition constitutes a technical revision.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
a) alignment with IEC 60335-1:2020;
b) conversion of some notes to normative text (Clause 1);
c) introduction of requirements for infant fans (7.12, 7.12.1, 8.1.1, 11.8, 20.2, 21.103, 22.44, 22.54, 22.102, B.22.3, B.22.4);

Household and similar electrical appliances - Safety - Part 2-80: Particular requirements for fans
Scope:
IEC 60335-2-80:2015(E) deals with the safety of electric fans for household and similar purposes, their rated voltage being not more than 250 V for single-phase appliances and 480 V for other appliances. Examples of fans that are within the scope of this standard are ceiling fans; duct fans; partition fans; pedestal fans and table fans. This standard also applies to separate controls supplied with fans. Appliances not intended for normal household use but which nevertheless may be a source of danger to the public, such as appliances intended to be used by laymen in shops, in light industry and on farms, are within the scope of this standard. As far as is practicable, this standard deals with the common hazards presented by appliances that are encountered by all persons in and around the home. However, in general, it does not take into account 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. It also does not take into account children playing with the appliance.
It was established on the basis of the fifth edition (2010) of that standard. This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 2002, its Amendment 1 (2007) and its Amendment 2 (2011). It constitutes a technical revision. The principal changes in this edition as compared with the second edition of IEC 60335-2-80 are as follows (minor changes are not listed):
- added definition for ceiling fan suspension system (3.102);
- added instructions for ceiling fan maintenance (7.12);
- added instructions for ceiling fan installation (7.12.1);
- added entrapment assessment criteria for table and pedestal fan with a fan head that oscillates in the up-down direction (20.102);
- added requirements for insulation of pre-installed internal wiring used to supply attached luminaires (22.101);
- added suspension system failure protection requirements for ceiling fans (22.102);
- added motor brush wear requirements (27.3).
The attention of National Committees is drawn to the fact that equipment manufacturers and testing organizations may need a transitional period following publication of a new, amended or revised IEC publication in which to make products in accordance with the new requirements and to equip themselves for conducting new or revised tests. It is the recommendation of the committee that the content of this standard be adopted for implementation nationally not earlier than 12 months or later than 36 months from the date of its publication.

Plastics piping systems - Glass-reinforced thermosetting plastics (GRP) pipes and fittings - Methods for regression analysis and their use (ISO 10928:2024)
Scope:
This document specifies procedures suitable for the analysis of data which, when converted into logarithms of the values, have either a normal or a skewed distribution. It is intended for use with test methods and referring standards for glass-reinforced thermosetting plastics (GRP) pipes or fittings for the analysis of properties as a function of time. However, it can also be used for the analysis of other data.
Two methods are specified, which are used depending on the nature of the data. Extrapolation using these
techniques typically extends a trend from data gathered over a period of approximately 10 000 h to a
prediction of the property at 50 years, which is the typical maximum extrapolation time.
This document only addresses the analysis of data. The test procedures for collecting the data, the number of samples required and the time period over which data are collected are covered by the referring standards and/ or test methods. Clause 6 discusses how the data analysis methods are applied to product testing and design.
