Standard EN Sample
Household and Similar Electrical Appliances - Safety - Particular Requirements for Commercial Electric Tumble Dryers
Also Known As:
A European standard known as BS EN 50570:2013+A1:2018 is focused on the safety standards for commercial electric tumble dryers used in a variety of locations, including hotels, hospitals, factories, light industries, farms, laundromats, and communal wash rooms. The guideline applies to both tumble dryers intended for trained users and those used in public spaces by non-experts.
The rated voltage for these tumble dryers shouldn't be higher than 480 V for some types and 250 V for single-phase versions. The standard also specifies safety precautions for tumble dryers that dry textiles using a refrigeration system with sealed motor compressors. The safety precautions pertaining to such systems are covered by the standard because these devices may employ flammable refrigerants.
It is significant to note that the standards for tumble dryers powered by alternative energy sources are not covered by this standard. However, within the parameters of the standard, the potential effects of these alternative energy sources on the machines are taken into account.
