Safety of Household and Similar Electrical Appliances - Part 2: Particular Requirements for Wet and Dry Vacuum Cleaners, Including Power Brush, for Industrial and Commercial Use
Also Known As: CAN/CSA E60335-2-69-01
The safety criteria for wet and dry vacuum cleaners used in industrial and commercial settings are the topic of standard CSA E60335-2-69:01 (R2020). It includes all types of electrically powered vacuum cleaners, including portable and fixed machines made for sucking wet, dry, or wet/dry materials. The standard covers vacuum cleaners used for purposes other than basic housekeeping in a variety of commercial contexts, including hotels, schools, hospitals, factories, shops, and offices.
It is crucial to remember that this standard also applies to vacuum cleaners that work with liquids or potentially dangerous materials like asbestos, which may be subject to extra national regulations. In order to ensure that their influence is taken into account in terms of safety requirements, the standard also considers appliances whose motors use alternative kinds of energy.
There are also changes to take note of. The scope of this standard excludes household appliances covered by IEC 335-2-2, centrally located stationary vacuum cleaning systems, and appliances designed for use in locations with specific characteristics (such as an explosive or corrosive atmosphere). Another comment refers to IEC 335-2-72 for precise specifications on battery-operated appliances.
