Automatic Electrical Controls for Household and Similar Use - Part 2: Particular Requirements for Automatic Electrical Pressure Sensing Controls Including Mechanical Requirements
Also Known As:
A standard for automatic electrical pressure sensing controls used in home appliances and comparable equipment is CAN/CSA-E730-2-6-94 (R2013). These controls are intended to react to or regulate pressure or vacuum in a variety of applications, including heating, cooling, and related functions. These controls' electrical and mechanical properties are covered by the precise specifications defined in the standard, ensuring their intended functionality and inherent safety.
The requirement is applicable to controllers with a gauge pressure rating of at least -60 kPa and at most 4.2 MPa. It includes controllers that can function mechanically or electrically and whose rated voltage and current, respectively, do not exceed 660 V and 63 A.
It's crucial to remember that pressure sensing controllers specifically made for industrial purposes are not covered by this standard. Additionally, the response value of an automatic control action is not taken into account because it may change based on how the control is mounted in the piece of equipment.
The standard also covers the specifications for manual controls that are physically or electrically connected to pressure-sensing controls. It also notes that Appendix H contains special standards for controllers incorporating electronic devices.
