What is BS EN IEC 60730-2-7 about?
BS EN IEC 60730-2-7 discusses timers and time switches. BS EN IEC 60730-2-7 specifies requirements for timers and time switches that operate an electric switch are controlled by the timing mechanism.
Note 1: BS EN IEC 60730-2-7 applies to timers and time switches that use electricity, gas, oil, solid fuel, solar thermal energy, etc. or a combination thereof, including heating, air conditioning and similar applications.
Note 2: BS EN IEC 60730-2-7 applicable to individual timers utilized as a part of a control system or timers which are mechanically integral with multifunctional controls having non-electrical outputs.
Note 3: BS EN IEC 60730-2-7 does not apply to multi-functional controls having an integrated timing function which is not capable of being tested as a separate timing device.
Note 4: BS EN IEC 60730-2-7 applies to the inherent safety, to the operating characteristics where such are associated with equipment protection and to the testing of timers used in appliances and other apparatus, electrical and non-electrical, for household and similar purposes, but also extended to industrial purposes when no dedicated product standards exist, such as that for central heating, air conditioning, process heating, etc.
Note 5: Timers for equipment not intended for normal household use, but which nevertheless used by the public, such as equipment intended to be used by laymen in shops, in light industry and on farms are within the scope of BS EN IEC 60730-2-7.
Note 6: BS EN IEC 60730-2-7 applies to manual controls when such are electrically and/or mechanically integral with timers.
Note 7: BS EN IEC 60730-2-7 applies also to timers incorporating electronic devices.
Who is BS EN IEC 60730-2-7 for?
BS EN IEC 60730-2-7 on timers and time switches is useful for:
- Timers and time switch manufacturers and suppliers
- Electrical appliances manufacturers
- Time switch servicemen
Why should you use BS EN IEC 60730-2-7?
Time switches and timers that operate an electric switch are controlled by the timing mechanism. The switch is connected to an electric circuit operating from mains power.
BS EN IEC 60730-2-7 provides requirements for timer and time switch that help you to control the appliance or lighting system is turned on or off.
BS EN IEC 60730-2-7 specifies requirements for timer and time switches to eliminate energy wastage before getting out of hand, which helps you to save energy and money by using the required energy.
BS EN IEC 60730-2-7 provides requirements for timer and time switches, that are widely used in non-contact sensing, switching & controlling several automatic processes, safety, and security applications, and to improve product quality and production.
