Automaticand semi-automatic laboratory equipment consists of instruments or systems for measuring or modifying one or more characteristics or parameters of samples, performing the complete process or parts of the process without manual intervention. Equipment forming part of such a system is within the scope of this document.

This revision of ANSI/UL 61010-2-081, dated December 7, 2023 is being issued to update the title page to reflect the most recent designation as a Reaffirmed American National Standard (ANS). No technical changes have been made.

The cost to purchase this Standard varies depending on whether you are ordering a hardcopy, PDF or combination of the two. We also offer two different types of subscriptions: a one year and a three year.

EN IEC 61010-2-101 covers the particular safety requirements for IVD medical equipment. It has been adopted and published as a national standard in many countries. Amendment A11, however, was published in 2022 and brings a number of new requirements to the standard. This webinar, hosted by Intertek's chief engineer, Claudia Sirch, and Assistant chief engineer, Paul Yu, covers the changes in detail.

IEC 61010-2-032:2023 specifies safety requirements for hand-held and hand-manipulated current sensors intended for measuring, detecting, or injecting current, or indicating current waveforms on circuits without physically opening the circuit's current path.

These current sensors are hand-manipulated before and/or after a test or measurement, but are not necessarily hand-held during the test or measurement. They can be stand-alone current sensors or accessories to other equipment or parts of combined equipment. These include measurement circuits which are part of electrical test and measurement equipment, laboratory equipment, or process control equipment.

We will continue to pay attention to the update of global standards for you, promptly provide you with accurate interpretation, respond to the standard upgrade as soon as possible, and escort your products to the international market smoothly!

Automation is playing a key role in manufacturing industries to help reduce production costs, increase efficiency in production, improve product quality, etc. New methods of system integration are being adopted worldwide that enable manufacturers to efficiently manage their day-to-day activities effortlessly. However, the integration of these numerous and diverse technologies requires a high degree of interconnectivity that significantly complicates the design. The lack of universal standards and the slow pace at which the existing standards are revised to address new technologies can be considered major factors for complicating the design.

The International Electromechanical Commission (IEC) IEC 61131-2, Programmable controllers Part-2 Equipment requirements and tests, has provided the primary technical requirements for PLCs in the European Union (EU) and in many other countries around the world. However, the U.S. and Canada were following UL508, CSA-C22.2 NO.142 as their standards. Although the technical requirements of the U.S. and Canadian PLC standards were generally consistent with each other, they differed significantly from IEC 61131-2. The key differences were found in creepage & clearance distances, required protection types and the classification of loads. Example: HP rating vs.AC-3, or pilot duty rating vs AC1. These technical differences created a major contrast in unifying the PLC requirements across the globe.

When used in conjunction with IEC 61010-1 for the evaluation and certification of PLCs, the new standard incorporates electrical safety requirements previously found in IEC 61131-2. Soon after IEC 61010-2-201 was published, the European committee for Electro technical Standardization (CENELEC), released EN 610-2-201, a harmonised version of the standard applicable to PLCs sold or imported into the EU. This move towards globally unifying the PLC requirements was continued as UL published 61010-2-201 to be used in conjunction with UL 61010-1 for US certification of PLCs followed by CSA22.2 No.61010-2-201 in 2014. Both UL and CSA standards published adopted IEC 61010-2-201.

The establishment of the IEC 61010-2-201 standard resulted in a unified requirements for all PLC manufacturers around the globe that must be followed unequivocally by April 2016.This standard is widely applicable to all manufacturers of PLCs regardless of where these products are manufactured or sold.

As mentioned earlier, IEC 61010-2-201 is a specific standard under IEC 61010 that specifically addresses safety requirements and related verification tests for PLCs as well as a variety of other types of industrial control equipment. The control equipment covered under the scope of this standard include:

The specific technical requirements for PLC detailed in IEC 61010-2-201 differ from its previous standard IEC 61131-2, UL508 &CSA-22.2 No.142 in a number of aspects. A few of the most newly revised technical requirements include Durability of marking, Double Insulation, Protection against mechanical hazards, Risk Assessment for mechanical hazards, Production line testing, Single fault testing Enclosures. The specific details about these requirements can be found from the IEC requirements document.

As the new standard become effective on April 2016, every supplier who plays a role in the PLC market by means of providing a complete solution or a partial solution is obliged to revise their existing products or manufacture new products to comply with these standards. As a world class Relay manufacturer, Panasonic is well informed about the changes in PLC standards and markets and are the pioneers to implement the new standards in revised products. With the new requirement in place, every Relay manufacturer is expected to meet the following:

The implementation of the new IEC 61010-2-201 standard will certainly demand the current PLC manufacturers across the world to quickly adapt to the same. Although the unified standard will ease the testing and certification burden and compliance cost eventually, adapting to this standard within the specific timeline could be challenging from a design perspective. PLC designers can only accommodate suppliers who can provide a solution that will meet their specific requirements by April 2016. As an industry leader in technology and innovation for Electromechanical Relays, the new Relay solution that Panasonic offers will provide the PLC manufacturers an upper hand by meeting/exceeding the new requirements mandated by this standards.
