IEC 60204-31:2001 Safety of machinery - Electrical equipment of machines - Part 31: Particular safety and EMC requirements for sewing machines, units and systems
This clause of part 1 is replaced by:
This part of IEC 60204 applies to the application of electrical and electronic equipment to sewing machines, units and systems, designed specifically for professional use in the sewing industry.
NOTE See IEC 60335-2-28 for requirements for sewing machines for household and similar use.
The equipment covered by this part commences at the point of connection of the supply to the electrical equipment of the machine (see 5.1). This part is applicable to the electrical equipment or parts of the electrical equipment which operate with nominal supply voltages not exceeding 1000 V for alternating current and not exceeding 1500 V for direct current, and with nominal frequencies not exceeding 200 Hz.
It does not cover all the requirements (e.g. guarding, interlocking, control) that are necessary to safeguard persons from hazards other than electrical hazards and which are specified in other standards.
This part applies to sewing units and systems which are installed in dry and well-kept clean locations and which process dry sewing material, as in the clothing industry. Where sewing units and systems are used in other than dry and well-kept clean locations, more stringent measures may be necessary, which need to be agreed.
