Annotation of standard text IEC 62990-2-ed.1.0 :
IEC 62990-2:2021 gives guidance on the selection, installation, use and maintenance of electrical equipment used for the measurement of toxic gases and vapours in workplace atmospheres. The primary purpose of such equipment is to ensure safety of personnel and property by providing an indication of the concentration of a toxic gas or vapour and warning of its presence. This document is applicable to equipment whose purpose is to provide an indication, alarm or other output function to give a warning of the presence of a toxic gas or vapour in the atmosphere and in some cases to initiate automatic or manual protective actions. It is applicable to equipment in which the sensor automatically generates an electrical signal when gas is present. For the purposes of this document, equipment includes: a) fixed equipment; b) transportable equipment, and c) portable equipment. This document is intended to cover equipment defined within IEC 62990-1, but can provide useful information for equipment not covered by that document. IEC 62990-2:2021 donne des recommandations pour la selection, l’installation, l’utilisation et la maintenance du materiel electrique utilise pour le mesurage des gaz et des vapeurs toxiques dans les atmospheres des lieux de travail. Le principal objectif de ce type de materiel est d’assurer la securite des personnes et des biens en fournissant une indication de la concentration d’un gaz ou d’une vapeur toxique et en avertissant de sa presence. Le present document s’applique aux materiels dont l’objectif principal est de donner une indication, une alarme ou une autre fonction de sortie pour avertir de la presence d’un gaz ou d’une vapeur toxique dans l’atmosphere et, dans certains cas, de declencher des actions protectrices automatiques ou manuelles. Il s’applique aux materiels dont le capteur genere automatiquement un signal electrique en presence de gaz. Pour les besoins du present document, les materiels comprennent: a) le materiel fixe; b) le materiel transportable; et c) le materiel portable. Le present document est destine a couvrir les materiels definis dans l’IEC 62990-1, mais peut fournir des informations utiles pour des materiels non couverts par ce document.
