IEC 60730-2-15 applies to automatic electrical air flow, water flow, and water level sensing controls for use in, or in association with, boilers with a maximum pressure rating of 2 000 kPA (20 bar) and equipment for general household and similar use including controls for heating, air-conditioning, and similar applications.
Note 1: IEC 60730-2-15 is not applicable to pressure sensing controls, requirements.
Note 2: Examples are water flow and water level sensing controls of the float or electrode-sensor type used in boiler applications and air flow, water flow and water level sensing controls for swimming pool pumps, water tank pumps, cooling towers, dishwashers, washing machines, air conditioning chillers and ventilation applications.
Note 3: IEC 60730-2-15 applies to automatic electrical air flow, water flow and water level sensing controls for equipment that may be used by the public, such as equipment intended to be used in shops, offices, hospitals, farms and commercial and industrial applications
Note 4: IEC 60730-2-15 applicable to individual controls utilized as part of a control system or controls which are mechanically integral with multifunctional controls having non-electrical output
Note 5: IEC 60730-2-15 does not apply to air flow, water flow and water level sensing controls designed exclusively for industrial applications unless explicitly mentioned in the relevant equipment standard
IEC 60730-2-15 on automatic electrical controls applies to:
IEC 60730-2-15 applies to the inherent safety, to the operating values, operating sequences are associated with equipment protection, and to the testing of automatic electrical air flow, water flow, and water level sensing controls used in association with equipment.
