Automatic electrical controls Part 2: Particular requirements for automatic electrical burner control systems
 N EN 60730-2-5

Annotation

This part of IEC 60730 applies to automatic electrical burner control systems for the automatic control of burners for oil, gas, coal or other combustibles for household and similar use including heating, air conditioning and similar use.

This part 2-5 is applicable to a complete burner control system and to a separate programming unit. This part 2-5 is also applicable to a separate electronic high-voltage ignition source and to a separate flame detector.

NOTE Separate ignition devices (electrodes, pilot burners, etc.) are not covered by this part 2-5 unless they are submitted as part of a burner control system. Requirements for separate ignition transformers are contained in IEC 60989. Throughout this part 2-5, where it can be used unambiguously, the word "system" means "burner control system" and "systems" means "burner control systems".

Systems utilizing thermoelectric flame supervision are not covered by this part 2-5.

This part 2-5 applies to the inherent safety, to the manufacturer's declared operating values, operating times and operating sequences where such are associated with burner safety and to the testing of automatic electrical burner control systems used in, on, or in association with, burners.

NOTE Requirements for specific operating values, operating times and operating sequences are given in the standards for appliances and equipment.

Systems for equipment not intended for normal household use, but which nevertheless may be 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 this part 2-5.
