Description / Abstract:
These requirements cover products that are intended for use in
printing establishments. Included are such products as sheet–fed,
web–fed, and offset presses and controls, composing and typesetting
machines, cutting and folding machines, and other products that are
used in the preparation of mats. The products covered are for
connection to interior wiring systems in accordance with the
National Electrical Code, and are rated at 600 V or less.
These requirements do not cover white printers, photocopy
machines, typewriters, or any other product that is covered by
individual requirements that are separate from this Standard.
Products that generally would be covered by the requirements in
this Standard, such as duplicating equipment, are covered by the
requirements in the Standard for Information Technology Equipment
Safety – Part 1: General Requirements, UL 60950-1, when the product
is not intended for use in printing establishments.
A product that contains features, characteristics, components,
materials, or systems new or different from those covered by the
requirements in this Standard, and that involves a risk of fire,
electric shock, or injury to persons shall be evaluated using the
appropriate additional component and end-product requirements as
determined necessary to maintain the acceptable level of safety as
originally anticipated by the intent of this Standard. A product
whose features, characteristics, components, materials, or systems
conflict with specific requirements or provisions of this Standard,
cannot be judged to comply with this Standard. Where considered
appropriate, revision of requirements shall be proposed and adopted
in conformance with the methods employed for development, revision,
and implementation of this Standard.
