Scope

IEC 61010-2-020:2026 is applicable to electrically powered laboratory centrifuges. It is possible that all or part of the equipment falls within the scope of one or more other Part 2 standards of IEC 61010 as well as within the scope of this document. In that case, the requirements of those other Part 2 standards will also apply. This fourth edition cancels and replaces the third edition published in 2016. This edition constitutes a technical revision.

This Part 2-020 supplements or modifies the corresponding clauses in IEC 61010-1 so as to convert that publication into the IEC standard: Particular requirements for laboratory centrifuges.
Where a particular subclause of IEC 61010-1 is not mentioned in this Part 2-020, that subclause applies as far as is reasonable. Where this Part 2-020 states "addition", "modification" or "replacement", the relevant requirement, test specification or note in IEC 61010-1 shall be adapted accordingly.
