This clause of Part 1 is replaced by the following.

This International Standard deals with the safety of electrical motor-operated vacuum cleaners, including back-pack vacuum cleaners, and dust extractors, for wet suction, dry suction, or wet and dry suction, intended for commercial indoor or outdoor use with or without attachments.

It also deals with the safety of centrally-sited vacuum cleaners, excluding the installation of the system.

NOTE 101 Attention is drawn to the fact that additional requirements on the safe installation of centrally-sited vacuum cleaners are not addressed by this standard but need to be taken into account.

NOTE 102 This standard applies to machines for commercial use. The following list, although not comprehensive, gives an indication of locations that are included in the scope:

  • public use areas such as hotels, schools, hospitals;

  • industrial locations, for example factories and manufacturing shops;

  • retail outlets, for example shops and supermarkets;

  • business premises, for example offices and banks;

  • all uses other than normal housekeeping purposes.

They are not equipped with a traction drive. The following power systems are covered:

  • mains powered motors up to a rated voltage of 250 V for single-phase appliances and 480 V for other appliances,

  • battery powered motors.

This standard also applies to machines handling hazardous dust, such as asbestos.

NOTE 103 Additional requirements for machines handling hazardous dust are given in Annex AA. Attention is drawn to the fact that in many countries additional requirements on hazardous substances might apply.

NOTE 104 Radioactive substances are not covered by definition of hazardous dust for the purposes of this standard.

This European Standard deals with the reasonably foreseeable hazards presented by machines that are encountered by all persons.

However, in general, it does not take into account:

  • children playing with the machine;

  • the use of the machine by children;

  • the use of the machine by vulnerable people or very vulnerable people.

This standard does not apply to

  • vacuum cleaners and water-suction cleaning appliances for household use (IEC 60335-2-2);

  • floor treatment machines for commercial use (IEC 60335-2-67, IEC 60335-2-72);

  • spray extraction machines for commercial use (IEC 60335-2-68);

  • hand-held mains-operated electrical garden blowers, vacuums and blower vacuums (IEC 60335-2-100);

  • hand-held and transportable motor-operated electric tools (IEC 60745 series, IEC 61029 series);

  • appliances for medical purposes (IEC 60601-1);

  • machines designed for use in corrosive environments;

  • machines designed for picking up liquids with a flash point below 55 °C;

  • machines designed for use in explosive environments (dust, vapour or gas), except those designed for use in zone 22.

NOTE 103 Additional requirements for machines handling hazardous dust are given in Annex AA. Attention is drawn to the fact that in many countries additional requirements on hazardous substances might apply.

NOTE 104 Radioactive substances are not covered by definition of hazardous dust for the purposes of this standard.
