Describes requirements for the design and methods of construction of CABINET X-RAY SYSTEMS to provide adequate protection for OPERATORS, bystanders, trained service personnel, and the surrounding area against unintentionally-emitted X-radiation and from mechanical HAZARDS related to their conveyors.

This clause of Part1 is applicable, except as follows: 1.1.1 Equipment included in scope Replacement: Replace the text with the following: This part of IEC61010 specifies particular safety requirements for cabinet X-ray systems. A cabinet X-ray system is a system that contains an X-ray tube installed in a cabinet which, independently of existing architectural structures except the floor on which it may be placed, is intended to contain at least that portion of a material being irradiated, provide radiation attenuation, and exclude personnel from the interior during generation of X-radiation. These cabinet X-ray systems are used in industrial, commercial, and public environments, for example, to inspect materials, to analyze materials, and to screen baggage. 1.1.2 Equipment excluded from scope Addition: Add the following new items to the list: equipment intended to apply X-radiation to humans or animals; equipment incorporating an X-ray tube but not incorporating complete shielding against X-radiation hazards, such as: 1) equipment intended to be used within a shielded room which excludes personnel during operation; 2) equipment intended to be used with separate portable or temporary shielding; 3) equipment intended to produce an emerging beam of X-radiation. 1.2.1 Aspects included in scope Addition: Add the following text at the end of the first paragraph: This part of IEC61010 specifies requirements for the design and methods of construction of cabinet X-ray systems to provide adequate protection for operators, bystanders, trained service personnel, and the surrounding area against unintentionally-emitted X-radiation and from mechanical hazards related to their conveyors.
