                    very short contacts

                      temperature limit values

Defines procedures for the assessment of the risk of burning when a hot surface is touched by unprotected skin. Establishes temperature limit values in all fields where surface temperature limit values are required. Not restricted to the safety of machinery, it applies to all kinds of products where hot surfaces cause a risk of burning. Applies to hot surfaces which may be touched by healthy adults, children and elderly or physically disabled people. Applies to electrically powered products as for all other products.
