scope:

NOTE Throughout this document the word "equipment" means "appliance and equipment".

This document is applicable to electric actuators for building automation within the scope of ISO 16484.

This part 2-14 applies to the inherent safety, to the operating values, operating times and operating sequences where such are associated with equipment safety, and to the testing of electric actuators used in or in association with equipment.

This document is also applicable to the functional safety of low complexity safety related systems and controls.

This part -2-14 applies to automatic electric actuators, mechanically or electrically operated, responsive to or controlling such characteristics as temperature, pressure, passage of time, humidity, light, electrostatic effects, flow, or liquid level, current, voltage, acceleration, or combinations thereof.

Requirements for manual switches not integral with an electric actuator are contained in IEC 61058-1 and IEC 61058-1-1.

This part 2-14 applies to AC or DC powered electric actuators with a rated voltage not exceeding 690 V AC or 600 V DC.

This part 2-14 does not take into account the response value of an automatic action of an electric actuator, if such a response value is dependent upon the method of mounting the electric actuator in the equipment. Where a response value is of significant purpose for the protection of the user, or surroundings, the value defined in the appropriate household equipment or as determined by the manufacturer applies.
