If my memory serves me right, the term used to be applied to air filters. The 
Class 1 or Class 2 had to do with the amount of smoke which would be generated 
when a flame was applied to the filter. I think that a Class 1 filter had a 
metal frame and element and Class 2 had non metal, but again that's from  what 
I recollect from years back, dealing with UL 478 which I believe had references 
to Class 1 and 2 filters.
