The IEC 61010 family of standards tell us what upper limits of temperature should have a laboratory equipment in accessible parts to be considered safe. But I have not found any limitation for low temperature. Intuitively, I consider that it should be banned that somebody could touch a metallic tube at -100 ºC for safety reasons, but I have no standard requirement.
Does anybody know any standard about that safety problem? Thank you. Juan Pedro Peña CETECOM (CENTRO DE TECNOLOGÍA DE LAS COMUNICACIONES, S.A.) e-mail: [email protected] Web: http://www.cetecom.es/
