Re: [PSES] Recommendations for ASME BPV
Dunno, in the Peoples' Republic of Kalifornia, we can use the state OSHA as it is accredited to asses all types of pressure vessels, but do not believe that any other state has this 'service'. The ASME.org site has a listing of accredited organizations, and they may be able to provide a list of accredited individuals. Perhaps the path of least impedance would be to use the TUVR lab designated for this stuff.

Re: [PSES] Multiple power sources
Related to this, EN 60204-1:2006 16.4 states “A nameplate giving the following information shall be attached to the enclosure adjacent to each incoming supply: – name or trade mark of supplier; – certification mark, when required; – serial number, where applicable; – rated voltage, number of phases and frequency (if a.c.), and full-load current for each supply; – short-circuit rating of the equipment; – main document number (see IEC 62023).” Does this mean for a machine with two incoming supplies (separated by some distance) a nameplate containing the ratings for both power supplies needs to be on both nameplates adjacent both supplies? Or only the rating for the supply adjacent the nameplate should be on the nameplate (each nameplate would have the rating for one supply)? Seems like the former. thanks -Dave From: Nyffenegger, Dave Sent: Monday, June 30, 2014 8:50 AM To: Anthony Thomson; EMC-PSTC@LISTSERV.IEEE.ORG Subject: RE: [PSES] Multiple power sources Sounds like I may need to compromise and make some labels with minimal text in just a few languages referring to the documentation and use the appropriate label for where the product is being installed.

EN 60950-1:2006 1.7.9 Isolation of multiple power sources states Where there is more than one connection supplying HAZARDOUS VOLTAGES or HAZARDOUS ENERGY LEVELS to equipment, a prominent marking, located close to the entry point provided for a SERVICE PERSON to gain access to the hazardous parts, shall be provided to indicate which disconnect device or devices isolate the equipment completely and which disconnect devices can be used to isolate each section of the equipment. EN 60950-1:2006 3.4.11 Multiple power sources states Where a unit receives power from more than one source, there shall be a prominent marking at each disconnect device giving adequate instructions for the removal of all power from the unit. The product in question has two power sources/disconnects. My assumption is that simply slapping some ISO 8001, 8002, and ISO 7134 pictogram labels at each of the disconnects and documenting the details in the service manual in the appropriate language is not sufficient. Therefore some descriptive text in the appropriate language needs to be present at each disconnect to satisfy the requirements. Depending on what that is, what size, and how much space is available it may be possible to put the instructions in all required languages on each unit at each disconnect or we may need to put only appropriate language(s) for the country we are shipping the unit to which would then have to be done per unit as applicable. I'm wondering if anyone has any creative examples/references/suggestions for fulfilling these requirements in a simple manner while also meeting the requirement of having all text be in one of the official community languages for each installation location.

Re: [PSES] Multiple power sources
The latter makes more sense to me. I see a critical purpose of the nameplate as providing the instructions to the electrician regarding how to properly bring and protect the mains supply to the machine. I don't want any confusion in this matter.

Re: [PSES] Multiple power sources
The standard reads for each supply . I was assuming this was referring/allowing for multiple concurrent supplies on the same machine. You think it was referring to different options for a single supply? For example ratings for 1 single phase 60Hz supply or 1 single phase 50Hz supply or 1 3 phase supply? My first thought before reading the standard was to put everything required on one nameplate only including only the primary power supply ratings located adjacent the primary power input. A secondary rating plate would go adjacent the second power input with only the supply ratings on it. Duplicating the serial number and CE mark seemed wrong to me at first but after thinking about it I guess it would be OK. I could not find anything regarding whether or not multiple CE marks were OK for the same product. -Dave -Original Message- From: John Woodgate [mailto:j...@jmwa.demon.co.uk] Sent: Wednesday, July 02, 2014 12:54 AM To: EMC-PSTC@LISTSERV.IEEE.ORG Subject: Re: [PSES] Multiple power sources In message f3d590e5d0f24f56b4539e9d93d57...@bn1pr08mb059.namprd08.prod.outlook.com , dated Tue, 1 Jul 2014, Nyffenegger, Dave dave.nyffeneg...@bhemail.com writes: Does this mean for a machine with two incoming supplies (separated by some distance) a nameplate containing the ratings for both power supplies needs to be on both nameplates adjacent both supplies?
