RE: Directive 96/29/euratom
In the latest edition of EN 60950:2000, Safety of IT Equipment, Annex H, Ionizing Radiation, you will find the following changed text : - At any point 10cm from the surface of the OPERATOR ACCESS AREA, the dose rate shall not exceed 1uSv/h (0.1 mR/h) (see note). Account is taken of the background level. NOTE - These values appear in Directive 96/29/Euratom. The previous limit was 0.5 mR/h at 5cm, taken from ICRP 15. I had noted that it is surprising a) that nobody requested this change until now - shows you how (un)important it is, and b) that nobody objected to the Euratom Directive when it was proposed, as the new limit is different from that found in IEC 60950 and in 21CFR, Subchapter J. Which brings me on to a long-standing beef of mine : Given that the X-ray requirements for monitors in UL1950 and 21CFR are to all intent and purposes the same, can CDRH not be persuaded to drop all their paperwork that has to be gone thru to get an Accession number for a monitor, if it is already UL Listed or Recognized ?
