BS EN 61010-2-051:1996 is a British Standard that specifies safety requirements for laboratory equipment that use electrical energy, for measurement, control, and laboratory use.
This standard is specifically focused on safety requirements for equipment that are intended to be used by non-expert users and technicians in industrial and laboratory settings. It covers equipment such as laboratory ovens, centrifuges, and spectrometers, among others.
The standard outlines general safety requirements, such as protection against electric shock, fire hazards, and mechanical hazards. It also specifies safety requirements for specific types of laboratory equipment, including temperature control equipment, vacuum equipment, and electrical measuring equipment.
Overall, BS EN 61010-2-051:1996 aims to ensure that laboratory equipment is designed and constructed in such a way that it does not pose a risk of injury to the user or any other person nearby. It is important for laboratory owners and managers to adhere to this standard to ensure the safety of their employees and the proper functioning of their equipment.
