32、midifiers. It is the fourth edition of CSA C22.2 No.104, superseding editions published in 2001, 1993, and 1983, and the fifth edition of UL 998.This harmonized Standard was prepared by the Canadian Standards Association (CSA) and UnderwritersLaboratories Inc. (UL). The efforts and support of the Ai

33、r Conditioning and Refrigeration Institute (ARI) andthe Heating, Refrigerating and Air Conditioning Institute of Canada (HRAI) are gratefully acknowledged.This Standard is considered suitable for use for conformity assessment within the stated scope of theStandard.This Standard was reviewed by the C

34、SA Subcommittee on Humidifiers under the jurisdiction of theTechnical Committee on Consumer and Commercial Products and the Strategic Steering Committee onRequirements for Electrical Safety, and has been formally approved by the Technical Committee.This standard has been approved by the American Nat

35、ional Standards Institute (ANSI) as an AmericanNational Standard.Where reference is made to a specific number of samples to be tested, the specified number isconsidered a minimum quantity.Note: Although the intended primary application of this standard is stated in its scope, it is important tonote

36、that it remains the responsibility of the users of the standard to judge its suitability for their particularpurpose.Level of harmonizationThis standard uses the IEC format but is not based on, nor is it considered equivalent to, an IEC standard.This standard is published as an identical standard fo

37、r (CSA, and UL). An identical standard is a standardthat is exactly the same in technical content except for national differences resulting from conflicts incodes and governmental regulations. Presentation is word for word except for editorial changes.InterpretationsThe interpretation by the standar

38、ds development organization of an identical or equivalent standard isbased on the literal text to determine compliance with the standard in accordance with the proceduralrules of the standards development organization. If more than one interpretation of the literal text has beenidentified, a revisio

39、n is to be proposed as soon as possible to each of the standards developmentorganizations to more accurately reflect the intent.CSA effective dateThe effective date for CSA International will be announced through CSA Informs or a CSA CertificationNotice.UL effective dateAs of April 25, 2011 all prod

42、 used in accordancewith the National Electrical Code (NEC), ANSI/NFPA 70, and the Rules of the Canadian Electrical Code(CEC), Part I, C22.1.1.2 These requirements cover humidifiers intended for residential and commercial use. This includeshumidifiers of the centrifugal atomizing type, evaporative-me

43、dia type, water-injection type, steam type,and the like. The humidifiers may be for installation in a room, mounted on a wall or a ceiling, or for ductor plenum mounting.1.3 These requirements apply to equipment that includes an electric heating element to heat air or water,or both.1.4 These require

44、ments do not apply to evaporative coolers that are also intended to be used for cooling.1.5 These requirements do not apply to portable, electrode-type products, such as vaporizers, which arecovered by the Standard for Electric Heating Appliances, UL 499, and the CSA Standard for HouseholdCooking an

45、d Liquid-Heating Appliances, CAN/CSA-C22.2 No. 64.2 Definitions2.1 The following definitions apply in this Standard:Circuit, extra-low-voltage A circuit that has an ac potential of not more than 30 V (42.4 peak), andpower of 100 VA or less; or 30 V dc supplied by a primary battery; or supplied by a

46、Class 2transformer; or supplied by a combination of a transformer and fixed impedance that, as a unit,complies with all the performance requirements for a Class 2 transformer. A circuit that is derived froma circuit which exceeds 30 V by connecting resistance or impedance, or both, in series with th

47、e supplycircuit to limit the voltage and current, is not considered to be an extra-low-voltage circuit.Circuit, hazardous voltage A circuit having characteristics in excess of those of an extra-low-voltagecircuit.Combination temperature-regulating and temperature-limiting thermostat A thermostat who

48、se functionis to regulate the temperature under normal conditions of use, and that also serves to prevent a hazardthat might result from conditions of abnormal operation of the heater.Enclosure The enclosure that houses the electrical components, live parts and/or moving parts. It maybe an integral

49、part of the component, a separate item, part of the ultimate enclosure, or the ultimateenclosure (e.g., the outer cabinet).Heater element A complete or partial assembly of a heating element, an electrical insulation (e.g.,refractory, mica), a metal sheath, a glass or quartz envelope or panel, thermal insulation, and a frameor adaptor for holding the assembly together and fastening it in the heater; and leads or terminalconnections, or both, which may or may not include bolts and
