5、r without cooling loop water being provided automatically through the engine. 7. Add “Symmetrical rms amperes” as a footnote to Table 10 similar to footnote “a” in Table 6. 8. Requirements that are being proposed to be revised include the construction requirements, dielectric voltage withstand test,
6、 disconnecting means, diesel engine drive controllers, dump valves, variable speed re pump controllers, markings, the deletion of requirements covering the limited service controllers for electric motor driven re pumps, and the addition of Section 17, Routine Tests. 9.

39、ntrollers. It is the second edition of NMX-J-626-ANCE, the second edition of CSA C22.2 No. 263, and the third edition of UL 218. This edition of NMX-J-626-ANCE supersedes the previous edition published on September 28, 2009. This edition of CSA C22.2 No. 263 supersedes the previous edition published
40、 in 2009. This edition of UL 218 supersedes the previous edition published in 1999. This harmonized standard was prepared by the Association of Standardization and Certication, (ANCE), CSA Group and Underwriters Laboratories Inc. (UL). The efforts and support of the Technical Harmonization Committee
41、 for Fire Pump Controllers, CANENA THSC 17B WG4, of the Council on the Harmonization of Electrotechnical Standards of the Nations of the Americas (CANENA), are gratefully acknowledged. This standard is considered suitable for use for conformity assessment within the stated scope of the standard. The
42、 present Mexican Standard was developed by the CT 64 Instalaciones elctricas y proteccin contra choque elctrico from the Comite de Normalizacion de la Asociacion de Normalizacion y Certicacion, A.C., CONANCE, with the collaboration of the re pump controllers manufactures and users. This standard was
43、 reviewed by the CSA Subcommittee for Fire Pump Controllers, under the jurisdiction of the CSA Technical Committee on Industrial Products and the CSA Strategic Steering Committee on Requirements for Electrical Safety, and has been formally approved by the CSA Technical Committee. This standard was r
44、eviewed and approved by the Committee de Normalizacion of ANCE (CONANCE). This standard was reviewed by ULs Standards Technical Panel (STP) for Fire Pump Controllers, STP 218. This standard has been approved by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) as an American National Standard. Applic
45、ation of standard A UL standard is current only if it incorporates the most recently adopted revisions, all of which are itemized on the transmittal notice that accompanies the latest set of revised requirements. Where reference is made to a specic number of samples to be tested, the specied number
46、is to be considered a minimum quantity. Note: Although the intended primary application of this standard is stated in its scope, it is important to note that it remains the responsibility of the users of the standard to judge its suitability for their particular purpose. Level of harmonization This
47、standard uses the IEC format but is not based on, nor shall it be considered equivalent to, an IEC standard. This standard is published as an equivalent standard for ANCE, CSA, and UL. An equivalent standard is a standard that is substantially the same in technical content, except as follows: Techni
48、cal national differences are allowed for codes and governmental regulations as well as those recognized as being in accordance with NAFTA Article 905, for example, because of fundamental climatic, geographical, technological, or infrastructural factors, scientic justication, or the level of protecti
49、on that the country considers appropriate. Presentation is word for word except for editorial changes.
