Overview
EN 60335-2-65:2003/FprAC:2024 is a harmonized European standard developed by CLC (CENELEC) that specifies the safety requirements for household and similar electrical air-cleaning appliances. This standard applies to appliances with rated voltage not exceeding 250 V for single-phase and 480 V for other appliances. It covers devices used not only in private homes but also by laymen in shops, light industry, and farms. The standard aims to support conformity with essential safety requirements set out in key European directives, such as the Low Voltage Directive (LVD) 2014/35/EU and the Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC.
Key Topics
Scope and Coverage
The standard addresses the operational safety of electric air-cleaning appliances for household and similar applications, explicitly clarifying that noise emission from such appliances is not considered a relevant hazard within this context.Compliance Requirements
EN 60335-2-65, when used together with EN 60335-1, provides one recognized route to demonstrate conformity with the safety objectives of the LVD and certain essential requirements of the Machinery Directive. The standard includes Annexes (ZZA, ZZB) explaining the correspondence with EU directives.Modifications and Amendments
The amendment FprAC:2024 updates and clarifies normative references, expands compliance requirements, and aligns with the latest European regulations. Notably, specific revisions are made to annexes to ensure the standard accurately reflects relationships with EU directives.International Relevance
The content is available in multiple official European languages and is recognized across all CENELEC member states, enhancing its impact and enforcement throughout the European market.
Applications
EN 60335-2-65:2003/FprAC:2024 is crucial for manufacturers, importers, and regulatory authorities involved with:
Household air purifiers
Appliances designed to clean the ambient air in private residences.Commercial and industrial appliances
Air-cleaning units intended for use by non-professionals in shops, offices, light industry environments, and farming applications.Market access and CE marking
Compliance with this standard supports presumption of conformity with the LVD and Machinery Directive, streamlining CE marking for air-cleaning appliances sold within the EU and EFTA.Product safety assessment
Essential for testing laboratories, conformity assessment bodies, and product safety professionals who evaluate appliances before market introduction.
Related Standards
Several standards complement EN 60335-2-65:2003/FprAC:2024, forming a comprehensive framework for electrical appliance safety:
- EN 60335-1 - General requirements for the safety of household and similar electrical appliances
- EN 60335-2-x series - Particular requirements for specific types of appliances (e.g., vacuum cleaners, dishwashers)
- EN ISO 4892-2 - Methods of exposure of plastics to laboratory light sources, relevant for material testing in appliance housings
- Directive 2014/35/EU (LVD) - Electrical equipment designed for use within certain voltage limits
- Directive 2006/42/EC (Machinery Directive) - Machinery safety within the European Economic Area
By adhering to EN 60335-2-65 and its amendments, organizations ensure that electric air-cleaning appliances are designed, produced, and marketed safely across Europe, minimizing risks to users and maintaining compliance with evolving EU legislation.
