Greetings,
We currently manufacture and market a product as laboratory equipment not
intended for diagnostic purposes. This product has been evaluated to EN
61010-1, EN 61326, CSA 1010.1 and UL 3101-1.
We are considering marketing this product as an In-vitro diagnostic
device. Do we need to

Hi Kris:
The markings on the power supply are: (also as per UL file)
Date code
model number
electrical ratings
Class 2 transformer
The additional markings are:
CAUTION, Risk of electric shock and Dry location use only and Do not
expose to liquid, vapor, or rain
Andrew, David,
A method that I read about in the 1980's, in the Hewlett-Packard
Journal, was a method called STRIFE Testing. In this method you tested
prototypes to the design limits, then you progressively increased the
stresses until your prototype(s) broke. You analyzed the failures,
Hello Constantin,
I just wanted to let the group know that this was verified with CSA earlier
today. It is also important to point out the it is not a requirement for
bilingualism on the cert. label, only on cautions and warnings as called out
in the standards.

Hello group,
I just received an inquiry regarding compliance with a new ecological law #
477/2001 in the Czech Republic concerning packaging of goods.
Apparently the law sets requirements on design and marking of packaging and
preparation of a declaration and other reporting requirements.

Hi all,
I am creating a presentation based on the IEC60950 standard, about how
to use principles of safety to design safety products.
So, I need pictures of good and bad design examples. Anyone knows were

Dear Colleagues,
As Mat Aschenberg specified clearly , it is a requirement of the applicable
Standard; (in this situation it is CAN CSA C22.2. No. 223-M91).
It specifies under the Clause 5, MARKING , item 5. 2 as follows: the
following WARNINGS or equivalent, when applicable,, shall appear on
Hi Robert,
Do you mean the Immunity to conducted low-frequency interference Chapter
10.2 in IEC945:1996 ?
If YES, I think you can relax. A new version of IEC945 will hopefully be
released from IEC within a few weeks, and in the revision it was proposed to
delete this test.

Hello Brian,
HALT has never been intended to be a reliability test method. The idea behind
HALT is to find weaknesses in a product and address them as appropriate.
Reliability testing is a different animal and should never be confused with
HALT or STRIFE testing.
Regards,
We use HALT here at Schweitzer Engineering Labs to help improve the reliability
of power protection relays (devices that among other things control circuit
breakers on power lines, using measured currents and voltages to detect faults).
We want to have MTBF times in hundreds of years, so that

A product from manufacturer X is delivered with a (direct plug-in) power
supply from mftr Y to customers in Canada.
Regarding the power supply, it is UL approved + UL listed and has the UL
marking with C and US.

I don't know the standard but if you tell me what you are trying to do I
will tell you what equipment to use and who makes it.

Doug's process is the same one we use. I would just make one small
point. The Canadian IC03(?) version of the FCC warnings must be in French and I
have always understood that it must be on the product as does the FCC warnings.

Interesting observations from all. I would appreciate if the good people
that posted on this subject could reveal the item, or product category being
tested. It would be interesting to see the relative relevance of each test
or analysis technique (e.g., MH217, HALT, HASS, ESS, etc) to the
Kris,
It is a requirement, and customs can hold the shipments if they find it.
UL does a poor job of checking the markings for both languages.
Many manufacturers of CUL (Canadian UL) listed products are not aware that
dual language markings are a requirement for Canada. It is a requirement,
and
I would agree with Brian in that the name HALT is misleading. There is
no way to relate HALT data to a failure rate or MTBF figure within a
field population.
Saying that though, HALT testing does very quickly reveal mechanical
weakness within a design and is incredibly useful.
I always take the
Hi Kristiaan,
If you look at 60950, you are only required to mark your products in a
language which is acceptable in the country which it is being sold. In the
national deviations there are some specific countries, such as Germany, who
specify that safety instructions be in their particular
Does anyone know of a source of equipment to perform the Conducted
low-frequency interference test in table 6 of this standard? Conversely,
does anyone know of a lab than can perform such a test on a power supply
with input of 230VAC 50 Hz?
Thanks,

David,
Very good observations!
Regarding MTBF:
1) Even military component MTBF is suspect; MIL-HDBK-217 is decomissioned;
its database is over a decade old; its algorithms for plastic and multi-lead
parts are obsolete. Telcordia SR-332 is more real-life, but component MTBF
is vendor- and
Hello group,
I would actually disagree that HALT is misnamed, as Brian suggests. I have
seen clients find mechanical and electronic weakness in their designs within
days of testing that may otherwise have taken many weeks of conventional
temperature and vibration testing, or even years in the
