Their primary focus is to help manufacturers prepare for all phases of certification of these products – from product design, approval and installation to certification maintenance.
Application of Standard IEC 61010-1
IEC 61010-1 is a hazard base standard covering laboratory, measurement and process control equipment. This standard includes any type of hazard which could arise during installation, operation, service and maintenance.
IEC 61010-1 addresses the requirements for protection against types of hazard listed below:
Electric Shock or Burn
Mechanical Hazards
Spread of Fire
Excessive Temperature and Skin Burns
Effects of Fluids and Fluid Pressure
Effects of Radiation, Including Lasers, Sonic or Ultrasonic Pressure
Liberated Gases, Explosion or Implosion
IEC 61010-1
For any North American hazardous location certification (Zone or Division markings), the equipment must first comply with the general safety, also known as ordinary location requirements.
Therefore, compliance with standard CSA/UL 61010-1 is the FIRST step for laboratory, measurement and process control equipment that will be used in a hazardous location.
This should be taken into account for all hazloc certification in North America.
An ill prepared or unprepared application can easily extend the process.

Hazardous Area Classification HAC
Gases, vapours, mists and dusts can all form potentially explosive atmospheres with air.
Hazardous Area Classification (HAC) is used to identify places where, because of the potential for an explosive atmosphere, special precautions over sources of ignition are needed to prevent fires and explosions. Hazardous area classification should be carried out to identify places (or areas) where controls over ignition sources are needed and those places where they are not. Hazardous areas are further classified into Zones / Class & Divisions / Classes & Zones, which distinguish between places that have a high chance of an explosive atmosphere occurring and those places where an explosive atmosphere may only occur occasionally or in abnormal circumstances.
