GB/T 16843-2023Single-capped fluorescent lamps - Safety specifications (English PDF)

Foreword

This document complies with the provisions of GB/T 1.1-2020 "Standardization Work Guidelines Part 1: Structure and Drafting Rules of Standardization Documents" Drafting.

This document replaces GB 16843-2008 "Safety Requirements for Single-ended Fluorescent Lamps". Compared with GB 16843-2008, except for structural adjustments and compilation in addition to editorial changes, the main technical changes are as follows:

--- Added "This document also specifies photobiological safety requirements based on IEC 62471" (see Chapter 1);

---Added Table 1 (see Chapter 1);

---Added terms such as "nominal value", "rated value", "SoS value" and "effective ultraviolet radiation power ratio" (see Chapter 3);

---Added Figure 1 (see 4.9);

---Added "ultraviolet radiation" (see 4.11);

---Added "Lamp Holder Design Information" (see 4.14);

--- Added tests for GU10q, GZ10q and 2GX13 lamp holders in the test to evaluate the structure and assembly of the lamp holder (see Appendix A);

---Changed the bending moment applied to the lamp tube or lamp holder when conducting lamp holder structure and assembly assessment tests on unused lamps (A.2.1, 2008 version A.2.1);

--- Added requirements for the bending moment that the lamp head should be able to withstand (see A.2.2);

---Added "lamp head maximum temperature rise test" (see B.1.3);

---Deleted the requirement that "the lamp should be a specially prepared deactivated finished lamp, that is, without cathode emitting material" (see the 2008 version B.1.2);

---Added the maximum temperature rise of the lamp holder and special tests for lamp holders 2G8, 2GX11, GR14q, and GZ24 in the test methods (see B.2);

--- Added regulations on the maximum temperature of lamp holders for lamps with built-in or external starters and lamps without starters in the lamp design information (See C.2);

--- Added regulations for lamp holder temperature (see C.3.2);

---Added 2GX11, GY10q, GZ24q, 2GX13, 2G8, GU10q, GZ10q and GR14q lamp holder cathode connection methods (See Appendix E);

--- Added a description of the maximum current of lamps with built-in or external starters and lamps without starters (see F.1);

---Added "non-interchangeability requirements for lamps" (see F.2);

---Added "discharge current safety limit", "SoS safety limit" and "maximum rated power of the lamp" in Table F.1 (see Appendix F).

This document is equivalent to IEC 61199:2014 "Safety Specification for Single-ended Fluorescent Lamps".

This document has made the following minimal editorial changes:

---Added notes to Table F.1 and Figure G.1.

1 Scope

This document specifies the safety requirements for single-ended fluorescent lamps for general lighting using the lamp bases listed in Table 1.

This document specifies the manufacturer's overall product evaluation results, based on inspection records of finished lamps, demonstrating that his product complies with this document: specific methods required. This method is also used for product certification. This document establishes in detail the batch inspection procedures, which make limited evaluate.

This document also specifies the photobiological safety requirements according to IEC 62471.

Blue light and infrared hazards are below the levels required for labeling.

Note: The qualification conditions of this document only involve safety indicators and do not consider the performance of single-ended fluorescent lamps for general lighting, such as luminous flux, color, start-up and operating characteristics.

Information on the performance of single-ended fluorescent lamps for general lighting is found in IEC 60901.

Lamps that comply with this document, when the power supply voltage is within the range of 90% to 110% of the rated power supply voltage of the ballast used, are in compliance with the requirements of this document.

Ballast according to IEC 61347-2-3 or ballast assembly according to IEC 61347-2-8 with starting device according to IEC 60155 (if applicable) sets and can be expected to operate safely when used in luminaires complying with IEC 60598-1.
