Arm Probe for Testing Tortuous Path Guarding of Cutting Means Through the Feed Intake Opening – BONAD Test Equipment
Standards:
- EN 50636-2-100: Safety standard for household and similar electrical appliances (specifically for electric garden equipment).
- EN 13683:2003 Clause 5.2.1.3 & Figure 5: Safety requirements for garden machinery.
- CSA C22.2: Canadian electrical safety standard (requires Amphenol connector for shock protection testing).
Applications:
- Power Tool Safety Testing: Evaluates if guarding systems prevent human contact with hazardous parts through feed openings.
- Garden Equipment Certification: Used for safety inspections or third-party certification of lawnmowers, chippers, and similar machinery.
- Electrical Shock Protection Testing: Tests insulation performance when paired with an Amphenol connector.
- Quality Control: Validates design compliance for manufacturers, labs, and inspection agencies.
