Preface:

This is the second edition of CSA C22.2 No. 61010-2-091, Safety requirements for electrical equipment for measurement, control, and laboratory use — Part 2-091: Particular requirements for cabinet X-ray systems, which is an adoption, with Canadian deviations, of the identically titled IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) Standard 61010-2-091 (second edition, 2019-02). It supersedes the previous edition published in 2014 as CAN/CSA-C22.2 No. 61010-2-091 (adopted IEC 61010-2-091:2012). It is one in a series of Standards issued by CSA Group under Part II of the Canadian Electrical Code.

For brevity, this Standard will be referred to as "CSA C22.2 No. 61010-2-091" throughout.

This Standard is intended to be used in conjunction with CAN/CSA-C22.2 No. 61010-1:12, Safety requirements for electrical equipment for measurement, control, and laboratory use — Part 1: General requirements (adopted IEC 61010-1:2010, with Canadian and US deviations), and Amendment 1:2018 to CAN/CSA-C22.2 No. 61010-1:12 (adopted IEC Amendment 1:2016, with Canadian and US deviations).

This Standard has been developed in compliance with Standards Council of Canada requirements for National Standards of Canada. It has been published as a National Standard of Canada by CSA Group.

Scope and object:

This clause of Part 1 is applicable, except as follows:

1.1 Scope

1.1.1 Equipment included in scope

Deletion:

Delete the first paragraph.

Replacement:

Replace the second paragraph (above items a) to c)) with the following new text:

This part of IEC 61010 specifies particular safety requirements for cabinet X-ray systems, which fall under any of categories a), b) or c) below.

Addition:

Add the two following new paragraphs at the end of the subclause:

Equipment covered by this document can be both PROTECTED EQUIPMENT or PARTIALLY PROTECTED EQUIPMENT, with X-ray generator voltage up to 500 kV.

A cabinet X-ray system is a system that contains an X-ray tube installed in a cabinet, which, independently of existing architectural structures except the floor on which it may be placed, is intended to contain at least that portion of a material being irradiated, provide radiation attenuation and prevent operator access to the radiation beam, during generation of X-radiation.

These cabinet X-ray systems are used in industrial, commercial, and public environments, for example, to inspect materials, to analyse materials, and to screen baggage.

1.1.2 Equipment excluded from scope

Addition:

Add the following new items to the list:

aa) Equipment intended to apply X-radiation to humans or animals,
bb) Equipment incorporating an X-ray tube but not incorporating complete shielding against X-radiation HAZARDS, such as:

equipment intended to be used within a shielded room which excludes personnel during operation,
equipment intended to be used with separate portable or temporary shielding,
equipment intended to produce an emerging beam of X-radiation.

1.2 Object

1.2.1 Aspects included in scope

Addition:

Add the following new text to the end of the first paragraph:

This part of IEC 61010 specifies requirements for the design and methods of construction of cabinet X-ray systems to provide adequate protection for OPERATORS, bystanders, trained service personnel and the surrounding area against unintentionally-emitted X-radiation and from mechanical HAZARDS related to their conveyors.
