Safety of household and similar electrical appliances—Part 119:Particular requirements for cosmetic and beauty care appliances incorporating lasers and intense light sources 1 Scope This clause of GB/T 4706.1-2024 is replaced by the following. This document deals with the safety of cosmetic and beauty care appliances incorporating lasers or intense light sources for household and similar purposes, where their operation relies on contact with the skin, their rated voltage being not more than 250 V. Note 101: Battery-operated appliances and other d.c. supplied appliances are within the scope of this standard. Dual supply appliances, either mains-supplied or battery-operated, are regarded as battery-operated appliances when operated in the battery mode. This standard covers appliances with a light emitting surface less than 25 cm2 . Appliances with a light emitting surface equal to or greater than 25 cm2 are within the scope of IEC 60335-2-27. Appliances not intended for normal household use but which nevertheless may be a source of danger to the public such as appliances intended to be used in beauty salons and similar premises are also within the scope of this standard. Appliances covered by the scope of this standard include but are not limited to: ——appliances for control of hair growth; ——appliances for skin and beauty care incorporating lasers or intense light sources (ILS). Note 102: Appliances incorporating lasers or intense light sources (ILS) either heat up hair follicles or skin tissue to produce thermal effects or to produce photo-biological effects from specific wavelengths. As far as is practicable, this standard deals with the common hazards presented by appliances that are encountered by all persons in and around the home. However, in general, it does not take into account: ——persons (including children) whose physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge prevents them from using the appliance safely without supervision or instruction; ——children playing with the appliance. Note 103: Attention is drawn to the fact that in many countries additional requirements are specified by the national health authorities. Note 104: This standard does not apply to ——appliances for medical purposes (IEC 60601); ——appliances for skin or hair care (IEC 60335-2-23); ——appliances for nail hardening; ——appliances for skin exposure to optical radiation with a light emitting surface equal to or greater than 25 cm2 (IEC 60335-2-27). 2 Normative references This clause of GB/T 4706.1-2024 is applicable except as follows: Addition: ISO 7010 Graphical symbols - Safety colours and safety signs - Registered safety signs ISO 14155 Clinical investigation of medical devices for human subjects - Good clinical practice IEC 60825-1:201 4 Safety of laser products - Part 1: Equipment classification and requirements IEC 62471:2006 Photobiological safety of lamps and lamp systems 3 Terms and definitions This clause of GB/T 4706.1-2024 is applicable except as follows. Addition: Additional terms and definitions given in IEC 60825-1 and IEC 62471 are also applicable. 3.1.9 Replacement: normal operation use of the appliance applied in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions 3.101 accessible emission limit maximum accessible emission permitted within a particular class of laser product or ILS risk group Note 1: Accessible emission limit is hereinafter referred to as AEL. Note 2: Wherever the text refers to “emission level not exceeding the AEL” or similar wording, it is implicit that the accessible emission is determined following the measurement criteria specified in Clause 5 of IEC 60825-1:2014 or Clause 5 of IEC 62471:2006. 3.102 Class 1C laser product laser product that during operation does not permit stray optical radiation in excess of the AEL of Class 1 for applicable wavelengths and emission durations 3.103 embedded laser laser that emits radiation within the AEL of Class 3R laser products, Class 3B laser products or Class 4 laser products, and that is incorporated in an appliance classified in a lower class 3.104 good contact state that is established when the applicator is positioned at the target skin so that the skin acts to effectively prevent stray optical radiation exposure in excess of the ocular MPE Note: Hazardous radiation emission refers to levels in excess of the ocular MPE. 3.105 intense light source source of intense broadband non-laser light which emits optical radiation exceeding that of the exempt group, and that is intended to cause a thermal or photo-chemical effect to the target tissue Note 1: Intense light sources are hereinafter referred to as ILS. Note 2: ILS may incorporate continuously emitting or pulsed xenon light bulbs, incandescent bulbs, LEDs or similar. 3.106 risk group lamp classification according to IEC 62471 3.107 stray optical radiation optical energy that is unintentionally emitted from the applicator, including scattered, reflected, and leakage radiation 3.108 maximum permissible exposure level of optical radiation to which, under normal circumstances, persons may be exposed without suffering adverse effects Note: Maximum permissible exposure is hereinafter referred to as MPE. 3.109 swivel connection means for connecting the supply cord so that the appliance can be rotated continuously without twisting the cord 4 General requirement This clause of GB/T 4706.1-2024 is applicable.
