This part of IEC 60730 applies to automatic electrical pressure sensing controls for use in, 
on or in association with, equipment. The equipment may use electricity, gas, oil, solid fuel, 
solar thermal energy, etc. or a combination thereof. 
NOTE Throughout this standard, the word “equipment” includes “appliances” and “control system”. 
This standard is also applicable to individual pressure sensing controls utilized as part of a 
control system or pressure sensing controls which are mechanically integral with multi-
functional controls having non-electrical outputs. 
Automatic electrical pressure sensing controls for equipment used by the public, such as 
equipment intended to be used by laymen in shops, in light industry and on farms, are within 
the scope of this standard. 
This standard does not apply to pressure sensing controls intended exclusively for industrial 
process applications unless explicitly mentioned in the relevant equipment standard.dition 3.1 2019-09 CONSOLIDATED VERSION VERSION CONSOLIDéE colour inside Automatic electrical controls – Part 2-6: Particular requirements for automatic electrical pressure sensing controls including mechanical requirements Dispositifs de commande électrique automatiques – Partie 2-6: Exigences particulières pour les dispositifs de commande électrique automatiques sensibles à la pression y compris les exigences mécaniques IEC 60730-2-6:2015-04+AMD1:2
