INTRODUCTION

Temperature sensing controls are devices that monitor and control temperature in a variety of applications. This device includes sensors that measure the temperature of a particular environment or substance. Based on the temperature readings, these controls can trigger actions to regulate temperature. They are usually used in residential, commercial setting, in vehicles to monitor engine temperature, cabin temperature, and various components.

To ensure the product quality of temperature sensing controls, the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) has made it mandatory for manufacturers to undergo BIS registration and obtain the BIS ISI mark before selling it in the market. Manufacturers can use the ISI Mark on their products only after obtaining a license from BIS that is granted after BIS registration. The presence of the ISI mark on a product indicates that it complies with BIS's stringent quality standards.

Temperature sensing controls are covered by IS/IEC 60730-2-9:2011.

IS/IEC 60730-2-9 covers different varieties of automatic temperature-sensing electrical controls; each has a number of classifications. This section of IEC 60730 covers automatic electrical temperature sensing controls for use in, on, or in conjunction with equipment, such as electrical controls for heating, air conditioning, and similar applications. The equipment may use electricity, gas, oil, solid fuel, solar thermal energy, or a combination of these.

This standard also applies to automatic electrical temperature sensing controls for public-use equipment, such as that used in shops, offices, hospitals, farms, and commercial and industrial applications. Unless specifically mentioned in the relevant equipment standard, this standard does not apply to automatic electrical temperature sensing controls intended solely for industrial process applications.

This standard applies to the inherent safety of equipment, the operating values, operating times, and operating sequences associated with equipment safety, and the testing of automatic electrical temperature sensing control devices used in or in conjunction with equipment. The manufacturer must ensure that the product meets the requirements of applicable Indian standards.
