BIS Certification for
Vaporizers
IS 302(Part 1):2024 and IEC 60335-1:2020
The BIS Certification for Vaporizers under the Safety of Household, Commercial, and Similar Electrical Appliances (Quality Control) Order, 2024, enhances safety and quality. If you are a manufacturer or importer, obtaining the ISI Mark on Vaporizers becomes mandatory. Vaporisers are essential appliances that provide moisture to the air, supporting respiratory health. Conformity certification to IS 302(Part 1):2024 and IEC 60335-1:2020 ensures that vaporisers are designed to minimise overheating, electrical hazards, and improper use. This certification not only protects consumers but also promotes manufacturers' reputation in the market.
This standard provides the basic safety requirements for domestic electrical appliances and similar products to protect against electric shock, fire, and overheating. Obtaining certification under Scheme-I is not just a regulatory requirement but an essential process for Indian households and healthcare environments. Without proper testing, these products cannot be legally sold in the Indian market.
Testing Parameters for Vaporizers IS 302 Part 1: 2024/IEC 60335-1
Vaporisers manufactured or imported in India must comply with IS 302 (Part 1): 2024 / IEC 60335-1:2020 to obtain mandatory BIS certification and the ISI Mark. Testing focuses on electrical safety, thermal stability, moisture resistance, and dry-run performance:
- Dry-Run & Overload Protection tests: Ensure that the vaporisers have float switches and thermal cut-off so that they shut off themselves in case of a lack of water to save it from overheating and causing fire.
- Tilt & Stability Test: Aims to check the width of the stand of the vaporizer. No device should turn over on a slope.
- Leakage Current & Electric Strength: Tests are conducted at operational temperatures to ensure sufficient electric insulating protection against electric shock.
- Heat & Fire Resistance: Testing materials and plastics around the heat source using glow-wire and ball pressure methods to ensure they do not deform or melt.
- Moisture Resistance includes housing testing: Confirm that electrical parts of the vaporizer that are situated inside are protected against splashes and spills.
