Preface
This is the harmonized CSA Group and UL standard for Household and similar electrical appliances – Safety – Part 2-69: Particular requirements for wet and dry vacuum cleaners, including power brush, for commercial use. It is the third edition of CSA C22.2 No. 60335-2-69, and the first edition of UL 60335-2-69. This edition of CSA C22.2 No. 60335-2-69 supersedes the previous edition published in 2001 as CAN/CSA-E60335-2-69 (adopted IEC 60335-2-69:1997, including Amendment 1:2000).
This harmonized standard is based on IEC Publication 60335-2-69, Fifth edition, Household and similar electrical appliances – Safety – Part 2-69: Particular requirements for wet and dry vacuum cleaners, including power brush, for commercial use, issued June 2016. IEC 60335-2-69 is copyrighted by the IEC.
This harmonized standard was prepared by CSA Group and Underwriters Laboratories Inc. (UL). The efforts and support of the Technical Harmonization Committee are gratefully acknowledged.
This standard is considered suitable for use for conformity assessment within the stated scope of the standard.
This standard was reviewed by the CSA Subcommittee on Electrical Motor and Battery-Operated Cleaning Appliances for Industrial and Commercial Use, under the jurisdiction of the CSA Technical Committee on Consumer and Commercial Products and the CSA Strategic Steering Committee on Requirements for Electrical Safety, and has been formally approved by the CSA Technical Committee. 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.

This clause of Part 1 is replaced by the following.
This part of IEC 60335 deals with the safety of electrical motor-operated vacuum cleaners, including BACKPACK VACUUM CLEANERS, and DUST EXTRACTORS, for wet suction, dry suction, or wet and dry suction, intended for commercial indoor or outdoor use with or without attachments. They may be provided with a blowing or inflating function.
It also deals with the safety of CENTRALLY-SITED VACUUM CLEANERS, excluding the installation of the system.
1DV.1 DR Modification to add the following:
Clause 1DV.1 of the Part 1 applies.
NOTE 101 Attention is drawn to the fact that additional requirements on the safe installation of CENTRALLY-SITED VACUUM CLEANERS are not addressed by this standard but need to be taken into account.
NOTE 102 This standard applies to machines for COMMERCIAL USE. The following list, although not comprehensive, gives an indication of locations that are included in the scope:
– public use areas such as hotels, schools, hospitals;
– industrial locations, for example factories and manufacturing shops;
– retail outlets, for example shops and supermarkets;
– business premises, for example offices and banks;
– all uses other than normal housekeeping purposes.

– mains powered motors up to a RATED VOLTAGE of 250 V for single-phase appliances and 480 V for other appliances,
– battery powered motors.
1DV.2 DE Modification to replace the paragraph and dashed list following note 102 with following:
They are not equipped with a traction drive. Machines equipped with traction drive are under the scope of CSA C22.2 No. 60335-2-72 / UL 60335-2-72. The following power systems are covered:
– mains powered motors up to a RATED VOLTAGE of 250 V for single-phase appliances and 480 V for other appliances,
– battery powered motors.
This standard also applies to machines handling HAZARDOUS DUST, such as asbestos.
NOTE 103 Additional requirements for machines handling HAZARDOUS DUST are given in Annex AA. Attention is drawn to the fact that in many countries additional requirements on hazardous substances might apply.
