Overview
This new edition of the standard contains updates and revisions of DIN EN 60519-6 (VDE 0721-6):2003-04, which was used over several years. It describes safety requirements for industrial microwave heating equipment and installations specially designed for specific applications, unlike household, commercial and laboratory microwave appliances. Criteria for discrimination between these categories are dealt with in the scope. The responsible committee is K 362 "Industrielle Elektrowärme" ("Industrial electroheat") of the DKE (German Commission for Electrical, Electronic and Information Technologies) at DIN and VDE.
