UL-8752:2012 pdf free download – STANDARD FOR SAFETY Organic Light Emitting Diode (OLED) Panels.
2.4 Specific components are incomplete in construction features or restricted in performance capabilities. Such components are intended for use only under limited conditions, such as certain temperatures not exceeding specified limits, and shall be used only under those specific conditions.
3 Units of Measurement
3.1 Values stated without parentheses are the requirement. Values in parentheses are explanatory or approximate information.
3.2 Unless otherwise indicated, all voltage and current values mentioned in this standard are root-mean-square (rms).
4 Undated References
4.1 See Annex B for a list of publications referenced in this standard. Any undated reference to a code or standard appearing in the requirements of this standard shall be interpreted as referring to the latest edition of that code or standard.
5 Glossary
5.1 For the purposes of this standard, the following definitions apply.
5.2 FIXED LUMINAIRE — A lighting assembly intended for fixed mounting and permanent connection to the facility electrical system.
5.3 OLED — An assembly of organic (carbon-based) electroluminescent semiconductor material situated between two electrodes, at least one of which is transparent. When supplied with an electric current (by applying a voltage across the electrodes), the organic material emits light.
5.4 OLED PANEL — An independently operable unit consisting of one or more OLEDs (of any size) with means for connection to an electrical current source. The panel may incorporate passive electrical components to regulate the current, and may also include a frame and/or means for mounting.
5.5 PORTABLE LUMINAIRE — A complete lighting assembly connected to the electrical supply by a flexible cord and plug assembly, and able to be relocated without the use of specialized tools.
5.6 POWER SOURCE — A device connected between the branch circuit protection device and the OLED panel, intended to supply the desired voltage and/or current to the OLED panel. A power source is typically referred to as transformer, power supply, driver, ballast, or comparable designation.
5.7 RISK OF FIRE — An electrical circuit able to generate sufficient heat to ignite adjacent materials. Consideration shall be given to the heat generated during normal operation, component faults, and damaged conductors or connections.
5.8 RISK OF INJURY — Parts containing characteristics or sufficient mechanical or thermal energy that, when contacted by a person, can cause permanent damage to the body. Examples include sharp parts that can cut the skin or hot parts that can cause second degree burns.
MECHANICAL CONSTRUCTION 6 General
6.1 An OLED panel shall be formed and assembled so that it has the strength to withstand the handling
to which it may be subjected during installation and use, without increased risk of fire or injury to persons.
7 Mounting
7.1 An OLED panel intended to be secured directly to the building structure shall be provided with installation instructions, per the Installation and Operation Instructions, Section 27. Mounting hardware shall either be packaged with the panel or the installation instructions shall specify the types of acceptable mounting fasteners and systems to be used.
8 Glass
8.1 OLED panels with glass edges or corners that are accessible during use or maintenance shall be seamed, swiped, tire-polished, or similarly treated to eliminate sharpness.
