Underwriters Laboratories

UL is responding to an industry request by laboratory equipment manufacturers working in the highly regulated health-care industry to further distinguish their laboratory equipment as suitable for use in health-care applications and for In Vitro Diagnostic applications. These new CCNs are:

• Laboratory In Vitro Diagnostic Electrical Equipment (OGUR)
• Laboratory Electrical Equipment for Use in Health Care Applications (OGUI)

Please contact your local customer service team and request a partial transfer. Note: your manufacturing location will be charged a FUS fee for each discrete model number in a different CCN at each location, so this may affect your FUS fees.

There have been no changes to the standard, UL 61010. These CCNs have been created in response to industry and health-care regulators requiring distinction between UL 61010 equipment and laboratory equipment for use in health-care applications.

UL's online certifications directory contains the guide information.

As long as the product meets all applicable requirements, we can offer a complementary listing to both applicable product categories (OGTK and either OGUI or OGUR, depending on application). There is only one FUS fee for products under a complementary listing.

The decision is based on function. If the centrifuge is spinning human fluids, it would have to be OGUR.

It can't be transferred to OGUR. OGUR is In vitro diagnostic equipment, which needs the -101 standard.
