Sunbeds

What is the danger

The product poses a risk of skin burns because the manufacturer’s marking in the device gives a false information of the UV type of the sunbed and consequently UV irradiance of it as it should not be classified to UV type 3 determined in the standard EN 60335-2-27. The erythemally effective irradiance shall not exceed 0,15 W/m2 for both wavelengths shorter or equal than 320 nm and longer than 320 nm. In the lower part the measured values were 0,240 W/m2 (wavelength l£320 nm) and 0,115 W/m2 (wavelength l>320 nm) and in the upper part 0,191 W/m2 (l£320 nm) and 0,121 W/m2 (l>320 nm), respectively. The product does not comply with the relevant European standard EN 60335-2-27.
