Current through June 24, 2024
The definitions contained in chs.
			  NR
			  400,
			  419,
			  420, and 421 apply to the terms
			  used in this chapter. In addition, the following definitions apply to the terms
			  used in this chapter:
(1g) "Aerosol
			product" means solvent or solvent solution expelled by a propellant from a
			hand-held non-refillable pressurized container.
(1r) "Blanket or roller wash" has the meaning
			given it in s.
			NR
			422.02(12).
(2) "Cartridge filter" means a perforated
			canister containing filtration paper or activated carbon, or both, that is used
			to remove solid particles and fugitive dyes from soil-laden solvent.
(5) "Dry cleaning facility" means any
			facility engaged in the cleaning of fabrics or leather in an essentially
			nonaqueous solvent by means of one or more washes in solvent, extraction of
			excess solvent by spinning, and drying by tumbling in an airstream. The
			facility includes but is not limited to any washer, dryer, filter and
			purification systems, waste disposal systems, holding tanks, pumps, and
			attendant piping and valves.
(5g)
			"Electrical apparatus component" means an internal component such as wires,
			windings, stators, rotors, magnets, contacts, relays, energizers and
			connections in an apparatus that generates or transmits electrical energy
			including, but not limited to: alternators, generators, transformers, electric
			motors, cables and circuit breakers, except for the actual cabinet in which the
			components are housed. Electrical components of all rotogravure, letterpress,
			flexographic and lithographic application equipment and hot-line tools are also
			included in this category.
(5m)
			"Flexible magnetic data storage disc" means a flat, circular plastic film,
			contained in a non-rigid envelope, with a magnetic coating on which digital
			information can be stored by selective magnetization of portions of the flat
			surface.
(5r) "Flexographic
			printing" has the meaning given it in s.
			NR
			422.02(35).
(6) "Freeboard height" means, for a cold
			cleaner, the distance from the liquid solvent level in the degreaser tank to
			the lip of the tank. For a vapor degreaser it means the distance from the top
			of the vapor zone to the lip of the degreaser tank.
(7) "Freeboard ratio" means the freeboard
			height divided by the internal width of the degreaser tank.
(7m) "Hot-line tool" means a specialized tool
			used primarily on the transmission systems, sub-transmission systems and
			distribution systems for replacing and repairing circuit components or for
			other types of work with electrically energized circuits.
(8c) "Letterpress printing" means the method
			in which the image area is raised relative to the non-image area and the ink is
			transferred directly from the ink roller to the plate cylinder.
(8g) "Lithographic printing" has the meaning
			given it in s.
			NR
			422.02(48).
(8p) "Medical device" means an instrument,
			apparatus, implement, machine, contrivance, implant, in vitro reagent or other
			similar article, including any component or accessory that meets any one of the
			following conditions:
(a) It is intended for
			use in the diagnosis of disease or other conditions, or in the cure,
			mitigation, treatment or prevention of disease.
(b) It is intended to affect the structure or
			function of the body.
(c) It is
			defined as a "device" under
			21 USC
			321.
Note: Common examples of such medical devices include but are
			  not limited to x-ray machines, medical lasers, diagnostic ultrasound products,
			  thermometers, bedpans, artificial hearts, pacemakers, pregnancy test kits,
			  scalpels, tongue depressors and bandages.
