Automatic data processing machine- IS 13252(Part 1) IEC-60950

In today’s tech-driven world, electronic devices are everywhere—from our homes and offices to factories and even in remote villages. But how do we know these devices are safe to use ? That’s where IS 13252 (Part 1) comes in.

IS 13252 (Part 1) is a safety standard set by the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS). It ensures that information technology devices like computers, projectors, storage drives, and other smart equipment are built safely—so they don’t overheat, catch fire, or pose an electric shock risk.

What is an Automatic Data Processing Machine (ADPM)

Automatic processing machine refers to the usage of automated techniques to process the data. Typically, this uses repetitive activities to process large volumes of similar data.

At ITC (India) Pvt Ltd, we specialize in advanced digital solutions, including Automatic Data Processing Machines (ADPMs). But what exactly are these machines?

Think of ADPMs as smart computers or devices that can:

  • Read data from magnetic cards or barcodes
  • Process that information quickly
  • Store it securely
  • Share it when needed

All devices that fall under the ADPM category are :

  • All-in-One PCs
  • Industrial computers
  • Mini desktop PCs
  • TV sticks
  • Projectors
  • Passport Reader
  • Point Of Sale Terminals
  • Mail process Machines/Postage Machines/Franking Machine
  • Power Banks to be used In moveable Applications
  • Smart Card Reader
  • Power Adaptors For It Equipments
  • Cctv Cameras/Cctv Recorders
  • USB Driven Barcode Readers,Iris Scanners,
  • Barcode Scanners and Optical Fingerprint Scanners
  • External storage devices

Why is IS 13252 Certification a must ?

Back in 2013, the BIS made it mandatory for companies to register these devices under the Compulsory Registration Scheme (CRS) if they fall under IS 13252 (Part 1). That means before selling these products in the Indian market, manufacturers must ensure their products are tested, certified, and safe for public use.

In 2025, with AI-driven devices, edge computing, and smart industrial solutions growing fast, this certification acts like a safety seal. It shows customers and regulators that:

  • The product won’t malfunction dangerously
  • It’s been reviewed by independent labs
  • It meets all Indian safety standards

Whether you’re a consumer buying a smart TV stick or a company investing in mini PCs for your factory, products certified under IS 13252 mean peace of mind.

At ITC (India) Pvt Ltd , we are committed to not just innovation, but safe innovation. All our ADPM products fully comply with IS 13252 (Part 1):2010, ensuring safety, reliability, and long-term value.
