BS EN 62552-3 specifies the essential characteristics of the household and similar refrigerating appliances cooled by internal natural convection or forced air circulation and establishes test methods for checking these characteristics.
BS EN 62552-3 describes the methods for the determination of energy consumption characteristics and defines how these can be assembled to estimate energy consumption under different usage and climate conditions. BS EN 62552-3 also defines the determination of volume.
BS EN 62552-3 on energy consumption and volume of refrigerating appliances is useful for:
BS EN 62552-3 specifies the methods for the determination of energy consumption and defines how these can be assembled to estimate energy consumption under different usage and climate conditions. that helps to save energy, reduce air and water pollution, and conserve natural resources. At the same time, efficiency also saves money.
BS EN 62552-3 provides refrigerating appliances manufacturers, regulatory authorities, and consumers a way of consistently evaluating energy use. provided test methods and characteristics reflect actual usage conditions without compromising reliability and cost-effectiveness.
BS EN 62552-3 provides characteristics and test methods for energy consumption and volume of refrigerating appliances like household refrigerators, cryogenics, air conditioning, that help in the manufacture and use of refrigerating appliances that are designed exclusively for built-in in-house.
BS EN 62552-3:2020 supersedes BS EN 62552:2013, which is withdrawn.
BS EN 62552-3:2020 includes the definition of the “regional function”, i.e., the calculation formula for annual energy consumption for Europe, changes with respect to BS EN 62552:2013.
