1 Scope

This European Standard specifies aerodynamic, acoustic and electrical power performance test methods for fans used in residential ventilation. These methods primarily concern:

— ventilation fans installed on a wall or in a window without any duct;
— ventilation fans installed in the downstream of a duct;
— ventilation fans installed in the upstream of a duct;
— ventilation fans installed in a duct;
— encased ventilation fans having several inlets.

For acoustic performance testing one of the following methods is used:

— in-duct method;
— reverberant room method;
— enveloping surface method.
