This European Standard applies to room fan-coil units
using hot or chilled water or water mixtures.
It applies to units designed for an air flow of not more
than 0,7 m/s and an external static pressure due to
duct resistance of 65 Pa max.
Air heating may be achieved by means of electrical
resistance heaters.
This standard specifies uniform methods of testing
under non-frosting conditions, conducted on test
samples to test and ascertain the following at the
specified standard conditions:
—product identification;
—performance on condensation on the casing;
—capacity;
—performance on condensate disposal;
—liquid side pressure drop;
—air volume flow rate;
—sound power level.
This standard does not cover technical safety aspects. It is not the purpose of this standard to specify the tests used for production or field testing.
