Resumen:
This European Standard specifies the laboratory test methods and test requirements for the testing ofaerodynamic, thermal, acoustic and the electrical performance characteristics of non-ducted mechanical supply and exhaust ventilation units used in single dwellings. The purpose of this document is not to consider the quality of ventilation but to test the performance of the equipment. In general, a ventilation unit contains: - fans for mechanical supply and exhaust; - air filters; - air-to-air heat exchanger for heat and possibly humidity recovery; - control system; - inlet and outlet grilles. Such equipment can be provided in more than one assembly, the separate assemblies of which aredesigned to be used together. Such equipment can contain alternating heat exchangers which provide separate supply and exhaust airflows. In certain cases, i.e. alternating ventilation unit, the manufacturer may declare that the equipment can be installed in such a way that it serves more than one room. For the purpose of this document, these products are assessed in a single room. This document does not deal with ducted units or units with heat pumps. Safety requirements are given in EN 60335-2-40 and EN 60335-2-80. In comparison to EN 13141-8:2014, the title is modified to be more inadequacy with the content of the document but the scope is unchanged.
