This document specifies the performance and the corresponding methods of test of AC ventilating fans for household and similar purposes intended for air forcing and exhaust, driven by single-phase AC motors having a power consumption of less than 1 25 W (including any associated regulators) for use on single-phase AC circuits not exceeding 250 V.
This document applies to ventilating fans such as partition fans for walls and windows and duct fans.
NOTE This document does not apply to:
– the safety of electric fans for household and similar purposes (IEC 60335-2- 80);
– the performance of comfort fans (IEC 60879);
– range hoods and other cooking fume extractors (IEC 61 591 );
– airborne acoustic noise for fans (IEC 60704-2-7);
– electromagnetic compatibility of fans (CISPR 1 4-1 and CISPR 1 4-2, IEC 61 000-3-2, IEC 61 000-3-3).
