The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) has issued a pre release version of the standard IEC/ASTM 62885-6:2023 PRV, 'Surface cleaning appliances - Part 6: Methods for measuring the performance of wet hard floor cleaning appliances for household or similar purposes'.

On August 4, 2023, the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) released a pre release version of the standard IEC/ASTM 62885-6:2023 PRV, "Surface cleaning appliances - Part 6: Methods for measuring the performance of wet hard floor cleaning appliances for household or similar purposes".

 

The IEC/ASTM 62885-6:2023 standard is applicable to measuring the performance of power driven and cordless wet hard floor cleaning appliances for household or similar purposes. For devices with combined functions, this standard only covers wet cleaning functions.

 

This standard aims to clearly define the basic performance characteristics of wet hard floor cleaning appliances that are of great concern to users, and to specify the measurement methods for these performance characteristics.

 

This standard does not apply to cleaning appliances and robot wet hard floor cleaning appliances according to IEC 60335-2-79 standard.

 

For safety requirements, please refer to IEC 60335-1, IEC 60335-2-2, IEC 60335-2-10, and IEC 60335-2-54 standards.

 

This second edition of the standard constitutes a technical revision, canceling and replacing the first edition of IEC/ASTM 62885-6:2018 in 2018.

 

Compared to the old version, the new version has the following major technical changes:
a) Expanded scope to include cordless cleaners.
b) Change the definition of "cleaning width" in 3.7 to "trajectory cleaning width", and provide instructions for determining "trajectory cleaning width" in 4.7.4.
c) Change the definition of "running time" in 3.22 to "battery running time".
d) In section 5.1 "Stain cleaning efficiency of hard flat flooring", an explanation of IKW soil has been added, as well as examples of penalty factor calculation and correction for designing products with cleaning gaps.
e) Renaming 5.2 "Pollution Absorption Test" to "Soil Cleaning Efficiency of Hard Flat Floors" and adding a comprehensive explanation of the execution method.
f) According to the IEC 62885-4 cordless standard, section 5.3 "Battery running time" program has been added.
g) Revised the testing soil in 7.2.2 to add content for IKW and Akzoo Nobel soils.
