Peruvian Household Refrigerator Test Standard
●Test standard: IEC 62552:2007 (energy efficiency) + IEC 60704-2-14 (noise, voluntary)
● Test voltage: 220V 60Hz
● Certification requirements: type test + batch inspection/type test + factory inspection
Scope of application of household refrigerator products in Peru
● Suitable for grid-connected domestic refrigeration appliances with a usable volume between 10 and 1500 liters. They are divided into the following categories:
Category 1: Refrigerators with one or more refrigerator compartments.
Category 2: Wine storage cabinets.
Category 3: Refrigerator-freezers and refrigerators with an unrated compartment.
Category 4: Refrigerators with one-star compartment.
Category 5: Refrigerator with 2-star compartment.
Category 6: Refrigerator with three-star compartment.
Category 7: Refrigerated Freezers.
Category 8: Cabinet Freezers (Vertical).
Category 9: Top-opening freezers (horizontal).
Category 10: Multipurpose and other types of refrigeration appliances.
● Not suitable for the following types of refrigeration appliances:
a) Refrigeration appliances that use primarily non-electrical energy sources, such as liquefied petroleum gas (LPG).
b) Battery powered refrigeration appliances that can be connected to the mains through an AC/DC transformer.
c) Customized refrigeration appliances, manufactured to specific specifications, are not equivalent to other types of refrigerators.
d) Appliances whose primary function is not to preserve food by refrigeration, such as a stand-alone ice maker or cold drink maker.
e) Refrigeration equipment used in the service industry, the removal of refrigerated food can be detected electronically, and this information can be automatically transmitted to a remote control system for accounting through a network connection.
f) Refrigerators, freezers and refrigerator-freezers using equipment other than electric compressors as cooling medium (eg Peltier effect).
g) Refrigeration appliances specially manufactured for industrial or commercial purposes or powered by polyphase power (2 or 3 Φ).
h) Wine coolers (although they may have a refrigeration circuit with a compressor, they do not operate within the temperature range of the test standard).
Peru Energy Efficiency Certification Process
The first step:Enterprises provide product information and submit an application
The second step:Develop a certification scheme
The third step:Send samples to the laboratory for testing and issue an energy efficiency test report
The fourth step:Factory Review (if applicable)
The fifth step:After the certification body evaluates, issue a certificate of conformity
The sixth step:Annual Monitoring (where applicable)
