This document specifies determining sound power levels of fans under standardized laboratory conditions from sound pressure levels measured in a reverberant room. This document is applicable for determination of the acoustic performance of fans. This document can additionally be applied to determine the acoustic performance of fans combined with an ancillary device, such as a roof cowl or damper or, where the fan is fitted with a silencer, the sound power resulting from the fan and silencer combination. For guidance of testing with ancillary items, see Annex C. This document applies to fans as defined in ISO 13349-1. It is limited to the determination of airborne sound emission for the specified set-ups. Vibration is not measured, nor is the sensitivity of airborne sound emission to vibration effects determined. This document is intended to be used in conjunction with ISO 5136, which covers the in-duct method, and ISO 10302-1 for small fans. The size of fans which can be tested in accordance with this document is limited only by the practical aspects of the test set-up. Test fan dimensions and air performance will control the room size. NOTE Based on usage, small fans can be tested according to this document or to ISO 10302-1. For reverberant field tests, the size of equipment under test is limited to less than 2 % of the room volume. For low power fans (up to 3 kW) that can be run from a domestic power supply (single phase AC at a voltage not exceeding 250 V and a current not exceeding 16 A), reference IEC 60704-2-7[18]. The test arrangements in this document establish the laboratory conditions necessary for a successful test. It is difficult to meet these requirements in situ and this document is not intended for field measurements. In these situations, users are reminded that the acoustic environment is unlikely to meet the specified conditions and there can be additional acoustic system effects where inlet and outlet conditions at the fan are less than ideal.

This document specifies performance tolerances and the technical data presentation for fans of all types. It does not apply for fans designed solely for low-volume air circulation, such as those used for household or similar purposes (ceiling and table fans, extractor fans, etc.). For jet fans, refer to ISO 13350. The upper limit of fan work per unit mass is normally 25 kJ/kg, corresponding to an increase of fan pressure of approximately 30 kPa for a mean density in the fan of 1,2 kg/m3. For higher values, agreement is to be reached between the supplier and the user. This document applies the five installation categories defined in ISO 5801: A free inlet, free outlet; B free inlet, ducted outlet; C ducted inlet, free outlet; D ducted inlet, ducted outlet; E free inlet and free outlet without a partition. The performance of a fan can vary considerably with the installation category it is operating within. Therefore, these categories form an important part of the definition of the fan’s technical data presentation. NOTE International acceptance of the five installation categories provides the opportunity to base a contract on the most appropriate fan category for the end user and the system designer. Correspondingly, the likelihood of the fan providing the agreed performance, without compromise or concession, is enhanced. The efficiency scaling procedures described in 8.1.5 apply to centrifugal fans and axial fans within the specific speed ranges shown in Table 4. To date, there is no experimental data to confirm how they apply to mixed flow fans, having specific speeds in between. Category E fans are treated in Clause 7.

IEC 60335-2-40:2024 deals with the safety of electric heat pumps, sanitary hot water heat pumps and air conditioners, incorporating motor-compressors as well as hydronic fan coils units, dehumidifiers (with or without motor-compressors), thermoelectric heat pumps and partial units, their maximum rated voltage being not more than 300 V for single phase appliances and 600 V for other appliances including direct current (DC) supplied appliances and battery-operated appliances.
Appliances not intended for normal household use but which nevertheless can be a source of danger to the public, such as appliances intended to be used by laypersons in shops, in light industry and on farms, are within the scope of this standard.
The appliances referenced above can consist of one or more factory-made assemblies. If provided in more than one assembly, the separate assemblies are used together, and the requirements are based on the use of matched assemblies.
A definition of ‘motor-compressor’ is given in IEC 60335-2-34, which includes the statement that the term motor-compressor is used to designate either a hermetic motor-compressor or semi-hermetic motor-compressor.
Requirements for containers intended for storage of the heated water included in sanitary hot water heat pumps are, in addition, covered by IEC 60335-2-21.
This standard does not take into account refrigerants other than group A1, A2L, A2 and A3 as defined by ISO 817. Flammable refrigerants are limited to those of a molar mass of more than or equal to 42 kg/kmol based on WCF (worst case formulation) as specified in ISO 817.
As far as practical, this standard deals with common hazards presented by appliances that are encountered in normal use and assumes that installation, servicing, decommissioning, and disposal are safely handled by competent persons and accidental release of refrigerants is avoided. However, it does not specify the criteria to ensure competence of persons during installation, servicing and disposal. Safety requirements during disposal are not specified in this standard.
Annex HH provides informative requirements on competence of personnel. Criteria for competence of personnel for the purpose of certification schemes can be found in ISO 22712.
Unless specifications are covered by this standard, including the annexes, requirements for refrigerating safety are covered by:
– ISO 5149-1:2014, ISO 5149-1:2014/AMD1:2015, and ISO 5149-1:2014/AMD2:2021,
– ISO 5149-2:2014 and ISO 5149-2:2014/AMD1:2020,
– ISO 5149-3:2014 and ISO 5149-3:2014/AMD1:2021.
Supplementary heaters, or a provision for their separate installation, are within the scope of this standard, but only heaters which are designed as a part of the appliance package, the controls being incorporated in the appliance.
Attention is drawn to the fact that
– for appliances intended to be used in vehicles or on-board ships or aircraft, additional requirements can be necessary;
– in many countries, additional requirements are specified, for example, by the national health authorities responsible for the protection of labour and the national authorities responsible for storage, transportation, building constructions and installations.
This standard does not apply to
– humidifiers intended for use with heating and cooling equipment (IEC 60335-2-88);
– appliances designed exclusively for industrial processing;
– appliances intended to be used in locations where special conditions prevail, such as the presence of a corrosive or explosive atmosphere (dust, vapour or gas).

1.1 This document specifies the constructional requirements for fans constructed to Group II G (of explosion groups IIA, IIB and hydrogen) categories 1, 2 and 3, and Group II D categories 2 and 3, intended for use in explosive atmospheres.
NOTE 1 Operation conditions for the different categories of fans used in this document are defined in Clause 4.
1.3 This document specifies requirements for design, construction, testing and marking of complete fan units intended for use in potentially explosive atmospheres in air containing gas, vapour, mist and/or dusts. Such atmospheres can exist inside (the conveyed atmosphere (flammable or not)), outside, or inside and outside of the fan.
This document covers mechanical equipment, in particular fans. The “type of protection” as specified in EN ISO 80079 37:2016 is constructional safety.
1.4 This document is applicable to fans working in ambient atmospheres and with normal atmospheric conditions at the inlet, having
— absolute pressures ranging from 0,8 bar to 1,1 bar,
— and temperatures ranging from −20 °C to +60 °C,
— and maximum volume fraction of 21 % oxygen content,
— and an aerodynamic energy increase of less than 25 kJ/kg.
NOTE 1 25 kJ/kg is equivalent to 30 kPa at inlet density of 1,2 kg/m3.
This document can also be helpful for the design, construction, testing and marking of fans intended for use in atmospheres outside the validity range stated above or in cases where other material pairings need to be used. In this case, the ignition risk assessment, ignition protection provided, additional testing (if necessary), manufacturer's marking, technical documentation and instructions to the user, clearly demonstrate and indicate the equipment's suitability for the conditions the fan can encounter.
NOTE 2 Temperatures below −20 °C can be considered. Material suitability can require specific evaluation for these temperatures. With lower temperature the explosion pressure increases, which leads to increased test pressures (see A.3) and can require specific testing. Although the standard atmospheric conditions in EN ISO 80079 36:2016 give a temperature range for the atmosphere of −20 °C to +60 °C the normal ambient temperature range for the equipment is −20 °C to +40 °C unless otherwise specified and marked.
1.5 This document does not apply to:
— group I fans (fans for mining);
— explosion group IIC (other than hydrogen);
— category 1D fans;
— cooling fans or impellers on rotating electrical machines;
— cooling fans or impellers on internal combustion engines, vehicles or electric motors.
NOTE 3 Measures for category 1D fans are given in EN 1127 1:2019.
NOTE 4 Measures for explosion group IIC (other than hydrogen) are given in EN 1127 1:2019.
NOTE 5 Measures for explosion group I are given in EN ISO/IEC 80079 38:2016 and EN 1127 2:2014.

IEC 60335-2-80:2015 is available as IEC 60335-2-80:2015 RLV which contains the International Standard and its Redline version, showing all changes of the technical content compared to the previous edition. IEC 60335-2-80:2015(E) deals with the safety of electric fans for household and similar purposes, their rated voltage being not more than 250 V for single-phase appliances and 480 V for other appliances. Examples of fans that are within the scope of this standard are ceiling fans; duct fans; partition fans; pedestal fans and table fans. This standard also applies to separate controls supplied with fans. Appliances not intended for normal household use but which nevertheless may be a source of danger to the public, such as appliances intended to be used by laymen in shops, in light industry and on farms, are within the scope of this standard. As far as is practicable, this standard deals with the common hazards presented by appliances that are encountered by all persons in and around the home. However, in general, it does not take into account persons (including children) whose physical, sensory or mental capabilities; or lack of experience and knowledge prevents them from using the appliance safely without supervision or instruction. It also does not take into account children playing with the appliance. It was established on the basis of the fifth edition (2010) of that standard. This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 2002, its Amendment 1 (2007) and its Amendment 2 (2011). It constitutes a technical revision. The principal changes in this edition as compared with the second edition of IEC 60335-2-80 are as follows (minor changes are not listed): - added definition for ceiling fan suspension system (3.102); - added instructions for ceiling fan maintenance (7.12); - added instructions for ceiling fan installation (7.12.1); - added entrapment assessment criteria for table and pedestal fan with a fan head that oscillates in the up-down direction (20.102); - added requirements for insulation of pre-installed internal wiring used to supply attached luminaires (22.101); - added suspension system failure protection requirements for ceiling fans (22.102); - added motor brush wear requirements (27.3). The attention of National Committees is drawn to the fact that equipment manufacturers and testing organizations may need a transitional period following publication of a new, amended or revised IEC publication in which to make products in accordance with the new requirements and to equip themselves for conducting new or revised tests. It is the recommendation of the committee that the content of this standard be adopted for implementation nationally not earlier than 12 months or later than 36 months from the date of its publication.

This document deals with the likely degradation of air performance of fans tested in standardized airways according to ISO 5801 when compared with the performance of fans tested under actual site conditions. It deals with the performance of a number of generic types of fan and fittings. The results given are intended as guidelines and only provide trends, as the system effect depends on the exact geometry of the fan and disturbing component. The test data presented in this document are taken from an extensive experimental program conducted 20 years ago by NEL (National Engineering Laboratory, UK), mainly on axial and centrifugal fans. Data are also taken from several research projects financially supported by ASHRAE, some of them being carried out in the AMCA laboratory in Chicago, as well as from results published previously by individual fan manufacturers.

This document can also be helpful for the design, construction, testing and marking of fans intended for use in atmospheres outside the validity range stated above or in cases where other material pairings need to be used. In this case, the ignition risk assessment, ignition protection provided, additional testing (if necessary), manufacturer's marking, technical documentation and instructions to the user, clearly demonstrate and indicate the equipment's suitability for the conditions the fan can encounter.
NOTE 2 Temperatures below −20 °C can be considered. Material suitability can require specific evaluation for these temperatures. With lower temperature the explosion pressure increases, which leads to increased test pressures (see A.3) and can require specific testing. Although the standard atmospheric conditions in EN ISO 80079 36:2016 give a temperature range for the atmosphere of −20 °C to +60 °C the normal ambient temperature range for the equipment is −20 °C to +40 °C unless otherwise specified and marked.
1.5 This document does not apply to:
— group I fans (fans for mining);
— explosion group IIC (other than hydrogen);
— category 1D fans;
— cooling fans or impellers on rotating electrical machines;
— cooling fans or impellers on internal combustion engines, vehicles or electric motors.
NOTE 3 Measures for category 1D fans are given in EN 1127 1:2019.
NOTE 4 Measures for explosion group IIC (other than hydrogen) are given in EN 1127 1:2019.
NOTE 5 Measures for explosion group I are given in EN ISO/IEC 80079 38:2016 and EN 1127 2:2014.

This document specifies methods for measuring the airborne noise emitted by small air-moving devices (AMDs), such as those used for cooling electronic, electrical, and mechanical equipment where the sound power level of the AMD is of interest. Examples of these AMDs include propeller fans, tube-axial fans, vane-axial fans, centrifugal fans, motorized impellers, and their variations. This document describes the test apparatus and methods for determining the airborne noise emitted by small AMDs as a function of the volume flow rate and the fan static pressure developed by the AMD on the test apparatus. It is intended for use by AMD manufacturers, by manufacturers who use AMDs for cooling electronic equipment and similar applications, and by testing laboratories. It provides a method for AMD manufacturers, equipment manufacturers and testing laboratories to obtain comparable results. Results of measurements made in accordance with this document are expected to be used for engineering information and performance verification, and the methods can be cited in purchase specifications and contracts between buyers and sellers. The ultimate purpose of the measurements is to provide data to assist the designers of electronic, electrical or mechanical equipment which contains one or more AMDs. Based on experimental data, a method is given for calculating the maximum volume flow rate of the scaled plenum up to which this document is applicable.

IEC 60335-2-65:2023 deals with the safety of electric air-cleaning appliances for household and similar purposes, their rated voltage being not more than 250 V for single-phase appliances and 480 V for other appliances including direct current (DC) supplied appliances and battery-operated appliances.
Appliances not intended for normal household use but that nevertheless can be a source of danger to the public, such as appliances intended to be used by laymen in shops, in light industry and on farms, are within the scope of this standard. As far as is practicable, this standard deals with the common hazards presented by appliances that are encountered by all persons in and around the home. However, in general, it does not take into account:
- persons (including children) whose physical, sensory or mental capabilities; or lack of experience and knowledge prevents them from using the appliance safely without supervision or instruction;
- children playing with the appliance.
Attention is drawn to the fact that
- for appliances intended to be used in vehicles or on board ships or aircraft, additional requirements can be necessary;
- in many countries additional requirements are specified by the national health authorities, the national authorities responsible for the protection of labour and similar authorities.
This standard does not apply to
- air-cleaning appliances where harmful radiation is intentionally emitted from the appliance;
- appliances intended exclusively for industrial purposes;
- appliances intended to be used in locations where special conditions prevail, such as the presence of a corrosive or explosive atmosphere (dust, vapour or gas);
- air-cleaning systems incorporated in the building structure;
- appliances for medical purposes (IEC 60601 series).
This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 2002, Amendment 1:2008 and Amendment 2:2015. This edition constitutes a technical revision.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
a) alignment with IEC 60335-1:2020;
b) deletion or conversion to normative text for some notes (Clause 1, 11.8, 16.101);
c) addition of temperature rise limits for accessible surface (Clause 11);
d) introduction of test probe 19 (8.1.1, 20.2, B.22.3, B.22.4);
e) modification of definition of air-cleaning appliance to include self-contained appliance having treatment system other than filter (3.5.101);
f) addition of symbol IEC 60417-6040 for UV radiation air-cleaning appliances in place of the substance of the marking (7.1, 7.6, 7.12);
g) clarifications on remote operation for air cleaning appliances (22.40, 22.49,22.51);
h) removal of requirements for UV-C resistant materials and UV exposure that are now covered by Part 1 (22.106, 23.101, 32.102, Annex AA).
This part 2 is to be used in conjunction with the latest edition of IEC 60335-1 and its amendments unless that edition precludes it; in that case, the latest edition that does not preclude it is used. It was established on the basis of the sixth edition (2020) of that standard.
