General Information

Overview
EN 1048:2014 - published by CEN - is the European standard that defines test procedures for establishing the performance of air‑cooled liquid coolers (dry coolers). It applies to remote, forced‑convection dry coolers in which the liquid remains single‑phase and is intended to provide uniform, repeatable methods for measuring product identification, cooling capacity, air flow rate, liquid‑side pressure drop, and energy (fan) requirements. The standard explicitly excludes liquid coolers designed primarily for installation inside the machinery compartment of packaged products and does not address technical safety requirements.
Key topics and requirements
- Scope and definitions: Clear definitions for terms such as forced convection air cooled liquid cooler (dry cooler), capacity, inlet/outlet temperatures and pressure differences.
- Standard test conditions: Reference atmospheric pressure is specified (1013.25 hPa); nominal air flow is referenced to +20 °C (see standard for full set of standard capacity operating conditions).
- Measurement methods:
- Capacity measured by liquid mass flow × enthalpy difference (direct liquid‑side method).
- Air volume flow measured by methods capable of capturing overall turbulent flow (per CEN guidance).
- Measurement criteria and instrumentation:
- Temperature sensor placement, insulation and averaging rules to avoid stratification errors.
- Pressure tap locations in straight pipe runs.
- Requirements for calibrated flow meters and electrical measurements.
- Uncertainty limits (examples from the standard):
- Temperatures: ±0.2 K (air/liquid); liquid ΔT ±0.1 K.
- Liquid flow: ±1 %.
- Electrical power/current/voltage: ±1 % / ±0.5 % / ±0.5 %.
- Liquid differential pressure: ±1 % of reading or ±0.02 bar (whichever is higher).
- Test reporting and conversion rules: Procedures for converting measured results to standard conditions and for preparing a test report.
Applications and users
- Manufacturers of dry coolers and heat exchangers can use EN 1048:2014 to specify and verify product performance and produce comparable data sheets.
- Test laboratories use the standard to perform accredited performance testing (in line with EN ISO/IEC 17025 competence requirements).
- Consultants, specifiers and end users (HVAC, industrial cooling, process industries) rely on EN 1048 results to size equipment, compare vendors, and evaluate energy and pressure‑drop impacts.
- Useful for procurement, performance claims validation and regulatory / compliance benchmarking within Europe.
Related standards
- EN ISO/IEC 17025 (laboratory competence) is normatively referenced.
- Other CEN standards on fan testing and general heat‑exchanger testing methods are relevant when applying EN 1048:2014 (see the standard’s normative references for details).
Keywords: EN 1048:2014, dry coolers, air‑cooled liquid coolers, heat exchangers, test procedures, capacity testing, air flow rate, liquid pressure drop, fan power, CEN standard.
