Overview
EN 16430-3:2014 (CEN) defines the test method and rating for dry cooling capacity of fan assisted radiators, convectors and trench convectors. It covers factory‑assembled units and kits - including units with dedicated fans, units without dedicated fans, and trench convectors (with or without fans) - when the cooler and fan(s) are dedicated. The standard specifies test‑booth arrangements, measurement procedures, characteristic curves and reporting rules used to determine cooling capacity with no condensation.
Key Topics and Requirements
- Scope: Measurement of dry cooling capacity (no condensation) as a function of the under‑temperature (difference between reference air temp and mean water temp).
- Reference conditions: Reference air temperature = 28 °C ± 0.5 K; standard dry cooling capacity is defined at an under‑temperature of 10 K. Typical under‑temperature test points include 8, 10 and 12 K.
- Test booth: Uses EN 442‑2 test booth with specific deviations - insulated walls/floor/ceiling ensuring average heat flow < 0.40 W/m², surface emissivity ≥ 0.9, and controlled metal surface temperatures to keep surface-to-air differences < 1.0 K.
- Load simulation: Booth heated by 10 electrically heated dry‑cooling load simulators, each continuously variable and ≤ 180 W, with measured active power (accuracy class 1.0 or better).
- Measurement method: Cooling capacity determined in steady state from measured water mass flow and water temperature difference; procedures follow EN 442‑2 analogues. Measurement uncertainty for dry cooling capacity shall not exceed ±25 W.
- Fan considerations: Distinguishes fixed‑speed and variable‑speed fans. Characteristic curves are produced (typically from three measuring points) and fan electrical input is measured at the mains; fan power should be included by planners when accounting for net cooling loads.
- Master radiators: Primary and secondary master radiators are used for inter‑laboratory reproducibility and in‑lab repeatability (round‑robin tests).
Applications
- Performance testing and rating of radiators, convectors and trench convectors for cooling mode (dry operation)
- Product development and validation for HVAC manufacturers of fan assisted units
- Type testing for product certification, technical datasheets and performance labeling
- Comparative laboratory testing and inter‑laboratory proficiency exercises
Who uses this standard
- HVAC product manufacturers and R&D teams
- Accredited testing laboratories (EN ISO/IEC 17025)
- Building services engineers, specifiers and consultants evaluating cooling performance
- Certification bodies and regulatory authorities in Europe
