This European Standard specifies the requirements and test methods for the construction, safety, and marking of domestic direct gas-fired tumble dryers, of types B22D and B23D, of nominal heat input not exceeding 6 kW, hereafter referred to as "appliances".
This European Standard does not apply to:
a)   catalytic combustion appliances;
b)   appliances designed exclusively for industrial purposes;
c)   appliances intended to be used in locations where special conditions prevail, such as the presence of a corrosive or explosive atmosphere;
d)   appliances of the condensing type wherein the heated air and products of combustion used for the drying process are dehumidified by cooling with water or air;
e)   appliances intended to be used in vehicles or on board ships or aircraft.
This European Standard covers type testing only.

Frequently Asked Questions

CEN/TC 299/WG 1 is a Working Group within the European Committee for Standardization (CEN). It is named "Gas-fired washing and drying appliances" and is responsible for: Standardization of the requirements for the construction, safety, rational use of energy, marking and testing of gas-fired washing appliances and drying appliances. This committee has published 2 standards.

CEN/TC 299/WG 1 develops CEN standards in the area of Information technology. The scope of work includes: Standardization of the requirements for the construction, safety, rational use of energy, marking and testing of gas-fired washing appliances and drying appliances. Currently, there are 2 published standards from this working group.

The European Committee for Standardization (CEN) is a public standards organization that brings together the national standardization bodies of 34 European countries. CEN provides a platform for developing European Standards (ENs) and other technical documents in relation to various products, materials, services, and processes, supporting the European Single Market.

A Working Group in CEN is a specialized group responsible for developing standards or technical work within a defined scope. These bodies bring together international experts to create consensus-based standards that support global trade, safety, and interoperability.
