CEN/TC 413/WG 2 develops CEN standards in the area of Information technology. 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.
This document is applicable to eutectic cooling devices which are intended to be used with insulated transport equipment.
The following applications are covered:
- Eutectic cooling devices with or without compressor/condenser unit intended to be installed into insulated means of transport (e.g. lorries, trailers, swap bodies, other transport equipment and wagons). Charging of the eutectic elements from the liquid to the solid phase can be performed either by a compressor/condenser unit mounted onto the vehicle or by a stationary direct or indirect system. The eutectic cooling devices are equipped, if relevant, with necessary components for the charging, transmission, cooling and/or with temperature control devices. The eutectic elements can be fitted with or without fans;
- Eutectic cooling devices with independent eutectic elements are not covered by this document.
This document specifies the testing methodologies.
This document is only applicable for mono-temperature eutectic cooling devices. This document does not provide any safety requirements.

This European Standard applies to mechanical cooling devices with air circulation heat exchangers with or without heating device. The mechanical cooling devices are intended to be used with insulated transport equipment. They include a drive or a means of force transmission and are provided with all the components necessary for the controlled thermal transport system. The mechanical cooling devices can be powered with independent engine and/or vehicle engine and/or any other source of energy. This standard specifies the testing methodologies.
