Commission Regulation (EU) 2015/1095 of 5 May 2015 implementing Directive 2009/125/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council with regard to ecodesign requirements for professional refrigerated storage cabinets, blast cabinets, condensing units and process chillers (Text with EEA relevance)

ANNEX X Verification procedure for market surveillance purposes for condensing units

When performing the market surveillance checks referred to in Article 3(2) of Directive 2009/125/EC, the authorities of Member States shall apply the following verification procedure for the requirements set out in Annex V:

1.

The Member State authorities shall test one single unit per model.

2.

The condensing unit model shall be considered to comply with the applicable requirements set out in Annex V where:

(a)

the declared values comply with the requirements set out in Annex V;

(b)

for condensing units with a rated cooling capacity higher than 2 kW at low temperature and 5 kW at medium temperature, the seasonal energy performance ratio (SEPR) is not more than 10 % lower than the declared value, with point A measured at the rated cooling capacity;

(c)

for condensing units with a rated cooling capacity lower than 2 kW at low temperature and 5 kW at medium temperature, the rated coefficient of performance (COPA ) is not more than 10 % lower than the declared value measured at the rated cooling capacity;

(d)

for condensing units with a rated cooling capacity lower than 2 kW at low temperature and 5 kW at medium temperature, the coefficients of performance COPB, COPc, COPD are not more than 10 % lower than the declared value measured at the declared cooling capacity;

3.

If the result referred to in point 2 is not achieved, the Member State authorities shall randomly select three additional units of the same model for testing.

4.

The condensing unit model shall be considered to comply with the applicable requirements set out in Annex V where:

(a)

for condensing units with a rated cooling capacity higher than 2 kW at low temperature and 5 kW at medium temperature, the average of the three units for seasonal performance energy ratio (SEPR) is not more than 10 % lower than the declared value, with point A measured at the rated cooling capacity;

(b)

for condensing units with a rated cooling capacity lower than 2 kW at low temperature and 5 kW at medium temperature, the average of the three units for the rated coefficient of performance (COPA ) is not more than 10 % lower than the declared value measured at the rated cooling capacity;

(c)

for condensing units with a rated cooling capacity lower than 2 kW at low temperature and 5 kW at medium temperature, the averages of the three units for the coefficients of performance COPB, COPc, COPD are not more than 10 % lower than the declared value measured at the declared cooling capacity.

5.

If the results referred to in point 4 are not achieved, the model shall be considered not to comply with this Regulation.

Member State authorities shall use the measurement and calculation methods set out in Annex VI.

The verification tolerances set out in this Annex relate only to the verification of the measured parameters by Member State authorities and shall not be used by the supplier as an allowed tolerance to establish the values in the technical documentation.
