1.1 Scope
This Standard specifies the energy efficiency labelling requirements for electric household rotary clothes dryers that are within the scope of the relevant legislation. NOTE Examples of appliances covered by this Standard include vented dryers, condenser dryers and dryers that use a heat pump as a heat source and the drying function of combination washer/dryer units. In particular, this Standard specifies the following: a) Program for energy efficiency labelling and water efficiency labelling (where applicable). (b) Comparative energy consumption (CEC]. [c) Star rating for energy efficiency labelling. [d) Energy rating label requirements. [e) Performance criteria. [f) Content, format and affixing requirements for rotary clothes dryer energy rating labels. (g) Test report content, example for the application for registration for energy efficiency labelling and water efficiency labelling. (h) Details concerning appliance registration with the relevant regulator.
1 ,4 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this Standard the definitions below apply. NOTE The following defined terms are bolded in this Standard. 1.4.1 base energy consumption BEC nominal energy consumption of a rotary clothes dryer of a given rated load capacity with a star rating index of 1.00 Note 1 to entry: Units: kilowatt-hours/year (kWh/year). Note 2 to entry: See also Clause 2.6. 1.4.2 check test test to determine whether an appliance complies with the relevant legislation, which is intended to verify claims about a model in relation to one or more of the following: (a) Energy consumption一Indicated on the energy rating label. (b) Water consumption – . Indicated on the water rating label. [c) Product performance. Note 1 to entry: For water rating label refer to AS/ NZS 6400. 1.4.3. comparative energy consumption CEC nominal energy consumption of a model of a rotary clothes dryer, based on the PAECav estimated for the model Note 1 to entry: The CEC appears on the energy rating label. Note 2 to entry: Units: kilowatt-hours/year (kWh/year). Note 3 to entry: See also Clause 2.4. 1.4.4 dryer(s) 1.4.4.1 condenser dryer(s) heated air is passed through the load while it is being tumbled and the water vapour thus accumulated is separated from the air within the dryer, converted to a liquid, and either drained or stored for later removal 1.4.4.2 vented dryer(s) heated air is passed through the load while it is being tumbled with this air and accumulated water vapour discharged from the dryer to the atmosphere 1.4.5 energy rating label label that provides consumers with information concerning the energy consumption and energy efficiency of household rotary clothes dryers Note 1 to entry: A> The energy rating label displays the product’s CEC, star rating, rated load capacity, program for energy efficiency labelling and the corresponding program time. Note 2 to entry: The base energy rating label shows 1 to 6 stars and the super efficiency energy rating label shows 7 to 10 stars, see Section 5 for labelling requirements.
1.4.11 projected annual energy consumption PAEC. estimation of energy used by a model or single unit on the program for energy efficiency labelling during one year’s use, which assumes a particular number of uses in one year and includes the field use factor Note 1 to entry: Units: kilowatt-hours/year (kWh/year). Note 2 to entry: See also Clause 2.3. 1.4.12 rated load capacity maximum mass of textile material, stated by the manufacturer for the applicable load material, in multiples of 0.5 kg, which the manufacturer claims can be treated in all operations by a clothes dryer, in accordance with the requirements of this Standard Note 1 to entry: Under typical conditions of storage, cotton fabrics contain approximately 8 % moisture; . therefore, the maximum mass includes an 8 % allowance for moisture above the bone-dry mass, i.e. the nominal bone-dry mass of a test load is equal to 92.6 % of rated capacity.
