This webinar is organised by UN Environment Programme OzonAction on IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) Safety Standards.
This event intends to offer an overview of safety standards applicable to RACHP equipment, and focus on the revisions of standard IEC 60335-2-89, on particular requirements for commercial refrigerating appliances with an incorporated or remote refrigerant unit or compressor, and standard IEC 60335-2-40, on particular requirements for electrical heat pumps, air-conditioners and dehumidifiers.
Such an update is important for Ozone Officers, Officials from Standardization Authorities, and National Refrigeration and Air-Conditioning Experts.
