PURPOSE The purpose of this manual is to prescribe procedures for the operation of the Eurovent Certified Performance Programme for Air Conditioners in accordance with the Certification Manual. II. SCOPE The programme for Air Conditioners is divided in four sub-programmes, as it applies to air conditioners in the following groups: Comfort air cooled air conditioners and air/air heat pumps rated up to 12 kW cooling capacity, except double duct and single duct units (AC1); Comfort air conditioners rated from 12 kW up to but not including 45 kW cooling capacity (AC2); Comfort air conditioners rated from 45 kW up to 100 kW cooling capacity (AC3); Close control air conditioners up to 100 kW, direct expansion and chilled water (CC). Companies may apply to participate in any of the above certification sub-programmes: Are included in the scope: Multi-split with data declared and published as combination of outdoor and indoor units with 2 indoor units only: each unit individually connected to the outdoor unit and with an expansion device inside the outdoor unit. The 2 indoor units have to be of the same mounting type. For AC1 capacity ratio must be 1 ± 0.05. Are excluded from the scope: Variable Refrigerant flow Systems Multi-split with 3 or more indoor units; AC1 multi with 2 indoors and a connection ratio different of 1 ± 0.05; Single duct mono-bloc mobile air conditioners; Packaged combined air conditioning and control mechanical ventilation; Air conditioners up to 12 kW not fulfilling the requirements of Regulation 206/2102 (see APPENDIX D). “Certify-all”requirement: If a company participates in one of the sub-programmes for Air Conditioners (AC1, AC2, AC3 and/or CC), all production models, within the scope of that sub-programme, shall be certified in accordance with the relevant Rating Standard. III. BASIC OUTLINE OF THE PROGRAMME Participation in the programme consists of the following: III.1 Application After signing the Licence Agreement, the Applicant has to fill in the declaration list for each sub-programme separately with all models that comply with respectively Rating Standard: - 6/C/001A for Air-cooled AC1 products, - 6/C/001 for Water-cooled AC1 products, AC2 and AC3 products - 6/C/004 for CC products. OM-1-2017 Published January 2017 Page 5 of 32 III.2 Qualifying procedure When the declaration file is completed, units selected by Eurovent Certita Certification shall be tested in an Independent Laboratory chosen by Eurovent Certita Certification. If the tests show conformity with the relevant Rating Standards, certification is granted until 3 months after delivery deadline of next testing campaign. III.3 Repetition procedure Every year, Eurovent Certita Certification checks whether the certified performances of the certified products still fulfil the requirements. If the participants fulfilled all previous test campaigns and provided all the necessary elements and delivered all the units for the current campaign, the certification is renewed for another campaign within the timeframe allocated by the certification schedule, see Appendix A. III.4 Failure treatment When the test results fail to comply with the requirements of the relevant Rating Standard(s) the failure treatment shall be applied. III.5 Complaint procedure Under special conditions a complaint procedure may be carried out as described in the Certification Manual. IV. OPERATION OF THE PROGRAMME IV.1 Declaration of data a. Rated performance data All characteristics and performance items shall be expressed in SI Units. Maximum of 3 significant figures shall be used forcapacity, EER, COP, SEER, SCOP, power consumption and water pressure drop and 2 significant figures for sound power. b. Certification forms Submittal for certification of models shall be made in writing and sent to Eurovent Certita Certification as an .xls or .xlsx file (Copy of these forms is part of this manual (see APPENDIX B). Declaration list (Form AC-1) shall be used for declaration of ranges, ranges, models and data. For models submitted by a private brand manufacturer (BN) the form will be used to identify the corresponding model number of the original equipment manufacturer. Technical Data Sheet (Form AC-2) for models selected for testing shall be completed with technical description of all components along with complementary declared data. Additional Information Form (Form AC-3) shall be filled-in explaining how to start the unit and to reach the proper frequency of the motor and including a contact person the laboratory can reach in case of problem. Reporting of test result (Form AC-4) is sent by Eurovent Certita Certification for models tested, showing the deviations between claimed and measured data. Response form after failure: (Form AC-5), is sent by Eurovent Certita Certification for models which failed the test, showing the list of products affected by the failed test. AC, OM-1-2017 Published January 2017 Page 6 of 32 c. Reporting of models In reporting models for certification and for publication on the Eurovent Certified Performance website, certified ratings shall be given for Packaged Air Conditioners Units and all combinations of Split Air Conditioners which are intended by the participant to be used together and which meet the requirements of the relevant Rating Standard(s). Optional devices or accessories which are used to obtain the ratings of the basic unit assembly and which affect the ratings shall be included in the certification data. Systems having coils with both horizontal and vertical orientation, when ratings are different, shall be certified to reflect the capacity and efficiency ratings for both positions. Besides current models, the Participants shall provide Eurovent Certita Certification with the list of: models under development, new models, deleted models, obsolete models. d. Basic model group and acoustical family Each Participant declaration list will be grouped in Basic Model Groups (BMG). A basic model shall be defined by units which are essentially the same in terms of thermal performance (±10% on capacity) and function (cooling or heating) and the same or comparable in terms of basic components, specifically fans, coils, compressors and motors. In the case of split packaged units, the unit containing the compressor shall be the reference unit. The Acoustical Family is defined as same reference for all sizes for outdoor units and as same reference and same mounting type for indoor units. IV.2 Selection of units to be tested Within the programme, tests may be conducted under the following procedures: Scheduled tests in qualifying procedure Scheduled tests in repetition procedure Penalty test Complaint test a. Number of units to be tested Eurovent Certita Certification shall select models on the basis of its evaluation of a Manufacturer's declaration to establish suitable criteria of types and sizes to be tested. The number of units tested each year per participant shall be as follows: 8% (rounded, at least 1) of the number of the listed basic model groups for AC1 10% (rounded, at least 1) of the number of the listed basic model groups for AC2, AC3 and CC. Examples of rounding (with 10%): 7 BMG ⇒ 1 selected unit; 14 BMG ⇒ 1 selected unit; 15 BMG ⇒ 2 selected units AC, OM-1-2017 Published January 2017 Page 7 of 32 b. Thermal measurements for AC1 For certification of seasonal efficiency, 30% of the selected units (minimum one unit) the following measurements at the following conditions shall be performed: One running test at Tol. If for the average climate Tol ≥ -10°C and a measurement has to be made at Tol (chosen conditon), the running test is unnecessary. One point at the standard condition full load, i.e. condition A (35°C) in cooling mode at TdesignC One point at +7°C standard rating condition in heating mode, as specified in EN14511-2:2013. (if declared) One point to be chosen by Eurovent Certita Certification at part load condition in cooling mode between B, C or D One point at the condition F at Tbivalent in heating mode for the average climate (mandatory to declare) One point at the condition F at Tbivalent in heating mode for each additional optional declared climate One point to be chosen by Eurovent Certita Certification at part load condition in heating mode between A (if different from F), B (if different from F), C, D or E (if ≠F) Tests of Poff, Psb and Pto (cooling mode) Pck whenever relevant (in alternance with Poff, Psb and Pto) Test of Cd if declared at a different value than the default value (0.25). For the remaining selected units from the conditions listed above: One point selected by Eurovent Certita Certification in cooling One point selected by Eurovent Certita Certification in heating This can be summarized in the following table: Table 1: Thermal measurements of AC1 units Running test at Tol cooling A (standard +35°C full load) at TdesignC heating nominal (+7°C standard rating condition) cooling B, C or D heating F at Tbiv for the average climate heating F at Tbiv for each additional climate heating A (at part load, if ≠F), B (if ≠F), C, D or E (if ≠F) Poff Psb (Cooling) Pto (cooling) Pck Cd cooling A (full load), B, C or D nominal +7°C (standard rating condition), Favg, Fcolder , Fwarmer, A (part heating load), B, C, D or E (if ≠F) 30% 70% X X (X) X X (X) X X X X X (X) X X c. Thermal measurements for AC1 Water Cooled Units, AC2, AC3 and CC At standard rating conditions, in cooling and heating as specified in EN145112:2013 (no test at part load conditions): AC, OM-1-2017 Published January 2017 Page 8 of 32 d. Acoustics measurements for AC1, AC2, AC3 and CC A weighted sound power level test for indoor(s) and outdoor shall be carried out for all units selected. e. Optional performances for AC1, AC2 and AC3 If declared, the following performances must be tested: Psb in heating LRcontmin & CcpLRcontmin in Cooling mode and if relevant, in Heating mode. The definition and testing methods are described in each relevant Rating Standard. These optional performances can be declared only by BMG and not for all the declared products. For a unit selected, where LRcontmin and CcpLRcontmin are declared, Eurovent Certita will choose to test LRcontmin in cooling or in heating. f. Acquisition of unit Deadline for delivery of units to the laboratory together with the technical forms duly completed, the starting procedure and the payment/order1 is given in the Certification Schedule (see APPENDIX A). If units, technical forms, starting procedures and payment/orders are not delivered within the time limits specified in the notification received from Eurovent Certita Certification, it is considered as non-application of procedures (see Certification Manual). g. Tests at the laboratory Units shall be installed in the test facility in accordance with the Participant published installation instructions. The Participant will provide the laboratory with full information about the installation, including at least the following items: any adjustment of the fan speeds (change of connector, switches, etc.); any change of the settings for any part of the unit (for instance, switch for floor/ceiling mounting, switch for cooling only/heat pump unit, etc.); maximum external static pressure for ducted units; exact location of the refrigerant piping for multisplit systems, above all for units intended for more than 2 indoor units; any other information necessary to the correct installation of the unit. The laboratory shall install and check out the units. The procedures used shall be in accordance with the Participant installation, start-up and service instructions. Participant personnel can be allowed to attend the setting-up and the starting of the unit on request (for inverter units for example) but not the test itself and are not permitted in the laboratory test room facility. Prior to the test, the Laboratory personnel are only allowed to: Repair leaks Repair or replace items damaged by shipping or handling 1 Depending of the licence agreement signed between Eurovent Certita Certification and the manufacturer. AC, OM-1-2017 Published January 2017 Page 9 of 32 Assure correct refrigerant charge Assure correct fan speed(s) where adjustable speed fans are used If the unit is not repairable, it shall be replaced by the Participant. h. Report of test results Upon completion of the tests on each unit, the Laboratory will render its complete report as pdf file to Eurovent Certita Certification. Eurovent Certita Certification will transmit a copy of the report together with reporting, Form AC-4, and re-rating, Form AC-5, test result to the Participant. i. Selection, shipment and return Selected units shall be obtained either from the Applicant/Participant production line or a stocking point, and then delivered to the Laboratory. Following completion of the tests, the Participant shall arrange for the shipment of the unit. The Laboratory shall have the responsibility of un-crating, handling, testing and re-crating the unit for shipment. A contact person shall be designated by the Applicant/Participant to organise the shipment to the laboratory, the laboratory shall inform him when the testis completed. All transport fees shall be covered by the participant. The laboratory shall not engage any transport fees. The Participant has to notify Eurovent Certita Certification within four weeks after receiving the test report if he intends to recover the tested unit. If the participant fails to do so, Eurovent Certita Certification will order the laboratory to dispose of the units and invoice the participant the disposal fee. For AC1 units the participant can choose to recover all units at the end of the testing campaign. The Participant has to recover its units within four weeks after receiving the last test report. For AC2, AC3 and CC units the Participant has to recover its units within eight weeks after receiving the test report. For AC2 and AC3 programmes, a trial testing campaign for seasonal performaces for cooling and heating modes is organized during 2017 campaign following decisions taken from all compliance committee meetings held in 2016. (cf.Minutes from 27 September 2016) IV.3 Failure treatment a. Component failure If any functional component is inoperative, or the unit is damaged and cannot be repaired at the Laboratory, the unit is considered as a “component failure”. A new unit shall then be delivered within 2 weeks. b. Testing at Tol If the unit fails to start and operate continually for 30 min at Tol the Applicant/Participant has 2 weeks to choose from the following alternatives: Change Tol and ask for a second test on the same unit (SCOP to be recalculated) AC, OM-1-2017 Published January 2017 Page 10 of 32 Change Tol to the lowest fully tested outdoor temperature (-7°C for average climate, SCOP to be recalculated) Maintain Tol and ask for a second test on the same unit c. Failure to meet the required capacity ratio (variable capacity) For variable capacity units in case the tested capacity ratio fails to reach the required load ratio within 10% the laboratory should contact immediately the Applicant/Participant to acquire the information to test the closest for the steps on either side of the required heating load. If the manufacturer fails to provide the information the unit will be considered as a component failure. d. Testing of general performances For each test, a performance item fails when the difference between the declared value and the measurement differs by more than the acceptable tolerance (see relevant Rating Standard(s)). A test fails when one or more performance items fail. For each failed test, the Applicant/Participant has 4 weeks after notification of failure to choose between one of the following alternatives: Re-rate the products in accordance with the re-rating rules (see dedicated chapter below); Ask for a second test on the same unit; Ask for a second test on another unit of the same model selected by Eurovent Certita Certification. e. Penalty tests An additional unit will be selected for the next test campaign each time there is a deviation by more than the high tolerance (see relevant Rating Standard) on: efficiency and/or capacity; sound power level. Penalty tests following a qualifying procedure need to be validated before the certification is granted. f. Second test If the Applicant/Participant had shipped back the unit, the complete test shall be carried out. If the second test is performed on the same unit (without any modification on the unit, and not leaving the laboratory), the Applicant/Participant can choose to repeat only: All thermal and pressure measurements or All sound measurements Note: For a complete test, if the Part Load tests failed but not the Standard points, the second tests can be carried out only for the Part Load tests (Tbiv, one condition among conditions A to D, TOL) with/without auxiliary test. The Applicant/Participant can choose also to test all the points needed for SCOP/SEER calculation: Condition A AC, OM-1-2017 Published January 2017 Page 11 of 32 Condition B Condition C Condition D Bivalent point for Cooling mode Auxiliaries (Psb, Pto, Poff, Pck when relevant) IV.4 Repeated failures along the test campaigns This paragraph refers to paragraph V.6 of the Certification Manual. The rules regarding Mean Value of Failure (MVF) are described in APPENDIX C. V. RE-RATING RULES For each failed test, the model shall be re-rated according to the following rules: V.1 Rerating of Tol If Tol has been changed for second tests and second measurement passed, Tol is rerated at changed value. If during second test, second measurement has also failed, Tol will be rerated at the tested point with the lowest outdoor temperature (-7°C for average climate). V.2 Seasonal efficiency points: rerating of design load Whenever the test at extreme/bivalent condition shows a deviation on capacity larger than the allowed tolerance, the design load is rerated according to the measured deviation for all models in the same basic model group. V.3 Rerating of auxiliary power consumption Whenever the test on auxiliary power consumption shows a deviation larger than the allowed tolerance, the auxiliary power consumption is rerated according to the measured deviation for all models in the same basic model group. Available also for the optional Psb in Heating. V.4 Rerating when capacity and/or efficiency fails In case of failure on capacity and efficiency, then capacity, efficiency and power input of the tested model shall be rerated to the measured values. Deviation on capacity shall be applied to all models in the same basic model group (BMG). Deviation on efficiency shall be applied to all models in the same BMG. Power input shall be recalculated for all models in the same BMG. In case of failure on capacity only or efficiency only, the power input shall also be recalculated for all models in the same basic model group. AC, OM-1-2017 Published January 2017 Page 12 of 32 Table 2: Example of rerating when efficiency or capacity only fails Complete tests : Partial tests : (30% of the selected units - minimum one unit) (1 point in cooling, 1 point in heating) Cooling : EER Conditions A EER Passed / T° Deviation Failed Rerate SEER with 35 -2% P EER A,declared B 30 C 25 D 20 -12% F Conditions T° Deviation A 35 EER B,declared -12% B 30 EER C,measured C 25 EER D,delared -12% D 20 EER Conditions A B C D -2% Rerate SEER with EER A,declared EER B,declared -12% -12% F EER C,measured EER D,delared -12% EER Passed / T° Deviation Failed Rerate SEER with 35 -12% F EER A, measured 30 25 20 Passed / Failed P EER B, declared EER C, declared EER D, declared Conditions T° Deviation A 35 -12% B C D 30 25 20 Passed / Failed F Rerate SEER with EER A, measured EER B, declared EER C, declared EER D, declared EER Conditions A B T° Deviation 35 -11% 30 C 25 D Other points : 20 -12% Passed / Failed Rerate SEER with F EER A, measured EER B,declared -12% F EER C, measured EER D,delared -12% Power consumption at off mode, standby mode, thermostat off mode and crankcase heater mode Power Passed / consumption Deviation Failed Rerate SEER with P off P P off,declared P P sb P sb,declared P to P ck 12% F P to, measured P ck,declared AC, OM-1-2017 Published January 2017 Page 13 of 32 Heating COP COP Passed / Deviation Failed Rerate SCOP with Conditions T° E Tol (unit running at TOL) P F Tbiv -11% F A -7 B 2 C 7 D 12 -12% F Rerate SCOP with T° TOL declared E Tol TOL declared COP tbiv,measured F Tbiv COP A,declared -12% A -7 COP tbiv,declared COP A,declared 12% COP B,measured B 2 COP C,declared -12% C 7 COP C,declared -12% COP D,declared -12% D 12 COP D,declared -12% COP Deviation Passed / Failed Conditions -12% F COP B,measured COP Passed / Deviation Failed Rerate SCOP with Conditions T° E Tol (unit running at TOL) P F (-7°) Tbiv -11% A -7 B 2 C D Deviation Passed / Failed Rerate SCOP with Conditions T° TOL declared E Tol F COP tbiv,measured F Tbiv -11% F COP A,declared -11% A -7 COP A,declared -12% F COP B,measured B 2 COP B,declared 7 COP C,declared -12% C 7 COP C,declared 12 COP C,declared -12% D 12 COP D,declared TOL declared -11% F COP tbiv,measured COP COP Conditions T° E Tol F Tbiv Passed / Deviation Failed Rerate SCOP with (not running at TOL) F Tol P COP tbiv,declared -7 rerated COP A,declared P B 2 COP B,declared C 7 COP C,declared D 12 COP D,declared Pdesignh AC, OM-1-2017 Published January 2017 Page 14 of 32 Passed / Deviation Failed Rerate Pdesignh Ph Tbiv -12% F Pdesignh Ph Tbiv, measured Pdesignh,declared -12% The rerated P designh is used to calculate the rerated SCOP.

When all points for SCOP/SEER are tested, Eurovent Certita will recalculate the seasonal efficiency using: - The declared value of part load, if the result is passed - The measured value, if the resul is failed (out of tolerance) Whenever a measurement at a part-load condition selected by Eurovent Certita Certification shows a deviation on EER or COP larger than the allowed tolerance, the § V.4 shall be applied on all the other part load EER (respectively COP) and then, SEER and SCOP will be recalculated by Eurovent Certita Certification, to be rerated. Whenever the test on auxiliary power consumption or/and the test on capacity at extreme condition/bivalentcondition shows a deviation larger than the allowed tolerance the value of SCOP/SEER should be recalculated. In case of recalculation of the SEER or SCOP, the annual energy consumption should be recalculated for the tested unit. In case of recalculation of SEER or SCOP and annual energy consumption for the tested model: - the deviation on SEER or SCOP shall be applied to all models in the same basic model group (BMG), AC, OM-1-2017 Published January 2017 Page 15 of 32 - the deviation on annual energy consumption shall be applied to all models in the same basic model group (BMG). - the deviation of the tested auxiliary power consumptions shall be applied to all models in the same basic model group (BMG).

If the result exceeds the claimed value by the tolerance or more, the tested model shall be re-rated in accordance with the test result. In addition, the whole product family of the failed model shall be re-rated to the tested deviation value minus 2 dB(A).

Then: If the deviation of CcpLRcontmin is within the tolerance, declared CcpLRcontmin is validated. Otherwise, CcpLRcontmin is rerated according the measured deviation of Ccp But, if the rerated CcpLRcontmin is below 1, the rerated CcpLRcontmin becomes 1 (default value). AC, OM-1-2017 Published January 2017 Page 16 of 32 If measure of LRcontmin is failed, LRcontmin becomes 0.4 (default value) and CcpLRcontmin is rerated to 1. The performance values of all other models in the same BMG shall be re-rated by the deviation found with the tested model or the default values when applicable. V.8 Possible uprating At the moment of the annual declaration, an uprating of performances from a same BMG is allowed: - If the deviation of tested unit (in the BMG) is above inversed tolerance Or if: - Units are not already tested and rerated and - Units of the BMG, if we received the proof (=report) that the tested unit was very underrated VI.

Has the laboratory to apply a specific start-up procedure to achieve the rated capacities? (No test will be performed without answer to this question.) YES | 4. NO Start-up procedure Note: Once frequencies and expansion valves opening are fixed, no further changes will be allowed until test completion. If answer to clause 3 is YES, a detailed start-up procedure shall be attached. VERY IMPORTANT: Attached start-up proceduret shall be drafted with enough details to ensure the laboratory personal will be able to set the unit at the first try. In particular, special care shall be given to the following items: Initial state of the following items (before starting the configuration): wired/remote controller model status (ON or OFF) appliance status (ON or OFF) mode (cooling, heating, ventilation, auto, etc.) room temperature range requirements (if yes, specify clearly), Temperature requirements cannot be closer than ± 2 K from the rating conditions. In addition: Indicate if the remote controller shall be configured with the indoor unit(s) receiving or not the signals from the remote controller. When entering TEST MODE, indicate if the appliance will give a feedback (acoustic or visible) to acknowledge the setting. Indicate the louver position, and the method to reach it. A drawing may be useful. For multisplit systems, please clearly specify if the starting procedure has to be performed for all indoor units at the same time, or in which order. 5. Time before beginning of the measurement period Please note that the measurement period will begin 60 minutes (heating mode) or 70 min (heating mode) after starting the unit. This means that the unit shall be running in TEST MODE by that time. 6. Default start up procedure When there are no details on start-up supplied with the units, the normal start-up procedure used by the laboratory will be as follows: COOLING CAPACITY TESTING AND SOUND POWER DETERMINATION Configuration of the remote controller: Mode: Cooling mode* AC, OM-1-2017 Published January 2017 Page 26 of 32 Temperature set: Minimum allowed by remote controller without including special modes like LOW temperature function. Fan speed: Maximum allowed by remote controller without including special modes like TURBO mode. Louver: Maximum airflow position** HEATING CAPACITY TESTING Configuration of the remote controller: Mode: Heating mode* Temperature set: Maximum allowed by remote controller without including special modes like HIGH temperature function. Fan speed: Maximum allowed by remote controller without including special modes like TURBO mode. Louver: Maximum airflow position** * Any other functions, like eco mode, display backlighting, ionizer, etc will be kept as default after inserting the batteries in the remote controller or switching the power on for wired remote controllers. **The louver position for maximum airflow is only checked visually so there is a risk not to exactly be in the maximum airflow position.

General Mean Value of Failure (MVF) is equal, for each manufacturer and for each considered characteristic, to the ratio between the total number of measurements above the “High deviation limit” (see table below) and the total performed measurements in the considered years. MHFV Mean High FailureValue Number of measurements failed with high deviation Number of measurements performed Number of considered years Number of considered years When there is a second test on a unit, then the first measurements are not taken into account. A manufacturer is expelled from the Eurovent Certified Performance Programme for one year if, for at least one considered characteristic, the mean value of MVF is higher than the limit z. Current Failure treatment (re-rating and additional tests) still applies above the “Eurovent AC tolerance” (see IV.3).

Implementation & newcomers At the end of 2009 test campaign, Eurovent Certita Certification takes into consideration the last two test campaign data of each manufacturer. At the end of 2010 test campaign and at the end of each following year, Eurovent Certita Certification takes into consideration the last three test campaign data of each manufacturer. Data of new participants will be first taken into consideration after two test campaigns (including qualifying tests). C.III. Notification of being suspended A participant who is going to be suspended will receive a notification from Eurovent Certita Certification, with a possible additional selected unit to be tested. The purpose of this additional test is to give the participant the opportunity to comply with the limits. The response to Eurovent Certita Certification with confirmation of request for additional testing has to be done within 30 days after this notification, and the unit has to be delivered within 45 days after this notification. OM-1-2017 Published January 2017 Page 30 of 32 A manufacturer that leaves the programme because he has been expelled should complete the qualifying procedure within the year for which he has been expelled in order to rejoin for the next year. He becomes a newcomer. AC, OM-1-2017 Published January 2017 Page 31 of 32 APPENDIX D. ECO-DESIGN AND ENERGY LABELLING Commission Regulation (EU) No 206/2012 implementing Directive 2009/125/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council with regard to ecodesign requirements for air conditioners and comfort fans gives requirements for all air conditioners with the cooling capacity under 12 kW (AC1) introduced on the European market after 1 January 2013. The Directive defines maximum sound power levels and energy efficiency as given in the following tables. Commission Regulation(EU) No 626/2011 supplementing Directive 2010/30/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council with regard to energy labelling of air conditioners makes mandatory energy labelling of all air conditioners with the cooling capacity under 12 kW (AC1) introduced on the European market after the 1st January 2013. The Directive defines for each function the energy class going from A++ (more efficient) to G (less efficient). The classification is given in the following table. Table 5: Energy Classification for Conditioners except double ducts and single ducts Energy Efficiency Class A+++ A++ A+ A B C D E F G SEER SEER ≥ 8.50 6.10 ≤ SEER < 8.50 5.60 ≤ SEER < 6.10 5.10 ≤ SEER < 5.60 4.60 ≤ SEER < 5.10 4.10 ≤ SEER < 4.60 3.60 ≤ SEER < 4.10 3.10 ≤ SEER < 3.60 2.60 ≤ SEER < 3.10 SEER < 2.60 SCOP SCOP ≥ 5.10 4.60 ≤ SCOP < 5.10 4.00 ≤SCOP < 4.60 3.40 ≤ SCOP < 4.00 3.10 ≤ SCOP < 3.40 2.80 ≤ SCOP < 3.10 2.50 ≤ SCOP < 2.80 2.20 ≤ SCOP < 2.50 1.90 ≤ SCOP < 2.20 SCOP < 1.90 OM-1-2017 Published January 2017 Page 32 of 32
