IEC 60704-2-13:2011 PDF Download

Specifically, the assessment of airborne acoustical noise for range hoods used in homes and other comparable contexts is covered by the standard IEC 60704-2-13:2011. It covers all accessories and component parts for range hoods that filter or exhaust air from a room. Additionally, it covers range hoods that have an exterior fan, which may be mounted within or outside the room where the range hood is located. 

The purpose of this standard is to be used in combination with the third version of IEC 60704-1 (2010). To establish the test code expressly for range hoods, it adds to or changes the pertinent provisions in IEC 60704-1. Unless specifically indicated otherwise, a subclause from Part 1 that is not addressed in Parts 2–13 is still applicable.

In order to distinguish them from those in Part 1, the standard also contains additional subclauses, tables, figures, and annexes that are numbered differently. These updates offer additional guidelines and demands for evaluating range hoods for airborne acoustical noise. It is crucial to refer to both IEC 60704-2-13:2011 and IEC 60704-1:2010 in order to comprehend and put into practice the range hood testing procedures.
