IEC 60675:2018 pdf download.Household electric direct-acting room heaters – Methods for measuring performance
1 Scope
This standard applies to electric direct-acting room heaters. They may be portable, stationary, fixed, or built-in. It does not apply to: – thermal-storage room heaters (IEC 60531 ); – heating appliances incorporated in the building structure; – central heating systems; – heaters connected to an air duct; – wall-paper, carpets or drapes incorporating flexible heating elements. This standard defines the main performance characteristics of direct-acting room heaters and specifies methods for measuring these characteristics, for the information of users. This standard does not specify values for performance characteristics. NOTE – This standard does not deal with: – safety requirements (IEC 60335-2-30); – acoustical noise of fan heaters (IEC 60704-2-2).

3 Definitions
For the purposes of this standard, the following definitions apply: 3.1 direct-acting room heater appliance which converts electrical energy into heat after a demand for heat has arisen in a room and transfers this heat to the room without delay NOTE – In this standard, a direct-acting room heater is referred to as a heater.3.2 panel heater heater in which the temperature rise of all surfaces in contact with the circulating air does not exceed 75 K in normal use NOTE 1 – Panel heaters may be oil filled. NOTE 2 – Panel heaters may be in column form. 3.3 convector heater heater in which the temperature rise of at least one non-visible part in contact with the circulating air exceeds 75 K in normal use. The air is discharged through one or more outlets by natural convection NOTE – “Non-visible part” means that the part cannot be seen from a point situated 2 m in front of the heater and 1 ,2 m above the floor when the heater is installed. 3.4 fan heater heater in which the movement of air through it is accelerated by a fan 3.5 radiant heater heater in which the temperature rise of at least one visible surface exceeds 75 K in normal use NOTE – The visible surface may be seen through solid material which is transparent to heat radiation. Materials such as quartz glass are considered to be transparent to heat radiation, while ordinary glass is not. 3.6 visibly glowing radiant heater radiant heater in which the heating element is visible from the outside of the heater and has a temperature of at least 650 °C in normal use 3.7 ambient temperature thermostat thermostat, sensitive to the room temperature and adjustable by the user, with at least the sensing part incorporated in the heater 3.8 programmer control for regulating the room temperature according to a programme preset by the user and which is incorporated in the heater 3.9 set-back device device which allows the room temperature to be maintained at a lower value than the pre-set temperature without changing the setting of the ambient temperature thermostat 3.1 0 frost protection means means which allows the room temperature to be maintained at a value of 7 °C ± 3 °C NOTE – The means may be a particular setting of the ambient temperature thermostat. 3.1 1 rated power input power input assigned to the heater by the manufacturer
