scope:
This part of IEC 62885 is applicable to measurements of the performance of cordless dry vacuum cleaners for household use or under conditions similar to those in households. The results obtained under this document are intended to be comparable to the results obtained under IEC 62885-2 for mains-connected vacuums.
The purpose of this document is to specify essential performance characteristics of cordless dry vacuum cleaners which are of interest to users and to describe methods for measuring these characteristics.
NOTE 1 Owing to the influence of environmental conditions, variations in time, origin of test materials and proficiency of the operator, most of the described test methods give more reliable results when applied to comparative testing of a number of appliances at the same time, in the same laboratory and by the same operator.
NOTE 2 This document is not intended for mains-operated vacuum cleaners or cleaning robots.
NOTE 3 Cordless handheld vacuums are excluded, except for 5.7.2 and 5.8.
For safety requirements, reference is made to IEC 60335-1 and IEC 60335-2-2.
A recommendation on information for the consumer at the point of sale is given in Annex B of IEC 62885-2.
