Industry supervision is not perfect and standardized. Companies can use energy efficiency to save costs. In recent years, in the household appliances market such as rice cookers and microwave ovens, various brands of products have repeatedly become 'hit on the reef' on energy efficiency issues. With consumers’ demands for green energy conservation Ascension, energy efficiency management of household appliances has become more and more important.
According to the former State Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine, the National Standardization Administration of the People's Republic of China on May 12, 2017 issued the national standard announcement No. 11 of 2017, and GB 12021.6-2017 "Electric Cooker Energy Efficiency Limit Value and Energy Efficiency Rating" will be held in 2018. On June 1 of this year, the energy efficiency index of rice cooker products produced from the date of implementation must comply with the requirements of the new energy efficiency standards and paste energy efficiency labels before they can be put on the market.
In the new rice cooker energy efficiency standards, the rice cooker energy efficiency rating is still 5, of which the highest energy efficiency in the 1st level, the product category is still divided by the power segment, but the classification from the original standard 5 files to 4 files, respectively 400W And below the power section rice cooker, 400~600W power section rice cooker, 600~1000W power section rice cooker and 1000~2000W power section rice cooker.
The new version of the rice cooker energy efficiency standard specifically incorporates the electromagnetic induction IH rice cooker into the standard system. The applicable range of the new rice cooker energy efficiency standard is: Working under normal pressure environment, heating by electric heating element or electromagnetic induction, rated power is not More than 2000W rice cooker.
It is understood that the current energy efficiency standard for rice cookers GB 12021.6-2008 "Limits and Energy Efficiency Levels for Automatic Cooker Energy Efficiency" is limited by the development of products and technologies at the time of its development. There is no energy efficiency compensation factor. If current energy efficiency standards are used for testing, The energy efficiency value of the IH rice cooker is low compared to the actual value. The result is not reasonable. Therefore, the IH rice cookers currently on the market are not labeled with energy efficiency. Under the current energy efficiency standards, IH rice cookers and other new products have remained for a long time. The status of compliance is not conducive to industry norm and sustainable development.
The inclusion of IH rice cookers in the new rice cooker energy efficiency standards is a consensus that has long been reached in the industry. Some business leaders and relevant experts in testing and certification agencies have clearly pointed out that the application of new heating methods and pots with thick pots make rice taste more Good. Compared with ordinary rice cookers, IH products can greatly improve the nutrition and taste of rice, and popularize the new technology and products of rice cookers so that more families can use the same rice to eat better. The nutritious rice is also conducive to the transformation and upgrading of the rice cooker industry. New technologies and new products require standard follow-up and scientific evaluation at the energy efficiency level. 'This standard revision incorporates the IH rice cooker, so the energy efficiency standards and Promoting the upgrading of consumption is an improvement. ' Wang Lei, vice chairman of the China Household Electrical Appliances Association said.
In addition, the new version of the rice cooker energy efficiency standards also comprehensively consider the energy efficiency and performance indicators, optimize the thermal efficiency calculation formula, can better reflect the real energy efficiency level of the rice cooker.
Industry experts pointed out that the new version of the energy efficiency standard for rice cookers has significant changes in terms of product range, measurement methods, and energy efficiency indicators. The new standard evaluation method is more reasonable and can better achieve the goal of energy conservation and environmental protection. Enterprises should understand as soon as possible. The requirements of relevant energy efficiency standards, preparations for energy efficiency filing in advance.
