5 Measurement procedure
5.1 General approach
According to the capacity of the unit and the volume of its tank, defined by the volumic power density
(VPD) in W/l, the heating time can dramatically change. The goal is to perform the acoustic measurement
when the water tank temperature reaches the target hot water temperature T . This temperature shall
hw
only be measured by small draw-offs.
8
---------------------- Page: 10 ----------------------
SIST EN 12102-2:2019
EN 12102-2:2019 (E)
Previous studies showed that the noise generated by units is unsteady compared to other HVAC devices.
This is why a longer sound pressure averaging of 3 min is required.
For units with small VPD, the water tank temperature increases slowly and will not dramatically change
during the time necessary to perform acoustic measurement. Fifteen minutes are given to perform this
task, allowing some time-consuming processes of the standards (e.g. increase the number of microphone
positions).
For units with large VPD, the water tank temperature increases quickly. The sound power level shall be
continuously measured during the water tank heating, with several small draw-offs. Then the acoustic
values corresponding to the target water tank temperature T shall be deduced from the evolution of
hw
temperature versus time.
The measurement procedure for heat pump water heaters with a direct heat exchanger between the
sanitary cold water and the refrigerant is given in Annex B.
5.2 Target hot water temperature T
hw
The target hot water temperatures T at which the measurement shall be done are defined in Annex C.
hw
Reaching T is checked by small draw-offs, as specified in 5.5.
hw
For units with VPD ≤ 10 W/l, the tolerance on T is ± 1,5 K.
hw
For units with VPD > 10 W/l, there is no tolerance on T , because it is a target temperature used for
hw
time calculation.

The measurement procedure depends on the VPD value:
— For units with a VPD ≤ 10 W/l, see 5.6;
— For units with a VPD > 10 W/l, see 5.7.
5.4 Water tank filling
The tank shall be fully filled with water at the temperature given in Table 3. The heat pump is then
switched on.

If the measurement is performed at more than one target hot water temperature T during a single

heating-up, the initial temperature requirement only applies to the lowest target hot water temperature.
The tank is considered to be filled at the required temperature when the temperatures at the outlet and
inlet fulfil the relation given in Formula (2).

5.5 Water outlet temperature measurement
The water outlet temperature T is measured at the storage tank outlet, by doing small draw-offs of the
wo
water.
They shall be done according to the following procedure:
1) Tap water with a flow rate between 2,8 and 3,2 l/min during 25 to 35 s (in order to purge and to
stabilize the temperature probe),
2) Then measure the temperature for 10 s with a flow rate between 2,8 and 3,2 l/min. The temperature
measurement sampling shall be done with at least 1 value every 2 s. The temperature is the average
of the measurements over these 10 s.
The water temperatures are measured in the centre of the flow, as close as possible to the appliance, as
shown in Figure 1.

2 draw-off
Figure 1 — Distance for the temperature measurement
The difference between the lowest and highest temperature shall not exceed 0,15 K.
In order to compensate the draw-offs, the tank shall be filled with water at temperature as defined in 5.4.
NOTE For practical reasons, it is possible to use another way to follow the water tank inner temperature. In
this case, only draw off measurements are considered.
5.6 Method for units with VPD ≤ 10 W/l
5.6.1 Heat pump operation
When the storage tank is full of water at the temperature specified in Table 3, the acoustic measurement
shall begin as soon as the two following conditions are achieved:
— T is within the target hot water temperature range outlet T ;
wo hw
— continuous run of the compressor for a minimum of 30 min immediately before the acoustic
measurement; otherwise, circulate a volume of V at the temperature specified in Table 3 while
tank
the unit is still running and start the measurement when the target temperature is reached.
5.6.2 Acoustic measurement
The sound measurement of the unit shall start as soon as the target temperature is reached.
To avoid a significant change of the T during measurement process, the total duration of the sound
wo
measurement shall not be longer than 15 min.
Due to the non-steady-state operation of the heat pump water heater resulting in variability of sound
level, the averaging time shall be 3 min.
NOTE This averaging can be arranged as the average of several measurements over shorter periods. For
example, a unitary measurement time of 30 s will require the average of 6 acquisitions.

---------------------- Page: 13 ----------------------
SIST EN 12102-2:2019
EN 12102-2:2019 (E)
At the end of the acoustic measurement, T shall be measured again for information. The acoustic
wo
measurement shall be reported with the average value of the temperatures measured just before and
after the acoustic measurement.
5.7 Method for units with VPD > 10 W/l
The method consists in the several time-stamped measurements of T throughout the water tank
wo
heating and in a continuous acoustic measurement when this temperature is in the vicinity of the target
temperature T .
hw
Below the target temperature T , the period of time-stamped T , expressed as temperature

measurement period, t , shall be in accordance with Table 4.

Any acoustic measurement done during a draw-off shall not be used due to the water flow noise.
The compressor shall run for at least 30 min immediately before the acoustic measurement. If the target
temperature is reached before this time period, the test procedure is immediately restarted without the
30 min requirement. The time of compressor run before the begining of the test shall be stated in the test
report.
The acoustic measurement shall be done with continuous sequential acquisitions of 1 min.
From the beginning of the heating period, determine several T according to 5.5 and to Table 4.

After the second measurement of T , the theoretical time for reaching the target temperature T is

5 Measurement procedure
5.1 General approach
According to the power of the unit and the volume of its tank, defined by the volumic power density
(VPD) in W/l, the heating time can dramatically change. The goal is to perform the acoustic
measurement when the water tank temperature reaches the target water temperature T , usually 45°.
hw
But this temperature shall only be measured by small draw-offs, thus preventing its continuous
monitoring.
Previous studies showed that the noise generated by units is unsteady compared to other HVAC
devices. This is why a longer sound pressure averaging of 3 min is required.
For units with low VPD, the water tank temperature increases slowly and will not dramatically change
during the time necessary to perform acoustic measurement. Fifteen minutes are given to perform this
task, allowing some time-consuming processes of the standards (e.g. increase the number of
microphone positions).
For units with higher VPD, the water tank temperature increases quickly. The sound power level shall
be continuously measured during the water tank heating, with several small draw-offs. Then the
acoustic values corresponding to the water tank temperature of T (usually 45 °C) shall be deduced
hw
from the evolution of temperature versus time.
The measurement procedure for heat pump water heaters with a direct heat exchanger between the
sanitary cold water and the refrigerant is given in Annex B.
5.2 Target water temperature
The target water temperature T is the temperature of the water in the top of the tank, at which the
hw
sound power level value has to be declared.
The target water temperature T is 45 °C for units with a set point > 50 °C, or [set point - 5] °C
hw
otherwise.
For units with VPD ≤ 10, the target water temperature T has a tolerance of ± 1K.
hw
For units with VPD > 10, the target water temperature T has no tolerance because it is a target
hw
temperature used for time calculation.
5.3 Volumic power density (VPD)
The VPD is defined in Formula (1) and expressed in W/l.
VPD = P * 1000 / V (1)
rated tank
where
V is the declared volume of water tank (litres);
tank
Prated is the declared heating capacity (kW).
The measurement procedure depends on the VPD value:
— For units with a VPD ≤ 10, see 5.6;
— For units with a VPD > 10, see 5.7.
5.4 Water tank filling
The unit being stopped, the tank shall be fully filled with water at the temperature given in Table 3.

The tank is considered to be filled at the correct temperature when the temperatures at the outlet and
inlet fulfil the relation given in Formula (2).
|T – T | < 1K (2)

5.5 Water outlet temperature measurement
The water outlet temperature T is measured at the storage tank outlet by using small draw-offs of the
wo
water.
They shall be done according to the following procedure:
1) Tap water with a flow between 2,8 and 3,2 l/min during 25 to 35 s (in order to purge and to
stabilize the temperature probe),
2) Then measure the temperature during 10 s with a flow between 2,8 and 3,2 l/min. The temperature
measurement sampling shall be done with at least 1 value every 2 s. The temperature is the average
of the measurements over these 10 s.
The water temperatures are measured in the centre of the flow, as close as possible to the appliance, as
shown in Figure 1.

The difference between lowest and highest temperature shall not exceed 0,15 K.
In order to compensate the draw-offs, the tank shall be filled with water at temperature as defined
in 5.4.
NOTE For practical reasons, it is possible to use another way to follow the water tank inner temperature. In
this case, only draw off measurements are considered.
5.6 Method for units with VPD ≤ 10
5.6.1 Heat pump operation
When the storage tank is full of water at the temperature, as defined in Table 3, the acoustic
measurement shall begin as soon as both following conditions are achieved:
— water outlet temperature T is within the target water temperature range outlet T ;
wo hw
— continuous run of the compressor for a minimum of 30 min immediately before the acoustic
measurement; otherwise, circulate a volume of V at the temperature defined in Table 3, while
tank
the unit is still running and start the measurement when the target temperature is reached.

prEN 12102-2:2017 (E)
5.6.2 Acoustic measurement
The sound pressure level measurement of the unit shall start as soon as the target temperature is
reached.
To avoid a significant change of the T during measurement process, the total duration of the sound
wo
level measurement shall not be longer than 15 min.
Due to the non-steady-state operation of the heat pump water heater resulting in variability of sound
level, the averaging time shall be 3 min.
NOTE This averaging can be arranged as the average of several measurements over shorter period. For
example, a standard measurement time of 30 s will require the average of 6 acquisitions.
At the end of the acoustic measurement, the T shall be measured again for information. The acoustic
wo
measurement shall be reported with the average of the temperatures measured just before and after
the acoustic measurement.
5.7 Method for units with VPD > 10
The method consists in the several time-stamped measurements of T throughout the water tank
wo
heating and a continuous acoustic measurement when this temperature is in the vicinity of the target
temperature T .
hw
Below the target temperature T , the period of time-stamped T , expressed as temperature
hw wo
measurement period, TMP, shall be in accordance with Table 4.

Any acoustic measurement done during a draw-off shall not be used due to the water flow noise.
The compressor shall run for at least 30 min immediately before the acoustic measurement. If this
condition cannot be satisfied, the test is immediately restarted without this requirement. The time of
compressor run before the test start shall be mentioned in the test report.
A continuous run of the compressor for a minimum of 30 min immediately should be satisfied before
the acoustic measurement. If this is not satisfied, the test shall be immediately restarted without this
requirement.
The acoustic measurement shall be done with continuous sequential acquisitions of 1 min.
From the beginning of the heating period, determine several Two according to 5.5 and to Table 4.
After the second T measurement, calculate by linear regression the estimated time at which the target
wo
T will be reached. This estimation of time is refined after each new T measurement.
hw wo
When the period between the time of the current T measurement and the theoretical time of T is
wo hw
comprised between 2 × TMP and TMP , then the acoustic measurement shall be immediately
min min
started. This requirement avoids any draw-off during the acoustic measurement.
After the estimated time of T , stop the acoustic measurement and perform another T measurement,
hw wo
which shall be between TMP and TMP after the theoretical time of T given at the last valid T
min max hw wo
measurement. If the unit stops before this time, the T shall be immediately determined.
wo
11
---------------------- Page: 13 ----------------------
oSIST prEN 12102-2:2018
prEN 12102-2:2017 (E)
The exact time corresponding to the T without tolerance is calculated by linear regression from the
hw
time-stamped T just before and after. The sound power level is determined by averaging the sound
wo
power level on three minutes:
— measurement at the exact time;
— measurement at the minute before;
— measurement at the minute after.
An example of measurement process for units with VPD > 10 is given in Annex C.
5.8 Frosting
In case of a defrosting cycle, the acoustic measurement shall start after the duration corresponding to
the defrost cycle and the first 10 min after the termination of this defrost cycle when the heat pump is
operating in the heating mode (Interval D as defined in EN 16147).
5.9 Measurement of non-acoustic parameters
The measurement of temperatures and static pressures to be reported shall start at the time of the last
draw-off before acoustic measurement and stop at the following draw-off.
5.10 Volume air flow rate and available external static pressure
5.10.1 Non-ducted units
For non-ducted units (configurations A, F, G, H), no air volume flow rate measurement is required.
5.10.2 Ducted units
The air volume flow rate shall be measured according to EN ISO 5801 or any other method to measure
the air flow with an equal of higher precision method.
The external available pressure shall be measured during the acoustic test.
If the airflow measurement does not produce any additional noise, it may be performed during the
acoustic measurement. Otherwise, the volume airflow rate shall be determined after the test for the
same external available pressure as measured during the acoustic test.
5.11 Rotation speed
For units that include one or several fans, the rotation speed of the fan(s) should be measured.

1 Scope
This European Standard specifies methods for testing the sound power level for water heating energy
efficiency of air/water, brine/water, water/water and direct exchange/water heat pump water heaters
and heat pump combination heaters with electrically driven compressors and connected to or including
a domestic hot water storage tank for domestic hot water production.
This European Standard comprises only the testing procedure for the domestic hot water production of
the heat pump system.
NOTE 1 Testing procedures for simultaneous operation for domestic hot water production and space heating
are not treated in this standard. Simultaneous means that domestic hot water production and space heating
generation occur at the same time and may interact.
NOTE 2 For space heating functions, the requirements are given in prEN 12102–1:2015.
This European Standard only applies to water heaters which are supplied in a package of heat pump
and storage tank. In the case of water heaters consisting of several parts with refrigerant connections,
this European Standard applies only to those designed and supplied as a complete package.
This European Standard does not specify requirements of the quality of the used water.

5.1 Heating factor
The heating factor H is defined in Formula (1).
f
H = 60 *1.163 * 2 * V / (P * 1000) (2)
f tank rated
where
V is the declared volume of water tank (litres);
tank
P is the declared heating capacity (kW).
rated
The measurement procedure depends on the heating factor H , according to the P and the unit tank
f rated
size:
— If H > 15, method 1 applies;
f
— If H ≤ 15, method 2 applies.
f
18
---------------------- Page: 20 ----------------------
oSIST prEN 12102-2:2016
prEN 12102-2:2016 (E)
Two measurement procedures are described. The heating factor H is a recommendation to choose the
f
measurement procedures. Even if H is below 15, the laboratory may use method 1 if the water outlet
f
temperature does not reach more than target temperature + 2 K within maximum measurement
duration of 15 min.
5.2 Target water temperature
The target water temperature T is defined by the lowest temperature between:
hw
— 45 °C (±1°C) and
— set point - 5°C (±1 °C)
for the declared set-point without additional back-up according to installation and operating
instructions.
5.3 Method 1
5.3.1 Tank filling
The tank shall be fully filled with water temperature between 10 °C and the target water outlet
temperature minus 5 K, so that the heat pump can start in these conditions.
Once the storage tank is filled, the unit can be started.
5.3.2 Heat pump operation
The target water temperature T is measured by small draw-offs at the outlet, using the procedure
hw
described in 5.3.3.
The acoustic measurement shall be started when both conditions are achieved:
— water outlet temperature within the target water outlet T tolerances;
hw
— the unit shall continuously run a minimum of 60 min just before the acoustic measurement.
5.3.3 Water outlet temperature measurement
The water outlet temperature is measured at the unit outlet by using small draw-offs of the water.
They shall be done according to the following procedure:
1) Tap some water with a flow between 2,8 and 3,2 l/min during 25 to 35 s (in order to purge and to
stabilize the temperature probe),
2) Then measure the temperature during 10 s with a flow between 2,8 and 3,2 l/min. The temperature
is the average of the measurements over these 10 s.
The temperature measurement sampling shall be done with at least 1 value per second.
In order to compensate the draw-offs, the tank shall be filled with water at temperature as defined in
5.3.1.
5.3.4 Acoustic measurement
The sound pressure level measurement of the unit shall start as soon as the target temperature is
reached.
To avoid a significant change of the T , the total duration of the sound level measurement shall not be
hw
longer than 15 min.
19
---------------------- Page: 21 ----------------------
oSIST prEN 12102-2:2016
prEN 12102-2:2016 (E)
Due to the variability of the sound level for heat pump water heater, the minimum averaging time shall
be at least 3 min.
NOTE This averaging can be arranged as the average of several measurements over shorter period. For
example, a standard measurement time of 30 s will require 6 acquisitions.
At the end of acoustic measurement, the water outlet temperature shall be measured again for
information.
5.3.5 Frosting
In case of a defrosting cycle, a delay of 10 min shall be observed before starting acoustic measurements.
If the defrosting cycle occurs when the outlet water temperature is within the tolerance of target, it is
allowed to partially renew the tank with colder water to restart the procedure without waiting for
60 min.
After acoustic measurements, the unit shall run for at least 10 min without defrosting cycle. Otherwise,
the procedure shall be started again, renewing the tank with colder water to restart the procedure
without waiting for 60 min.
5.4 Method 2
5.4.1 General
Fill the tank with water at a temperature between 10 °C and 20 °C and start the unit for start-up
sequence according to the specifications of the manufacturer, or at least for 15 min.
Then, circulate water at temperature T = T - 1 K (±1 K) within the range given in Table 5 (T is the
wi hw wi
water temperature at the inlet of the tank).
The circulating water flow shall be at least 4 times the water tank volume per hour, to ensure at least a
full renew each 15 min. The upper limit shall be 8 times the water tank volume per hour, as long as the
noise generated by the water circulation is lower enough to avoid influence on the acoustic
measurement.
A preliminary test shall be done: first, circulate water with a water flow of 8 (±0,5) water tank volumes
per hour (l/min). Determine the sound power level generated by the circulating water, with the unit
switched off. Then run the unit, and determine its sound power level. Check that the sound power level
with unit “on” is 6 dB higher than for unit “off” for the overall dB(A) value. If not, reduce the water flow
until the criterion is fulfilled, but not lower than 4 water tank volumes per hour (l/min).
For the acoustic measurement, the background noise shall be the sound pressure level measured when
the unit is off and the water circulates.
The water temperature at the outlet T shall also be continuously measured.
wo
The compressor shall continuously run in this condition during 1 h just before acoustic measurements.
The sound power level shall then be determined, without duration restriction.
5.4.2 Frosting
In case of a defrosting cycle, a delay of 10 min shall be observed before starting acoustic measurements.
After acoustic measurements, the unit shall run for at least 10 min without defrosting cycle. Otherwise,
the procedure shall be started again, without waiting for 60 min.
5.5 Volume air flow and available pressure
5.5.1 Non-ducted units
For non-ducted units (configurations A, F, G, H), no air volume flow measurement is required.
20
---------------------- Page: 22 ----------------------
oSIST prEN 12102-2:2016
prEN 12102-2:2016 (E)
5.5.2 Ducted units
The volume air flow shall be measured according to EN ISO 5801.
As no device can be inserted into the duct(s) during the acoustic measurement of outdoor noise (④ or
⑤), the available pressure cannot be controlled during the test but this pressure shall be measured.
The air volume flow is then determined (before or after the acoustic measurement), by inserting an air
flow measuring device and using, if necessary, an additional fan to compensate the measuring device
pressure drop.
5.6 Rotation speed
For units which include one or several fans, the rotation speed of the fan(s) shall be measured.
