3.1 Object of the test
The purpose of this test is to evaluate the cleaning action of a wet cleaning appliance and
detergent.
The cleaning effectiveness is determined from measurements of the brightness change in
identically treated carpet samples.
In addition, cleaned carpet samples may be assessed visually in respect of fabric appearance,
streaks and blotches.
3.2 Wet cleaning effectiveness on carpet
3.2.1 Test carpet samples
At least five carpet samples, in accordance with 5.1.1.5, shall be used for a wet vacuum
cleaning test. The carpet samples shall be from the same production batch.
Prior to the test, the carpet samples shall be kept at standard atmospheric conditions for at
least 24 h and then be vacuum cleaned using an electric power nozzle with horizontal brush
roll. The whole surface of each sample shall be covered with 20 double strokes with the
forward strokes in the direction of the pile and at a stroke speed of 0,5 m/s. The weight of each
of the unsoiled carpet samples shall be recorded.
For each of the unsoiled carpet samples the brightness values at five fixed measuring points
shall be recorded in accordance with 3.2.6.
Each carpet sample shall then be artificially soiled according to 3.2.2 and undergo the cleaning
procedure described in 3.2.3.
3.2.2 Soiling of carpet sample
3.2.2.1 Distribution and embedding of soil
2
Test soil, in accordance with 5.1.2.6, shall be distributed with a mean coverage of 145 g/m as
uniformly as possible over the carpet sample.
NOTE For uniform distribution of the soil a device similar to the one described in 5.2.5 may be used.
The soil shall then be embedded into the carpet pile by carrying out five double strokes along
the direction of the warp with a roller, in accordance with 5.2.6.1, at a stroke speed of 0,2 m/s.
The test soil is worked in by carrying out 30 double strokes with a locked roller, according to
5.2.6.1, at a stroke speed of 0,2 m/s, the forward strokes being in the direction of the pile.
Ten double strokes are then carried out using a separate electric power nozzle with horizontal
brush roll without suction applied. The forward strokes shall be in the direction of the pile and
the stroke speed shall be 0,5 m/s.

60312 Amend. 2 IEC:2004 – 7 –
3.2.2.2 Removal of loose soiling material
Loose soiling material shall be removed from the carpet sample using the same power nozzle
as in 3.2.2.1, however with suction applied. Double strokes, with the last stroke in the direction
of the pile, shall be carried out, at a stroke speed of 0,5 m/s, until the difference in weight
between soiled and unsoiled carpet sample is less than 2 g. The final weight of the soiled
carpet sample shall be recorded.
The brightness values for the soiled carpet sample shall be recorded in accordance with 3.2.6.
3.2.3 Cleaning procedure
The soiled carpet sample shall be fastened into a testing surface in accordance with 5.2.15
from which cleaning agent residues and dirt have previously been removed. The carpet sample
shall be kept in place during the test by a clamping arrangement as indicated in Figure 21.
3.2.3.1 Cleaning liquid
Prior to the cleaning of the carpet sample, the cleaning liquid container of the appliance shall
be filled to its maximum level mark with cleaning liquid according to the manufacturer's
recommended detergent and dilution. The temperature of the water used for dilution shall be in
accordance wi
