L'IEC 62552-3:2015 spécifie les caractéristiques essentielles des appareils de réfrigération à usage ménager et similaires, refroidis par convection naturelle interne ou par circulation d'air forcé, et établit les méthodes d'essai pour la vérification de ces caractéristiques.
La présente partie de l'IEC 62552 décrit les méthodes de détermination des caractéristiques de consommation d'énergie et définit comment elles peuvent être assemblées pour estimer la consommation d'énergie dans différentes conditions d'utilisation et climatiques. La présente partie de l'IEC 62552 définit également la détermination du volume.
Les normes IEC 62552-1, IEC 62552-2 et IEC 62552-3 annulent et remplacent la première édition de l'IEC 62552 publiée en 2007. Les normes IEC 62552-1, IEC 62552-2 et IEC 62552 3 constituent ensemble une révision technique et incluent les modifications techniques majeures suivantes apportées à l'IEC 62552:2007:
- Toutes les parties de la norme ont été largement réécrites et mises à jour pour tenir compte des nouvelles exigences d'essai, des nouvelles configurations du produit, de l'apparition de nouvelles commandes de produit électronique et d'équipements informatiques de collecte et de traitement de données de salle d'essai.
- La Partie 3 (la présente partie) fournit désormais une méthode permettant de quantifier chacune des composantes énergétiques pertinentes, ainsi que les approches permettant de les combiner pour évaluer l'énergie dans différentes conditions, en partant du principe que les différentes régions vont choisir les composantes et pondérations les plus applicables lors de l'établissement des critères de performances et d'efficacité énergétique tout en utilisant un seul ensemble de mesures d'essai globales.
- Pour les mesures de la consommation d'énergie dans la Partie 3 (la présente partie), aucune masse thermique (paquets d'essai) n'est incluse dans un compartiment, les températures de compartiment reposant sur la moyenne des capteurs de température de l'air (comparée à la température du paquet d'essai le plus chaud). La position des capteurs de température dans les compartiments non congelés présente également des différences importantes.
- L'essai de consommation d'énergie dans la Partie 3 (la présente partie) s'appuie désormais sur deux températures ambiantes spécifiées (16 °C et 32 °C).
- Un essai d'efficacité d'énergie de traitement de charge a été ajouté dans la Partie 3 (la présente partie).
- Un essai d'efficacité d'énergie de fabrication de glace du type à réservoir a été ajouté dans la Partie 3 (la présente partie).
- Les méthodes de mesure de la surface et du volume de stockage des étagères ne sont plus incluses. Dans la Partie 3 (la présente partie) la mesure du volume a été révisée pour donner le volume interne total avec uniquement les composants nécessaires au bon fonctionnement du système de réfrigération considéré comme étant en place.
- Des essais (de performances (Partie 2) et d'énergie (Partie 3 (la présente partie)) ont été ajoutés pour les appareils de stockage du vin.

Overview
SIST EN ISO 11501:2004 specifies a standardized test method for determining the dimensional change of plastics film and sheeting when subjected to heating. This European standard adopts ISO 11501:1995 and provides guidance for evaluating shrinkage or elongation in the longitudinal and transverse directions. The method applies to plastic films and sheeting up to 1 mm thick, whether or not they are classified as thermoshrinking materials. By following this standard, manufacturers and quality control labs can ensure the reliability, performance, and consistency of plastic films and sheets when exposed to heat during processing or end use.
Key Topics
- Dimensional Change on Heating: The core focus is on the measurement of changes in length and width of plastic sheets and films after controlled heating. This includes both expansion and shrinkage.
- Longitudinal and Transverse Directions: The standard prescribes methods for marking, measuring, and re-measuring the sample in both main directions.
- Temperature and Conditioning: Test specimens must be conditioned according to recognized procedures (e.g., standard atmospheres per ISO 291) before testing to ensure reproducibility.
- Apparatus and Procedure: Specifies use of a circulating-air oven, kaolin bed, metal container, temperature control, and precise measuring devices.
- Result Expression: The change in dimensions is expressed as a percentage, allowing for objective comparison across different material samples.
- Reporting Requirements: Guidance is given on the data and test conditions that should appear in the test report to ensure clarity and traceability.
Applications
SIST EN ISO 11501:2004 is valuable for multiple stakeholders in the plastic industry:
- Manufacturers of plastic films and sheeting: Ensures that products meet required specifications for dimensional stability during processes like printing, lamination, thermoforming, and packaging.
- Quality Control Laboratories: Provides a consistent methodology for verifying the heat response of plastic products, minimizing variability, and ensuring product compliance.
- Product Development and R&D: Offers data to inform the selection of materials for specific applications where temperature resistance and dimensional stability are critical.
- Specification Compliance: Facilitates clear communication between suppliers, purchasers, and regulatory bodies regarding product characteristics.
Typical use cases include food packaging films, shrink wraps, construction membranes, and films used in agriculture and industrial applications. By applying this test method, companies can reduce the risk of product failure or rejection caused by unanticipated dimensional changes during processing or use.
Related Standards
- ISO 291: Plastics - Standard atmospheres for conditioning and testing. Establishes the baseline environmental conditions for specimen preparation.
- EN ISO 11501: The official European adoption of ISO 11501, harmonizing testing methods across EU and EFTA countries.
- Additional standards covering related aspects of plastics testing may include:
- ISO 4593: Plastics - Film and sheeting - Determination of thickness by mechanical scanning
- ISO 4591: Plastics - Film and sheeting - Determination of average thickness
- ISO 1183: Plastics - Methods for determining the density of non-cellular plastics
Conclusion
SIST EN ISO 11501:2004 is an essential standard for evaluating and ensuring the dimensional stability of plastic films and sheeting under heat. By following the methods in this standard, manufacturers and quality professionals establish product reliability, facilitate process optimization, and demonstrate compliance with international plastics testing norms. This supports product quality in demanding applications where thermal exposure and geometric precision are critical.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide
federation of national Standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work
of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Esch member body interested in a subject for
which a technical committee has been established has the right to be
represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental
and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO
collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission
(IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are
circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International
Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting
a vote.
International Standard ISO 11501 was prepared by Technical Committee
lSO/TC 61, Plastics, Subcommittee SC 11, Products.
