2015 implementing Directive 2009/125/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council with regard
to ecodesign requirements for professional refrigerated storage cabinets, blast cabinets, condensing
units and process chillers.
Once this standard is cited in the Official Journal of the European Union under that Regulation,
compliance with the normative clauses of this standard given in Table ZA.1 confers, within the limits of
the scope of this standard, a presumption of conformity with the corresponding ecodesign
requirements of that Regulation and associated EFTA regulations.
