3.1 Green household electric appliances

high-quality household electric appliances that in the whole life cycle, meet the requirements of environmental protection, are harmless or minimally harmful to the ecological environment and human health, and consume less resources and energy

NOTE 1: The whole life cycle includes the various stages of the product's raw material procurement, production, transportation, sales, use, recycling and scrap.

NOTE 2: Hereinafter referred to as "green appliances".

3.2 Reference value of assessment indicator

the limit value of the index set for evaluating green household electric appliances (3.1) enterprise shall put forward relevant quality, environment, energy and safety management requirements for the main raw material suppliers, production partners, and related service parties of the product.

- In the production process of the product, substances such as hydrochlorofluorocarbon, 1,1,1-trichloroethane, trichloroethylene, dichloroethylene, methylene chloride, chloroform, carbon tetrachloride, bromopropane, etc. shall not be used as a cleaning solvent;

- Lead-free soldering technology shall be used for soldering in the production process of electronic circuit boards and similar products;

- Products that need to be charged with refrigerants or foaming agents during the production process shall not use refrigerants and foaming agents with an ozone depleting potential (ODP) greater than zero;

- Products that need to be charged with refrigerant during the production process shall be equipped with and effectively use refrigerant recovery devices at the production site.

NOTE: Evaluation reports or test reports that meet the requirements of relevant standards, certification certificates within the validity period, management systems, process documents and so on can be provided as proof materials.

Where, K - Generalization rate, expressed in percentage, to 1 decimal place; sum B - Total number of standard parts in the product; sum T - Total number of common parts in the product;

sum L - Total number of accessories (parts) and components in the product.

Common parts in the product shall be managed in accordance with the requirements of JB/T 5054.8. Provide the corresponding supporting materials (number, application form, common parts details and so on).

4 Assessment requirements

4.1.1.4 The production enterprise shall carry out product green design work in accordance with the relevant requirements of GB/T 24256. While considering environmental requirements, the design work shall consider the durability, reliability, maintainability, reusability, remanufacturing, modularization, intelligence, and easy disassembly (separation) and easy recycling of components that have an adverse effect on the environment throughout the product life cycle.

4.1.1.5 The production enterprise shall adopt advanced technology and technology, instead of the technology, technique, equipment and related materials restricted, eliminated or prohibited by the relevant departments of the state and local government. The following are examples that meet the requirements of this article (but not limited to the following situations):

The production enterprise shall strictly implement relevant national standards for energy conservation and environmental protection and provide a list of standards.

4.1.1.7 The production enterprise shall be able to provide corresponding certification materials that are consistent with the actual situation.

A.4 Dehumidify capacity of cooling

Conduct rated cooling capacity test according to GB/T 7725-2004. The dehumidify capacity of cooling is calculated according to formula (A.4).

Where, Wphi - Dehumidify capacity of cooling, in kilograms kilowatts per hour [kg/(hꞏkW)], to 2 decimal places; mc - In the rated refrigeration test, from the beginning of the data recording to the end of the test that is not less than 1h, the amount of condensate collected at the drain pipe interface, in kilograms (kg), to 3 decimal places; t - Condensate collection time, in hours (h), to 1 decimal place;

phit - During the rated cooling capacity test, the measured cooling capacity, in kilowatts (kW), to 3 decimal places.

A.5 Low temperature heating capacity rate

Carry out heating capacity test under rated low temperature heating conditions according to GB/T 7725-2004. The low temperature heating capacity rate is calculated according to formula (A.5).

Where, PL - Low temperature heating capacity rate, in percentage, to 1 decimal place;
