European foreword
This document (EN 15218:2022) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 113 “Heat pumps
and air conditioners”, the secretariat of which is held by UNE.
This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an
identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by June 2023, and conflicting national standards shall be
withdrawn at the latest by June 2023.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. CEN shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
This document supersedes EN 15218:2013.
— alignment with the EN 14511 series under revision;
— addition of Annex ZB relating to Commission Regulation (EU) No 626/2011 aimed to be covered.
This document has been prepared under a Standardization Request given to CEN by the European
Commission and the European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of
EU Directive(s) / Regulation(s).
For relationship with EU Directive(s) / Regulation(s), see informative Annexes ZA and ZB, which are
integral parts of this document.

1 Scope
This document specifies the terms, definitions, test conditions, test methods and requirements for rating
the performance of air conditioners and liquid chilling packages, with electrically driven compressors
and with evaporatively cooled condenser when used for space cooling. The evaporatively cooled
condenser is cooled by air and by the evaporation of external additional water. This additional external
water is fed by a specific water supply circuit or by a water tank.
This document is not applicable to air-to-air and air-to-water air conditioners with a condenser cooled
by air and by the evaporation of water condensed on their evaporator.
This document is applicable to units equipped with a water tank or with a continuous water circuit supply
that can also operate without water feeding. However, this document only concerns the testing of these
units with water feeding.
This document is applicable to factory-made units which can be ducted.
This document is applicable to factory-made units of either fixed capacity or variable capacity by any
means.
Packaged units, single split and multisplit systems are covered by this document.
With regard to units consisting of several parts, this document applies only to those designed and
supplied as a complete package.
For evaporatively cooled condenser units that can also operate in heating mode, their performance in this
mode is determined according to EN 14511:2022 (all parts).
Units used for industrial processes cooling are not within the scope of this document.
This document specifies the conditions for which performance data will be declared for compliance with
the Ecodesign Regulation 206/2012 and with the Energy Labelling Regulation 626/2011 of air
conditioners with evaporatively cooled condenser in cooling mode.
NOTE All the symbols given in this text can be used regardless of language.
