Introduction of new national standard electric water heater most innocent people – electric water heater, gas water heater, solar water heater – HC Network Appliance Industry-hc360
Water heaters available in the market variety, but because of the lack of uniform standards, consumers choose up or embarrassment. Profile picture
New standards next year, take effect from July 1, requirements established "anti-power wall" to ensure the water is not charged, if the user has to declare
Recent temperature decline, the problems caused by the water heater is also frequent. Last week, the national authorities issued a new standard for electric water heaters, which clearly stated: electric water heater manufacturers need to address environmental threats to the safety of consumer bath charged issue. The new national standard will be July 1, 2007 come into force. This means that electric water heater "discharge bite" of the situation will be effectively contained. But the reporters found that most people are unaware of this.
Corporate Responsibility will be held environmental leakage
Currently there is thermal water heater and the storage-type, but the prices are high, and most of these heaters do not have the "anti-power wall" technology. The salesman told reporters that at present the market of foreign brand electric water heater, only two domestic enterprises with the "anti-power wall" technology can effectively play the role of the environment against electricity, water heater only with other anti-electricity leakage protection function .
Recently, electric water heater formally promulgated the new national standards, primarily the safety of the water heater standards, performance standards and installation standards for new regulations were made in three areas, with particular emphasis on the water heater to ensure water is not charged, if the water heater manufacturers are not with this feature, you should sell when the user statement. This standard will be officially on July 1 next year began, which means consumers on July 1 next year to buy a water heater of this statement, if the environment caused by electric shock accident, manufacturers must be held accountable. At the same time, IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) has the storage-type electric water heater electrical standards in the anti-proposal in May next year, the IEC will be meeting in Finland to vote, once adopted will become the international standard.
But yesterday's
appliance store in a few random interviews Jing Mei was aware of the new national standard, consumers generally that "as long as the water heater does not leak on the line," but actually "live, or not due to circuit ground wire ground lead water pipes, etc. external device leakage "is the main cause of the accident. It is understood that in the past found responsible for the accident of electric shock, the encounter the "environmental leakage" situation, manufacturers often claim that the product itself is no problem without charge to the consumer rights protection is very difficult road.
Shopping look for "SafeCare" logo
It is understood that my water heater safety standard has been adopted is equivalent to IEC standards. However, power consumption environment in China has a special situation. Last year, the State Council departments jointly issued the "2005 China's household electricity Environmental Investigation Report" shows that more than 20 cities in 2386 surveyed households, up 75.9% of households varying degrees of risks, including 46.9% of households No ground wire or ground is not reliable, but aging line, line of fire, earth and other electrical installation location is not correct potential safety problems are also common. These are precisely the cause electric water heater electric shock accident.
As consumers, how to identify "anti-power wall" water heater do? According to reports, "anti-electric wall" technology is the formation of a permanent in-house water heater resistor, thereby reducing the abnormal situation after the current value of the human body. My general standard voltage is 220V, through the "anti-power wall" treatment of the human body to withstand the maximum voltage equal to 12V, much lower than the body's safe voltage 36V, which ensure consumer safety. The Consumers Association, Institute of Chinese home appliance, home appliances in China to develop a safe water heater Association logo "SafeCare", as long as the water heater with this logo, people can feel comfortable buying. At present, the Consumers Association have jointly Appliances Research Institute, the Consumer Electronics Association to develop a safe water heater symbol "SafeCare", as long as consumers buy water heaters, look for the signs can be.
