PHNIX R290 All-in-one Heat Pump Water Heater airExpert Attains ErP Certification

Guangzhou, China, Apr. 13, 2022-PHNIX's airExpert R290 all-in-one heat pump water heater attains ErP certification, which proves that the water heater is in line with the required standards of ErP certification and makes it a step further in the progress of attaining CE certification. Meanwhile, getting this certification is also a good news for our European partners as it will give the new green gas water heater itself the priority to achieve the threshold to enter the European market and circulate smoothly within European areas.

ErP certification is based on the certification requirements of the ErP directive under the CE mark of the EU, and attaining the ErP directive is a necessity for attaining the CE mark. It plays a significant role in environmental protection and energy supply security. Therefore, before the products involved in the implementation measures are exported to Europe, the requirements of ErP directive must be taken into account.

However, the process of obtaining ErP certification is extremely complex and rigorous. As a CE mark instruction, the ErP instruction is now required to be executed together with other requirements such as LVD instruction, EMC instruction and RoHS instruction. To make the R290 heat pump water heater qualified and fully prepared for the certification, PHNIX has done a lot of tests on the product, such as energy efficiency tests and noise tests, so as to ensure the optimal quality, as well as the professionalism and strict quality control of PHNIX.

According to Edward Zheng, director in charge of PHNIX DHW heat pump division, “At present, against the background of the goal of European carbon neutrality, Europe will gradually phase out products with high GWP value, which has a great impact on reducing the greenhouse effect. As a farsighted enterprise, PHNIX follows the policy and develops a variety of R290 products with GWP of only 3, which makes the products highly competitive in European market. Furthermore, ErP and CE are the compulsory access certification of European market, providing the most fundamental guarantee for the circulation of our products in Europe.”
