Regulation on Ecodesign Requirements for Fans Driven by Motors with Electrical Input Power Between 125 W and 500 kW
AI-generated summary for informational purposes only. Not legal advice. See the original source for the authoritative text.
This Turkish regulation, effective from 7 February 2026, establishes mandatory ecodesign (environmentally conscious design) requirements for fans driven by motors with electrical input power ranging from 125 W to 500 kW. It covers fans integrated into other products and sets minimum energy efficiency standards at the best efficiency point (BEP). The regulation adopts EU Regulation 2024/1834 and excludes specific categories such as explosion-proof fans, emergency smoke extraction fans operating above 300°C, nuclear and military applications, fans for extreme temperatures, kitchen hoods below 280 W, and handheld or battery-operated devices. Manufacturers must conduct conformity assessments, maintain technical files with performance calculations, and provide product information. Market surveillance verification procedures are also defined.
