BIS CERTIFICATION FOR Evaporative Air Coolers (Desert Coolers) IS 3315:2019

During hot summer days, many find themselves longing for a cool breeze to alleviate the heat. Evaporative air coolers, also known as desert coolers, provide a cost-effective and energy-efficient solution by cooling the air through water evaporation.

Lets delve deeper into IS 3315:2019 for Evaporative Air Coolers.

IS 3315:2019 is an Indian Standard established by the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) for the certification of evaporative air coolers, also known as desert coolers. These coolers are widely used in India, especially in regions with hot and dry climates. Their operation involves passing hot air through water-soaked pads, providing an eco-friendly cooling solution without the need for refrigerants. Foreign companies looking to import products into India must comply with BIS standards to facilitate easier entry into the Indian market.

Desert coolers are commonly used in homes, offices, and commercial spaces due to their cost-effectiveness and energy efficiency. They are increasingly popular because of their low power consumption and suitability for various indoor environments. The BIS certification, which includes the ISI Mark, assures consumers that the product meets Indian standards, thereby enhancing consumer trust. BIS certification is mandatory for importing and selling products in India. The online BIS process enables foreign manufacturers to obtain the necessary BIS license, ensuring smooth customs clearance under the QCO Order. Achieving the ISI mark confirms the product’s authenticity and guarantees compliance with BIS quality and safety requirements.
