EN 61591 applies to cooking fume extractors in a home kitchen with a fan for recirculation or suction mode. It can also be used for cooking fume extractors where the fan is installed separately from the appliance but controlled by the appliance when the fan is defined in the technical documentation (eg nameplate data) and installation instructions.
This standard also deals with downdraft systems placed next to, behind or below the cooking appliance. It also defines the main performance characteristics of these devices of interest to the user and specifies methods for measuring these characteristics.
This standard does not specify a classification or ranking for performance. This standard is not related to the safety requirements according to IEC 60335-1 and IEC 60335-2-31.
