ISO DIS 19867-1

Description / Abstract: This part of ISO 19867 is applicable to cookstoves used primarily for cooking or water heating in domestic, small-scale enterprise, and institutional applications, typically with firepower less than 20 kW and cooking vessel volume less than 150 litres, excluding cookstoves used primarily for space heating. The provisions of this document are applicable to solar cookers. This document does not cover electric stoves. Safety evaluation of electric stoves can be found in IEC 60335-2-6.

This part of ISO 19867 specifies laboratory measurement and evaluation methods for (1) particulate and gaseous air pollutant emissions, (2) energy efficiency, (3) safety, and (4) durability of cookstoves. This document does not include evaluation of off-gassing from manufacturing oils, coatings, adhesives, and other materials (which can be found in ISO 10377 and ISO 14159). This document does not include evaluation of safety for cookstoves designed to burn a liquid and/or gaseous fuel, such as LPG (liquefied petroleum gas), alcohol, plant oil, kerosene, etc. Safety evaluation of gas-fuelled cookstoves can be found in ISO 23550 and ISO 23551. This part of ISO 19867 provides a Standard Test Sequence to establish international comparability in measurement of cookstove emissions and efficiency. (For contextual test sequences, used for indicating a cookstove’s performance under certain conditions of field use and for comparability within particular demographic settings, see ISO 19867-2.) Guidelines for reporting results from the laboratory measurement and evaluation methods are described. For cookstoves used in applications covered by additional requirements (e.g., local air quality and safety regulations), additional test conditions and special evaluation methods may apply.
