Professional aerodynamic and energy testing of ventilation fans per ISO 5801 and Ecodesign — airflow 0–5000 m³/h.
AB 308
ILAC MRACOCH Kraków offers professional fan testing for manufacturers and end-users who need verified performance, Ecodesign conformity and electrical safety — covered by PCA AB 308 accreditation.
Characteristics are determined in accordance with PN-EN ISO 5801, ANSI/AMCA 210 / ASHRAE 51 and Ecodesign regulations (EU) 327/2011 and (EU) 2024/1834 (PCA AB 308). The laboratory covers airflows from 0 to 5000 m³/h.
We support both type-approval / market-entry documentation and R&D optimisation of radial and axial fans used in HVAC, refrigeration and industrial systems.
Tests are covered by PCA AB 308 accreditation with ILAC MRA recognition — reports are accepted across the ILAC zone without repeat testing abroad.

Accredited aerodynamic, energy and safety tests for ventilation fans.
Air drawn in axially and discharged radially — preferred where higher pressure rise is required.
Air drawn in and discharged axially — suitable for higher volume flows at lower pressure rise.
We determine performance characteristics and verify Ecodesign and LVD requirements on standardised laboratory airways.

Precise measurement of actual volume flow so the fan can be verified against declared performance.
Determination of total and static pressure rise — key to overcoming duct and system resistance.
Full performance curves linking airflow, pressure rise and shaft power across the operating range.
Verification for fans with motor input 125 W–500 kW under Commission Regulation (EU) No 327/2011 and the successor Regulation (EU) 2024/1834 (applicable from 24 July 2026).
Low Voltage Directive electrical safety tests required for CE marking on the EU market.
Tests supporting the Polish B safety mark — confirmation of electrical and mechanical safety.
PN-EN ISO 5801, ANSI/AMCA 210 / ASHRAE 51, Commission Regulation (EU) No 327/2011 and Commission Regulation (EU) 2024/1834 — PCA AB 308 accreditation.
Aerodynamic and energy tests for fans with airflows in the range 0–5000 m³/h.

Condensation capacity, energy consumption and LVD safety testing of air dehumidifiers.

Cooling capacity, drive power and COP tests for compressors per EN 13771.

LVD, B-mark and energy-consumption tests for refrigeration and HVAC equipment.
