This European Standard applies to mechanical cooling devices with air circulation heat exchangers with or without heating device. The mechanical cooling devices are intended to be used with insulated transport equipment. They include a drive or a means of force transmission and are provided with all the components necessary for the controlled thermal transport system. The mechanical cooling devices can be powered with independent engine and/or vehicle engine and/or any other source of energy. This standard specifies the testing methodologies.
