Product : Air Compressors
IS Standard : IS 5456
The Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE) has a voluntary program for energy efficiency labeling for air compressors in India. The program is designed to encourage manufacturers to produce more energy-efficient air compressors and to help consumers make informed purchasing decisions.
Under the program, air compressors are rated based on their energy consumption and given a star rating from 1 to 5 stars. A higher star rating indicates a more energy-efficient product. Manufacturers are required to obtain BEE registration for their air compressors before they can display the energy efficiency label on their products.
To obtain BEE registration, manufacturers need to submit their product specifications and test reports from a BEE-recognized laboratory. The product will be tested for its energy consumption and efficiency, and the manufacturer will be assigned a star rating based on the results.
It's worth noting that BEE registration for air compressors is currently voluntary, but it's likely that it will become mandatory in the near future. This is in line with the Indian government's efforts to promote energy efficiency and reduce carbon emissions in the country.
