About This Item
TS 9340 EN 255-1 is a terminology standard for heat pumps with electrically driven compressors used in heating and in heating/cooling applications. Its focus is on the names and definitions used to describe the performance of these systems, so that the same technical concepts are understood consistently across documents, catalogues, and engineering communication.
The scope applies to domestic and commercial heat pumps. In general technical terms, an electrically driven compressor is the component that raises the pressure of the refrigerant by using electrical power, making the heat pump cycle possible. A heat pump transfers heat from a lower-temperature source to a higher-temperature use point; because of that, clear terminology is essential when discussing performance, operating modes, and comparative ratings.
Why consistent terminology matters
In heat pump engineering, common terms often relate to heating capacity, cooling operation, efficiency, and operating conditions. A terminology standard does not usually prescribe a test method; instead, it defines the meaning of the terms so that manufacturers, designers, and test users are speaking the same technical language. Based on EN 255-1:1988, this document supports consistent understanding of the subject at the vocabulary level.
