EN 13779 Vehicle Cabin Air Quality Laboratory Testing Service Provided by Eurolab: A Comprehensive Guide

EN 13779 is a European standard that specifies the requirements for laboratory testing of vehicle cabin air quality. The standard is published by CEN (European Committee for Standardization) and is widely recognized as the de facto standard for this type of testing.

The standard is based on the principles of ISO 9001, which outlines the requirements for a quality management system. EN 13779 requires laboratories to demonstrate their ability to perform accurate and reliable tests, maintain documentation, and ensure the traceability of test results.

EN 13779 is closely aligned with other international standards, including:

  • ASTM (American Society for Testing and Materials) D6206: Standard Practice for Determining the Air Change Rate in a Vehicle
  • ISO 16256: Vehicles - Cabin air quality - Laboratory testing
  • TSE (Turkish Standards Institution) EN 13779: Motor vehicles - Laboratory testing of cabin air quality
  • The standard is developed by CEN Technical Committee 226, which comprises representatives from various European countries and organizations. The development process involves a thorough review of the latest scientific research and industry practices to ensure that the standard remains up-to-date.

    EN 13779 Vehicle Cabin Air Quality testing is essential for ensuring the safety and well-being of vehicle occupants. Poor air quality in vehicles can lead to various health problems, including respiratory issues, headaches, and fatigue.

    The business and technical reasons for conducting EN 13779 testing include:

  • Compliance with regulatory requirements: Many countries have laws and regulations that require vehicle manufacturers to demonstrate compliance with specific air quality standards.
  • Product safety and reliability: EN 13779 testing helps ensure that vehicles meet the required air quality standards, reducing the risk of accidents and improving occupant safety.
  • Quality assurance and control: Regular testing helps manufacturers identify areas for improvement and make necessary adjustments to their production processes.
  • The consequences of not performing EN 13779 testing can be severe, including:

  • Non-compliance with regulatory requirements
  • Safety risks to vehicle occupants
  • Damaged brand reputation and loss of customer trust
  • EN 13779 testing is required by various industries, including:

  • Vehicle manufacturers: To ensure compliance with regulatory requirements and maintain product safety.
  • Automotive suppliers: To demonstrate the quality and performance of their products.
  • Regulatory bodies: To monitor and enforce air quality standards.
  • The EN 13779 testing process involves several steps, including:

    1. Sample preparation: Vehicles are prepared for testing by ensuring that all occupants are removed, and the interior is cleaned and disinfected.

    2. Testing equipment: Specialized equipment is used to simulate various driving conditions, such as temperature, humidity, and air flow.

    3. Testing parameters: The test is conducted according to specific parameters, including:

    Temperature: 20C 5C

    Humidity: 60 10

    Air flow: 100 m³/h 10

    4. Measurement and analysis methods: Test results are measured using specialized instruments, such as gas analyzers and particle counters.

    5. Calibration and validation: Equipment is regularly calibrated and validated to ensure accuracy and reliability.

    EN 13779 testing results are documented in a comprehensive report that includes:

  • Test method details
  • Test parameters
  • Measured values
  • Data analysis and interpretation
  • Conclusion and recommendations
  • The report is structured according to the EN 45020 standard, which outlines the requirements for laboratory reports.

    EN 13779 Vehicle Cabin Air Quality testing provides numerous benefits, including:

  • Risk assessment and mitigation: By identifying potential air quality issues, manufacturers can take corrective action to ensure a safe and healthy environment for occupants.
  • Quality assurance and compliance: Regular testing helps manufacturers maintain product safety and comply with regulatory requirements.
  • Competitive advantages: Manufacturers that demonstrate their commitment to air quality can differentiate themselves from competitors and attract customers who prioritize health and safety.
