CJ/T 194 Non-contact Water Supply Device
QB 1334 Universal Technical Terms for Faucets
3 Terms and Definitions
For the purposes of this standard, the following terms and definitions apply.
Difference among flow rates
It refers to the difference among maximum average flow rate under different dynamic pressures for faucets (with accessories).
Minimum allowable values of water efficiency for faucets
It refers to the allowable maximum flow under the test conditions specified in this standard where faucets meet the requirements of processing and assembly quality as well as appearance quality and service performance.
Water efficiency grades for faucets
Grade I, II and III are divided into according to difference among flow rates and flow rate values of products under the test conditions specified in this standard where the faucets meet the requirements of processing and assembly quality as well as appearance quality and service performance; Grade I indicates maximum water efficiency and Grade III indicates the minimum allowable value of water efficiency.
Rated water efficiency grade
It refers to the water efficiency grades for faucets indicated by the manufacturer according to those specified in this standard where faucets are delivered from the factory.
