prEN IEC 62885-11:2026

This part of IEC 62885 is applicable for measurements of the performance of wet hard floor cleaning robots (3.3) for household use or under conditions similar to those in households.
The purpose of this document is to specify the essential performance characteristics of wet hard floor cleaning robots (3.3) that are of interest to users and to describe methods for measuring these characteristics.
In the case of multi-purposes cleaning robot (3.2), this document only addresses the performance, navigation and mobility related to the wet cleaning functionality.
This document is not intended for non-robotics cleaning appliances, high pressure cleaners or steam cleaners. This document is neither concerned with safety requirements nor with
performance requirements.
NOTE Owing to the influence of environmental conditions, variations in time, origin of test materials and proficiency of the operator, most of the described test methods give more reliable results when applied to comparative testing of a number of appliances at the same time, in the same laboratory and by the same operator.
