The Range Hood Test Equipment (Model WH-YJ05-301A) is a performance and safety station for range hoods (cooker hoods) and integrated hood units. It measures airflow, static pressure, noise, grease separation and electrical safety in one automated station, producing the traceable data manufacturers need for performance claims and export compliance. It is the equipment behind searches for cooker hood tester and range hood airflow test machine.
Hood performance is judged on how much air it moves, against what pressure, how quietly and how effectively it captures grease — so the bench measures each of these independently and reports them against the rated specification. The airflow method and instrumentation are explained in range hood airflow testing.
What the Equipment Tests
- Airflow — extracted air volume under standardized duct conditions.
- Static pressure — pressure–flow performance of the fan.
- Noise — sound-pressure level in an acoustic configuration; see kitchen appliance noise and vibration.
- Grease separation — grease-filter capture efficiency.
- Electrical safety — insulation, earthing and leakage; see kitchen appliance electrical safety.
Standards & Compliance
The equipment is configured to the IEC 61591 method for measuring range-hood performance and the relevant GB/T standards, with IEC/EN/GB general electrical safety. For integrated stove-and-hood products, the air-performance test is run together with the gas test — see combined testing for integrated cookers and the integrated cooker test bench case. Documentation is summarized on certifications.
How the Test Runs
- Mount the hood on the standardized duct and connect electrical and acoustic measurement.
- Measure airflow and static pressure across fan settings to build the pressure–flow curve.
- Record noise level and run grease-separation and electrical-safety tests.
- Results are logged against the rated values and exported as a report.
Key Features
- Airflow, static pressure, noise and grease separation in one station.
- Standardized duct and pressure–flow measurement.
- Electrical safety testing included.
- Automatic data recording and traceable reports.
- Custom fixtures for different hood dimensions.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which hood properties are measured?
Airflow, static pressure, noise, grease separation and electrical safety, each reported against the rated specification.
What standard is used?
The IEC 61591 performance method with the relevant GB/T standards and IEC/EN/GB electrical safety; see airflow testing.
Can it test integrated hood-and-stove units?
Yes. The air test runs together with the gas combustion test — see combined testing.
