Overview
This standard applies to single unit electric tumble dryers for household and similar use intended for placing on the floor against a wall, for building-in or placing under a counter, a kitchen worktop or under a sink, for wall-mounting or on a counter.

This standard is also applicable for gas-fired electric tumble dryers. The measuring conditions specified in this Part 2-6 provide for sufficient accuracy in determining the noise emitted and comparing the results of measurements taken by different laboratories, whilst simulating as far as possible the practical use of tumble dryers. The responsible committee is DKE/UK 513.1 "Wäschepflegegeräte" ("Laundry machines") of the DKE (German Commission for Electrical, Electronic and Information Technologies) at DIN and VDE.
