BIS Certification for Wrought Copper Tubes for Refrigeration and Air-Conditioning Purpose IS 10773:1995

As per IS 10773:1995, BIS certification is mandatory for Wrought Copper Tubes for Refrigeration and Air- Conditioning Purpose. Wrought copper tubes shaped through mechanical processes take advantage of copper's strong thermal and electrical conductivity, corrosion resistance, and ductility, usually involving copper alloys. These alloys may include copper-zinc compositions that form brass or other variations such as nickel silver – a mixture of copper, nickel and zinc. These tubes are used in various industries, especially in refrigeration and air conditioning systems.

The efficacy, reliability and operational efficiency of HVAC (heating, ventilation and air conditioning) systems depend significantly on wrought copper tubes. These tubes contribute to a variety of applications, from industrial refrigeration units to residential air conditioners, increasing efficiency and energy conservation within the HVAC sector. Without ISI mark, these products cannot be imported or exported to the Indian consumer market.
