Hand Dryers:

Energy Conservation Labeling Program Requirements for Hand Dryers
(Promulgated and in effect September 12, 2003)

1. The measured Useful Energy Ratio (UER) for Energy Label qualified hand dryer products shall be no less than 90%. If the product is touch activated, each drying session shall be less than 40 seconds; if the product is motion activated, the power shall be cut-off within 2 seconds after the sensor sensed the absence of user, and each drying session shall be less than 1 minute.
2. Notes on product labeling:
 a. The name and address of the label user shall be clearly displayed on the product or product packaging. If the label user is an agent, the name and address of the product
  manufacturer shall also be clearly displayed on the product or product packaging;
b. The Useful Energy Ratio (UER) (%) shall be stated in the product catalog.
3. Note on calculation of UER: Useful Energy Ratio is the ratio of thermal energy output from heated air to hand dryer electricity consumption, and shall be calculated as follows:
