Even so, Tatung's fridges are still qualified for energy star standards and obtained 2 1/2 stars. In addition, their refrigerators are also SAA, CB and CE certified, which means they are qualified under Australia's safety regulation and MEPS for lower energy consumption. Tatung's high efficiency refrigerators have won Technology Prize, Taiwan Fine Products Prize, National Q.C. Group Prize, National Product Design Prize since 1971.
Tatung's pursuit for high-quality refrigerators has never stopped. Besides upgrading their technology and examination equipment, developing efficiency, energy-savings and eco-friendly components are critical as well.
Consumers today need more convenience and performance features in their appliance refrigerators. They want attractive looking refrigerators, flexible food storage and a choice of refrigerator configuration. Due to soaring of energy costs, consumers are also looking forward to purchasing energy-effective refrigerators that will help them reduce their monthly electricity expense in energy consumption. Besides the refrigerator itself, how about the latent dangers around it? Besides finding a refrigerator that fits your room decoration, have you considered the durability of the refrigerator? Would you worry about your kids stepping in the refrigerator's drawer and hurting themselves? Is the top board flammable? How much weight can the refrigerator tolerate when putting stuff on top of it? Your light in the refrigerator might be broken and cause electricity leakage, and how would you know if the refrigerator is safe? In addition, because of the space limitation in some developing countries, there are always objects that placed on top of the refrigerators. Thus the soundness of the plastic boards is a concern. If a blackout occurs, its safety for embedding a candle and not causing a fire would be considered as well.

The consumers focus on product innovations that impact consumer convenience in a major way. Tatung differentiated its product features effectively and efficiently to consumers and bring in more cares on product safety. One of the biggest changes in energy refrigeration at Tatung is the rigorous product testing. As new models are designed, extensive performance and reliability testing is performed. There is enormous complexity involved in supplying products that have to be geared to different market needs. Because of Tatung's energy efficient refrigerator was tested for more than 30 items under different conditions and the experience from the field. It is a series of tests designed by Tatung's experts. As an OEM business, each model must pass rigid standards before that model is produced on the assembly line.



Fire-resistant 5VA grade material tested.
For instance, the light in the refrigerator is operated by a plunger-type button – when the door opens, it releases and the light is activated. Since refrigerator light bulbs are always in a humid environment, a light bulb's best combination of light output and length of life would be a concern. Tatung's refrigerator light is tested for its safety by using a wet sponge to wipe it with a calculated quantity and frequency. Eventually, a detailed report regarding its inspection and recommendation is provided.
Tatung's engineers evaluated the drawer weight tolerance in the refrigerator with loaded objects for its stableness. In case of fire, client requires fire-resistant material to avoid any accidents that would cause fires.
More efficient refrigerator examinations are:

• PS-9 Relay-lop terminal boots on TATUNG compressor.
• PS-9 Test on terminal block, in deck area.
• PS-9 Electronic board/timer/capacitors/etc. Plastic box enclosure 1) capacitor terminal.
• PS-9 RC thermostat control box foamed in connector.
• Plastic top - burning issue.
• Control knob - meeting 15lb force.
• Door switch - fails in component wash test.
• Lacerations/sharp edge on metal parts.
• Pigtail joints to be replaced with terminal block.
• Plastic bag for packaging…., etc
To become an well-known OEM partner, Tatung exerted all their strength to prove their capabilities of meeting strict requirements. As the world's home appliance leader, the standards for OEM product to be labeled under famous brand's logo is just as complicated as applying for CE, CB, UL certifications or ever more.
