7. LOADING
Announced capacity
The advertised capacity is measured according to the EN62552 standard. This standard is
calculated with 75cl traditional Bordeaux type bottles. Any other type of bottle format as well
as the addition of shelves will considerably reduce the storage capacity. The maximum
capacity is calculated with a defined number of shelves which vary according to the models.
The maximum recommended loading quantities for bottles are given as guidelines and are
indicative only; they provide a quick estimate of the size of the appliance (similar to the
capacity of a refrigerator expressed in liters).
They correspond to tests conducted with a standard bottle: the standard
“75 cl light Bordeaux”
bottle -standards apply the geographical origin of each bottle shape (Bordeaux, Burgundy,
Provence, etc.) and a type (traditional, heavy, light, flute, etc.), each with its own diameter and
height.
In reality and in extreme cases, you could store more bottles by stacking the same type of
bottle without using shelves, but a varied cellar comprises a wide variety of bottles and the
practical aspect of everyday cellar management limits its capacity. You will therefore probably
load the appliance a little less than the recommended maximum.
