This European Standard specifies the requirements and test methods for the construction, safety, fitness
for purpose, rational use of energy and the marking of a micro combined heat and power appliance;
(hereafter referred to as “mCHP appliance”).
This European Standard applies to mCHP appliances of types B22, B23, B32, B33, B52, B53, C1, C3, C42, C43
C52, C53, C62, C63, C82, C83 and C9 based on the classifications of CEN/TR 1749:
– that use one or more supplied gases of the three gas families at the pressures stated in EN 437,
– where the temperature of the heat transfer fluid of the heating system (heating water circuit) does
not exceed 105 ºC during normal operation,
– where the maximum operating pressure in the
- heating water circuit does not exceed 6 bar,
- domestic hot water circuit (if installed) does not exceed 10 bar,
– which are either intended to be installed indoors or outdoors in a partially protected place,
– which are intended to produce hot water either by the instantaneous or storage principle,
– which have a maximum heat input (based on net calorific value) not exceeding 70 kW,
– which are designed for sealed or open water systems.
NOTE 1 For applications where the maximum allowable water temperature exceeds 110 ºC or where volume multiplied by
maximum allowable pressure exceeds 50 bar litres, further requirements may be necessary to comply with the essential
requirements of Directive 97/23/EC (Pressure Equipment Directive (PED)).
NOTE 2 For mCHP appliances with constructions that might not be fully covered by this European Standard or by another specific
standard, the risk associated with the alternative construction will be assessed.
NOTE 3 prEN 13203-4 will specify the assessment of energy consumption for domestic hot water production of gas combined
heat and power appliances (mCHP).
This European Standard does not contain the requirements necessary for appliance capable of producing
electrical energy without using the thermal energy.
This European Standard does not cover all the requirements for mCHP appliances that are intended to be
connected to gas grids where the quality of the distributed gas is likely to vary to a large extent over the
lifetime of the appliance (see Annex DD).

This European Standard applies to free-standing, wall-mounted and built-in appliances with a maximum power output of 4,5 kW.
This European Standard applies for appliances ready for use, whose burner is of one unit or are an integral component of the appliances but not for appliances with a fuel tank separate from the appliance.
This European Standard does not apply for appliances specifically designed for heating food or keeping food warm (rechauds), as well as for appliances for use in boats, caravans, other vehicles or outdoor areas.
This European Standard does not apply for appliances with a power output higher than 4,5 kW or with a defined heating function.
NOTE 2   National regulation may restrict the power output to less than 4,5 kW.

ISO 9459-4:2013 specifies a method of evaluating the annual energy performance of solar water heaters using a combination of test results for component performance and a mathematical model to determine an annual load cycle task performance under specified weather and load conditions. The procedure is applicable to solar water heaters with integral backup or preheating into a conventional storage or instantaneous water heater and to integral collector storage water heaters. System operating requirements specified in ISO 9459-4:2013 are for the purpose of determining an annual performance rating for domestic water heaters. There are no product design or operation requirements in ISO 9459-4:2013.

ISO 9459-5:2007 specifies a method for outdoor laboratory testing of solar domestic hot-water (SDHW) systems. The method may also be applied for in-situ tests, and also for indoor tests by specifying appropriate draw-off profiles and irradiance profiles for indoor measurements. The system performance is characterized by means of whole-system tests using a 'black-box' approach, i.e. no measurements on the system components or inside the system are necessary. Detailed instructions are given on the measurement procedure, on processing and analysis of the measurement data, and on presentation of the test report.
