Gas-fired heating boilers - Part 1: General requirements and tests

This European Standard specifies the common requirements and test methods, as well as the classification, marking and energy labelling of gas-fired central heating boilers that are fitted with atmospheric burners, fan assisted atmospheric burners or fully premixed burners, and are hereafter referred to as “boilers”.
This European Standard is to be used in conjunction with the specific Parts 2 (Part 2-1 and following ones).
This European Standard applies to boilers of types B and C.
NOTE For further background information on appliance types see CEN/TR 1749:2014 [1].
a) that use one or more combustible gases of the three gas families at the pressures stated in EN 437;
b) where the temperature of the water is below or above 105 °C during normal operation;
c) where the maximum operating pressure in the water circuit does not exceed 6 bar;
d) which can give rise to condensation under certain circumstances;
e) which are declared in the instructions for installation to be either a "condensing" boiler or a "low temperature boiler" or a "standard boiler" or an "other boiler". If no declaration is given the boiler is to be considered both a "standard boiler" and an "other boiler";
NOTE The Ecodesign Directive defines "other boilers", "low temperature boilers" and "condensing boilers". The Boiler Efficiency Directive defines "standard boilers", "low temperature boilers" and "condensing boilers". Depending on the legislation applied, a boiler can be both "a standard boiler" and an "other boiler"."
f) which are intended to be installed inside a building or in a partially protected place;
g) which are intended to produce also hot water either by the instantaneous or storage principle as a single unit.
This European Standard applies to boilers designed for sealed water systems or for open water systems.
NOTE This general standard and the specific standards (see Part 2) provide requirements for boilers with known constructions. For boilers with any alternative constructions, which might not fully be covered by this standard or a specific standard, the risk associated with this alternative construction will need to be assessed.
An example of an assessment methodology, based upon risk assessment, is given in Clause 11.
This European Standard is not intended to cover appliances intended for connection 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 EE).
This European Standard is not intended to cover appliances designed and constructed to burn gas containing toxic components.

Heizkessel fur gasförmige Brennstoffe - Teil 1: Allgemeine Anforderungen und Prüfungen

Dieses Dokument legt die allgemeinen Anforderungen und Prüfmethoden sowie die Klassifizierung, Kennzeichnung und Energiekennzeichnung" von Heizkesseln fest, die mit atmosphärischen Brennern mit oder ohne Ventilator oder mit Vormischbrenner ausgerüstet sind und nachfolgend kurz „Kessel“ genannt werden.
Dieses Dokument ist in Verbindung mit den Teilen 2 (Teil 2-1 und folgende) anzuwenden.
Dieses Dokument gilt für Kessel der Bauart B und C:
ANMERKUNG Für weitere Hintergrundinformationen zu Gerätearten siehe CEN/TR 1749:2014 [1].

ANMERKUNG Die Verordnung für umweltgerechte Gestaltung definiert „andere Kessel“, „Niedertemperaturkessel“ und „Brennwertkessel“. Die Wirkungsgradrichtlinie (en: Boiler Efficiency Directive) definiert „Standardkessel“, „Niedertemperaturkessel“ und „Brennwertkessel“. Basierend auf der angewendeten Gesetzgebung kann ein Kessel sowohl ein „Standardkessel“ als auch ein „anderer Kessel“ sein.
f) die dafür vorgesehen sind, im Gebäude oder an einer teilweise geschützten Stelle aufgestellt zu werden;
g) die dafür vorgesehen sind, nach dem Durchlaufprinzip oder nach dem Speicherprinzip auch Warmwasser herzustellen, wobei das Ganze als eine Einheit vertrieben wird.
Dieses Dokument ist für Kessel anwendbar, die für geschlossene oder offene Wassersysteme ausgelegt sind.
ANMERKUNG Diese allgemeine Norm und die speziellen Normen (siehe Teil 2) beschreiben die Anforderungen für Kessel mit bekannter Bauweise. Für Kessel mit alternativer Bauweise, die eventuell nicht vollständig durch diese oder eine spezielle Norm abgedeckt werden, bedarf das Risiko, das mit dieser alternativen Bauweise verbunden ist, einer Abschätzung.
Ein Beispiel für eine auf einer Risikoanalyse beruhenden Bewertungsmethode wird in Abschnitt 11 beschrieben.
Dieses Dokument ist nicht für Geräte zum Anschluss an Gasversorgungsnetze bestimmt, bei denen die Qualität des verteilten Gases wahrscheinlich über die Lebensdauer des Geräts stark variiert (siehe Anhang EE).
Dieses Dokument behandelt nicht alle Anforderungen für:
a) Geräte über 1 000 kW;
b) Geräte, die für die Verbrennung von Gas ausgelegt und konstruiert sind, das Kohlenmonoxid und andere giftige Komponenten enthält.

Plinski kotli za ogrevanje - 1. del: Splošne zahteve in preskusi

Ta evropski standard določa splošne zahteve in preskusne metode ter klasifikacijo, označevanje in energetsko označevanje plinskih kotlov za centralno ogrevanje z nameščenimi atmosferskimi gorilniki, atmosferskimi gorilniki z ventilatorjem ali gorilniki s popolnim vnaprejšnjim mešanjem (v nadaljevanju: »kotli«).
Ta evropski standard je treba uporabljati v povezavi s posebnimi 2. deli (del 2-1 in naslednji deli).
Ta evropski standard se uporablja za kotle tipov B in C:
OPOMBA: Za dodatne informacije o tipih kotlov glej standard CEN/TR 1749:2014 [1].
a) ki uporabljajo enega ali več gorljivih plinov iz treh družin plinov pri tlakih, navedenih v standardu EN 437;
b) pri katerih temperatura vode pri običajnem delovanju ne presega 105 °C;
c) pri katerih najvišji obratovalni tlak v vodnem omrežju ne presega 6 barov;
d) ki lahko pod določenimi pogoji povzročijo kondenzacijo;
e) ki so v navodilih za namestitev deklarirani kot »kondenzacijski kotli« ali »nizkotemperaturni kotli« ali »standardni kotli« ali »drugi kotli«; Če ni navedene deklaracije, se kotel šteje za »standardni kotel« in »drug kotel«.
OPOMBA: Direktiva o okoljsko primerni zasnovi opredeljuje »druge kotle«, »nizkotemperaturne kotle« in »kondenzacijske kotle«. OPOMBA: Direktiva o učinkovitosti kotlov opredeljuje »standardne kotle«, »nizkotemperaturne kotle« in »kondenzacijske kotle«. Glede na uporabljeno zakonodajo je kotel lahko »standardni kotel« in »drug kotel«.
f) ki so namenjeni vgradnji v zgradbi ali delno zaščitenem prostoru;
g) ki so namenjeni ogrevanju vode po načelu pretočnosti ali načelu shranjevanja.
Ta evropski standard se uporablja za kotle za zaprte ali odprte vodne sisteme.
OPOMBA: Ta splošni standard in posebni standardi (glej 2. del) določajo zahteve za kotle z znanimi konstrukcijami. V zvezi s kotli z drugačnimi konstrukcijami, ki morda niso v celoti zajeti v tem standardu ali posebnem standardu, je treba oceniti tveganje, povezano z drugačno konstrukcijo.
Primer metodologije ocenjevanja, ki temelji na oceni tveganja, je naveden v točki 11.
Ta evropski standard ni namenjen obravnavi aparatov za povezavo s plinskimi omrežji, v katerih bo kakovost distribuiranega plina med življenjsko dobo aparata verjetno znatno nihala (glej dodatek EE).
Ta evropski standard ni namenjen obravnavi aparatov, zasnovanih in izdelanih za zgorevanje plina, ki vsebuje strupene sestavine.
