Multifunctional controls for gas burning appliances

This European Standard specifies the safety, construction and performance requirements for multifunctional
controls intended for use with gas burners, gas appliances and similar use, hereafter referred to as MFC.
This European Standard is applicable to MFC with declared maximum inlet pressures up to and including
50 kPa (500 mbar) of nominal connection sizes up to and including DN 150 for use with one or more fuel
gases in accordance with EN 437.
MFC consist of two or more functions, at least one of which is a mechanical control, as specified in the
relevant control standards (see Figure 1). MFC consisting only of electronics are not covered by EN 126 (an
example is a combination of functions according to EN 298 and EN 1643).

Mehrfachstellgeräte für Gasgeräte

Diese Europäische Norm legt die Sicherheits-, Bau- und Funktionsanforderungen an Mehrfachstellgeräte für Gasbrenner und Gasgeräte und ähnliche Anwendungen, nachstehend Mehrfachstellgeräte genannt, fest.
Diese Europäische Norm gilt für Mehrfachstellgeräte mit einem angegebenen höchsten Eingangsdruck bis einschließlich 50 kPa (500 mbar) mit Anschlussnennweiten bis einschließlich DN 150 zur Verwendung mit einem oder mehreren Brenngas(en) nach EN 437.
Mehrfachstellgeräte haben zwei oder mehr Funktionen, die durch mindestens ein mechanisches Regel- und Steuergerät dargestellt und in den jeweiligen RS-Normen festgelegt sind (siehe Bild 1). EN 126 gilt nicht für rein elektronische Mehrfachstellgeräte (z. B. eine Kombination aus EN 298 und EN 1643).

Equipements multifonctionnels pour les appareils à gaz

La présente Norme européenne prescrit les exigences de sécurité, de construction et de fonctionnement
relatives aux équipements auxiliaires multifonctionnels pour brûleurs à gaz, appareils à gaz et équipements
similaires, dénommés ci-après «MFC».
Elle s'applique aux MFC dont la pression amont maximale est inférieure ou égale à 50 kPa (500 mbar), de
diamètre nominal de raccordement inférieur ou égal à DN 150, et pour utilisation d’un ou plusieurs des gaz en
conformité avec l’EN 437.
Un MFC comporte au moins deux fonctions, dont au moins une est une commande mécanique, selon les
spécifications des normes applicables sur les équipements auxiliaires (voir Figure 1). Les équipements
multifonctionnels uniquement à base d’électronique ne relèvent pas de l’EN 126 (par exemple une
combinaison de fonctions selon l’EN 298 et l’EN 1643).

Večnamenske naprave za nadzor plinskih aparatov

Ta evropski standard določa zahteve v zvezi z varnostjo, izdelavo in lastnostmi za večnamenske naprave za nadzor (MFC) plinskih gorilnikov, aparatov in podobno uporabo, v nadaljevanju: »večnamenske naprave«. Ta evropski standard se uporablja za večnamenske naprave z deklariranim najvišjim vhodnim tlakom do vključno 50 kPa (500 mbar) nazivnih velikosti priključkov do vključno DN 150 za uporabo z enim ali več gorivnih plinov v skladu s standardom EN 437. Večnamenske naprave imajo vsaj dve funkciji, pri čemer je najmanj ena mehanski nadzor, kakor je določeno v ustreznih nadzornih standardih. Večnamenske naprave, ki temeljijo le na elektroniki, niso zajete v standardu EN 126 (primer je kombinacija funkcij v skladu s standardoma EN 298 in EN 1643).

The article discusses the European Standard EN 126:2012, which specifies the requirements for multifunctional controls (MFC) used with gas burners and appliances. The standard covers MFC with maximum inlet pressures up to 50 kPa and nominal connection sizes up to DN 150. MFC are defined as controls that have two or more functions, with at least one being a mechanical control. The standard does not apply to MFC that solely consist of electronics.
