Gas-fired central heating boilers - Part 2-1: Specific standard for type C appliances and type B2, B3 and B5 appliances of a nominal heat input not exceeding 1 000 kW
This document specifies the requirements and test methods, as well as the classification and marking 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 document is intended to be used in conjunction with EN 15502-1:2021.
This document covers gas-fired central heating boilers from the types C1 up to C(11) and the types B2, B3 and B5:
NOTE 1 For further background information on appliance types see EN 1749:2020.

European foreword
This document (prEN 15502-2-1:2021) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 109
“Central heating boilers using gaseous fuels”, the secretariat of which is held by NEN.
This document is currently submitted to the CEN Enquiry.This document supersedes EN 15502-2-1:2012+A1:2016.
The main technical changes compared to EN 15502-2-1:2012+A1:2016 are the following:
I) Resulting from the revision of EN 15502-1 into FprEN 15502-1:2020a) Technical changes related to eco-design and energy labelling for appliances ≤ 400 kW:
1) deletion of the requirements that can be found in the legislation itself;2) modification of the Annexes ZC and ZD.
b) New or generally reworded requirements:
1) separation between requirements and test methods in to different clauses;
2) moving additional common parts from EN 15502-2-1:2012+A1:2016 and/or
EN 15502-2-2:2014 to FprEN 15502-1:2020 (for example all definitions used in the parts
2 are moved to part 1; Therefore most of the definitions in this part are now by reference
to part 1);3) definitions added for Instructions for installation, Instructions for use and servicing, and
Technical documentation and consequently applied throughout the document;4) improved wording of definitions related to the air supply and combustion products
circuit;5) improved the references of the Annexes Z. The Annex Z referring to the GAD has been
removed and an Annex Z referring to the GAR has been inserted;6) only “instructions for installation” and “instructions for use and servicing” are defined.
Therefore these are the only instructions to be used in this document;7) improved definitions 'ducts / circuits';
8) definition weighted value of the NOx concentration added. With regard to Ecodesign, it is
clarified that the emissions declared are the emissions when using the references gases.
c) Limitation of the scope compared to the standards superseded by the EN 15502 series (that
were cited in the OJEU under the GAD):1) Types B and B appliances, as covered in EN 297:1994 /A4:2004 are not covered by this
14 4standard as there seems to be a limited market for these appliances due to the
introduction of the Ecodesign Directive that only has an exemption for B appliances.
NOTE B and B are non condensing appliances;14 4

2) this document does not cover all the requirements for appliances designed and
constructed to burn gas containing toxic components. In the past it was always
considered that the gases were not toxic, however this was never clearly indicated in the
scope. In fact this is not a change of scope, but a clarification of the scope;3) this document 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 AB). In the past no big variation in gas quality occurred. Due
to the EASEE-gas CBP wide variations of gas quality are considered. As these were never
covered in this document, the scope is modified to make clear that these variations are
not covered. In fact this is not a change of scope, but a clarification of the scope;
4) this document does not cover all the requirements for appliances above 1 000 kW. In fact
this is not a change of scope, but a clarification of the scope;5) this document does not cover all the requirements for appliances having a supplementary
heater. In fact this is not a change of scope, but a clarification of the scope as these
appliances were never included in the past, however due to the Ecodesign Regulation it
has become necessary to mention this more explicitly;II) Additional changes, not resulting from the revision of EN 15502-1 into
FprEN 15502-1:2020.
a) Technical changes related to eco-design and energy labelling for appliances ≤ 400 kW:
1) no changes.b) New or generally reworded requirements:
1) Separation between requirements and test methods in to different clauses;
2) changes resulting from moving additional common parts from
EN 15502-2-1:2012+A1:2016 and/or EN 15502-2-2:2014 to FprEN 15502-1:2020 (for
example all definitions used in the parts 2 are moved to part 1; Therefore most of the
definitions in this part are now by reference to part 1);3) the definitions for Instructions for installation, Instructions for use and servicing, and
Technical documentation are now consequently applied throughout the document;4) an Ann
