Thermal insulation products for buildings - Factory made reflective insulation products (RI) - Specification

This European Standard specifies the requirements for factory made reflective insulation products, which are used for the thermal insulation of buildings. The products are manufactured in the form of rolls, boards or sheets and are used in conjunction with an air space or spaces and in non load-bearing applications.
It applies to thermal insulation products that derive a proportion of their claimed thermal properties from the presence of one or more reflective or low emissivity surfaces together with any associated airspace(s).
This European Standard describes product characteristics and includes procedures for testing, evaluation of conformity, marking and labelling.
This European Standard does not specify the required level of a given property to be achieved by a product to demonstrate fitness for purpose in a particular application. The levels required for a given application are to be found in regulations or non-conflicting standards.
This European Standard covers the use of products for heat retention in buildings (cold or temperate climate) and an informative annex provides for the provision of further information on the product performance for applications with downwards heat flow.

Wärmedämmstoffe für Gebäude - Werkmäßig hergestellte reflektierende Wärmedämmstoffe - Spezifikation

Diese Europäische Norm legt die Anforderungen für werkmäßig hergestellte reflektierende Wärmedämmstoffe, die für die Wärmedämmung von Gebäuden verwendet werden, fest. Die Wärmedämmstoffe werden in Form von Rollen, Platten oder Folien hergestellt und in Verbindung mit (einem) Luftspalt(en) in nicht-tragenden Anwendungen verwendet.
Die Norm ist auf Wärmedämmstoffe anwendbar, die einen Anteil der angegebenen thermischen Eigenschaften aus dem Vorhandensein einer oder mehrerer reflektierender oder niedrig emittierender Oberflächen zusammen mit verbundenem Hohlraum beziehen.
Diese Europäische Norm beschreibt die Produkteigenschaften und enthält die Prüfverfahren und Festlegungen für die Konformitätsbewertung, die Kennzeichnung und die Beschriftung.
Diese Europäische Norm legt keine Klassen oder Leistungsstufen für eine vorgegebene Eigenschaft fest, die ein Produkt erreichen muss, um für einen bestimmten Anwendungsfall tauglich zu sein. Die für bestimmte Anwendungen benötigten Klassen und Stufen können Regelwerken oder nicht entgegenstehenden Normen entnommen werden.
Diese Europäische Norm deckt die Verwendung von Produkten für das Wärmerückhaltevermögen in Gebäuden (kaltes oder gemäßigtes Klima) ab und ein informativer Anhang stellt die Vorgaben für weiteren Informationen über die Produktleistungsfähigkeit für Anwendungen mit absteigendem Wärmefluss bereit.

Produits isolants thermiques pour le bâtiment - Produits d'isolation réfléchissants manufacturés - Spécification

La présente Norme européenne définit les exigences pour les produits d’isolation réfléchissants manufacturés, qui sont utilisés pour l’isolation thermique des bâtiments. Les produits sont fabriqués sous forme de rouleaux, de panneaux ou de feuilles et sont utilisés conjointement à une ou plusieurs couches d’air et dans des applications sans charge.
Elle s’applique aux produits d’isolation thermique dont une partie des propriétés thermiques revendiquées est due à la présence d’une ou plusieurs surfaces réfléchissantes ou à faible émissivité vis-à-vis de couche(s) d’air associée(s).
La présente Norme européenne décrit les caractéristiques des produits et comporte des modes opératoires d’essai, d’évaluation de conformité, de marquage et d’étiquetage.
La présente Norme européenne ne spécifie pas le niveau requis d’une propriété donnée devant être atteint par un produit pour en démontrer l’aptitude à l’emploi dans une application particulière. Les niveaux requis pour une application particulière sont à trouver dans les réglementations ou dans des normes non contradictoires.
La présente Norme européenne couvre l’utilisation des produits pour la conservation de la chaleur dans les bâtiments (climat froid ou tempéré) et une annexe informative fournit plus d’informations sur les performances du produit pour les applications à flux thermique descendant.

Foreword
This document (prEN 16863:2015) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 88 “Thermal
insulating materials and products”, the secretariat of which is held by DIN.
This document is currently submitted to the CEN Enquiry.
This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the
European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of EU Directive(s).
For relationship with EU Directive(s), see informative Annex ZA, which is an integral part of this document.
This European Standard is one of a series of standards for thermal insulation products used in buildings but
this European Standard may be used in other areas where appropriate.
The reduction in energy used and emissions produced during the installed life of insulation products exceeds
by far the energy used and emissions made during the production and disposal processes.
