Room heaters fired by solid fuel - Requirements and test methods

This European Standard specifies requirements relating to the design, manufacture, construction, safety and performance (efficiency and emission) instructions and marking together with associated test methods and test fuels for type testing residential roomheaters fired by solid fuel.
This Standard is applicable to non-mechanically fired appliances which are listed under categories 1a and 2a of Table 1. These appliances provide heat into the space where they are installed. Additionally, where fitted with a boiler, they also provide domestic hot water and/or central heating. These appliances may burn either solid mineral fuels, peat briquettes, natural or manufactured wood logs or be multi-fuel in accordance with the appliance manufacturer’s instructions.
This standard is not applicable to appliances with fan assisted combustion air.

Raumheizer für feste Brennstoffe - Anforderungen und Prüfungen

Diese Europäische Norm gilt für freistehende oder eingebaute Raumheizer für feste Brennstoffe, ohne funktionalen Änderungen, die mit Feuerraumtüren entweder geschlossen oder geschlossen und offen betrieben werden können und die in den Kategorien 1a und 2a in Tabelle 1 aufgeführt sind. Diese Europäische Norm ist nur für nicht mechanisch beschickte Feuerstätten der Kategorien 1a und 2a von Tabelle 1 anwendbar. Diese Europäische Norm beschreibt Anforderungen an Auslegung, Herstellung, Ausführung, Sicherheit und Leistungsvermögen (Wirkungsgrad und Emission) von Raumheizer für feste Brennstoffe (im Folgenden als "Feuerstätte(n)" bezeichnet) und deren Anleitungen. Weiterhin enthält diese Norm Festlegungen für die Konformitätsbewertung, das heißt Typprüfung (ITT) und werkseigene Produktionskontrolle (FCP) und die Kennzeichnung der Feuerstätten. Diese Feuerstätten beheizen den Aufstellungsraum. Sofern sie mit wasserführenden Bauteilen ausgestattet sind, liefern sie Heizwasser und/oder dienen der Zentralbeheizung. Diese Feuerstätten können entsprechend der Bedienungsanleitung des Herstellers entweder feste mineralische Brennstoffe, Torfbriketts, Holzscheite, Holzbriketts oder mehrere dieser Brennstoffe verfeuern. Diese Norm gilt nicht für Feuerstätten mit Verbrennungsluftgebläse oder mechanisch beschickte Feuerstätten.

Poêles à combustible solide - Exigences et méthodes d'essai

La présente Norme européenne est applicable aux poêles à combustible solide, indépendants ou encastrés, sans modification fonctionnelle, qui fonctionnent avec des portes foyères uniquement fermées, ou ouvertes et fermées, et qui sont énumérés sous les catégories 1a et 2a du Tableau 1. D'autre part, la présente Norme européenne n'est applicable qu'aux poêles dépourvus d’alimentation mécanique qui sont énumérés sous les catégories 1a et 2a du Tableau 1. La présente Norme européenne spécifie les exigences relatives à la conception, la fabrication, la construction, la sécurité et la performance (en termes de rendement et d'émission) des poêles à combustible solide (appelés ci-après « appareils ») et fournit des instructions les concernant. En outre, elle fournit des dispositions pour l'évaluation de la conformité, c'est-à-dire l'essai de type initial (ITT) et le contrôle de fabrication en usine (FPC) ainsi que pour le marquage de ces appareils. Ces appareils produisent de la chaleur dans l’espace où ils sont installés. De plus, lorsqu’ils sont équipés d’un bouilleur, ils produisent également de l’eau chaude à usage domestique et/ou du chauffage central. Ces appareils peuvent utiliser soit des combustibles minéraux solides, des briquettes de tourbe, des bûches de bois naturel ou reconstitué, soit plusieurs combustibles conformément aux instructions du fabricant. Cette norme ne s’applique pas aux appareils équipés d'un ventilateur pour l'alimentation en air de combustion ou aux appareils à alimentation mécanique.

1 Scope
This European Standard is applicable to freestanding or inset roomheaters fired by solid fuel, without
functional modification, that operate with fire doors either as closed only or as closed or open and
which are listed under categories 1a and 2a of Table 1. This European Standard is also only
applicable to non-mechanically fired roomheaters as listed under categories 1a and 2a of Table 1.
This European Standard specifies requirements relating to the design, manufacture, construction,
safety and performance (efficiency and emission) of roomheaters fired by solid fuel (hereafter referred
to as “appliance(s)”) and provides instructions for them. Furthermore, it also gives provisions for
evaluation of conformity i.e. initial type testing (ITT) and factory production control (FPC) and marking
of these appliances.
These appliances provide heat into the space where they are installed. Additionally, where fitted with
a boiler, they also provide domestic hot water and/or central heating. These appliances may burn
either solid mineral fuels, peat briquettes, natural or manufactured wood logs or be multi-fuel in
accordance with the appliance manufacturer’s instructions.
This standard is not applicable to appliances with fan assisted combustion air or appliances that are
mechanically fired.
