Thermal insulation products for buildings - In-situ formed loose fill cellulose (LFCI) products - Part 2: Specification for the installed products

This European Standard specifies requirements for in-situ formed loose-fill cellulose insulation (LFCI) products when installed as thermal insulation into walls, floors, galleries, roofs, lofts and ceilings. This Part 2 is a specification for the installation checks for the installed products.It specifies the checks and tests to be used for the declarations made by the installer of the product. This European Standard does not specify the required level of all properties to be achieved by a product to demonstrate fitness for purpose in a particular application. The required levels are to be found in regulations or non-conflicting standards. Products with a declared thermal conductivity at 10 °C (mean temperature) greater than 0,060 W/(m × K) or a declared thermal resistance lower than 0,25 m2 × K/W are not covered by this European Standard. This European Standard does not cover factory made cellulose mats, bats or quilts intended to be used for the insulation of buildings or in-situ cellulose products for the insulation of building equipment and industrial installations. Nor does it specify performance requirements.

Diese Europäische Norm legt Anforderungen für an der Verwendungsstelle hergestellte Produkte aus Zellulosedämmstoff (LFCI) fest, die als Wärmedämmung in Wände, Fußböden, Galerien, Dächer, Dachgeschosse und Decken eingebaut werden.
Der vorliegende Teil 2 ist eine Spezifikation für die Überprüfung der eingebauten Produkte.
Hierin werden auch die Kontrollen und Prüfungen festgelegt, die für die Erklärungen durch den Verarbeiter der Produkte anzuwenden sind.
Diese Europäische Norm legt keine erforderlichen Leistungsstufen für alle Eigenschaften fest, die ein Produkt für den Nachweis der Gebrauchstauglichkeit in einer bestimmten Anwendung erreichen muss. Die erforder-lichen Stufen können Regelwerken oder nicht entgegenstehenden Normen entnommen werden.

Diese Europäische Norm gilt weder für werkseitig hergestellte Zelluloseprodukte für die Wärmedämmung von Gebäuden, die in Form von Matten oder Platten in Verkehr gebracht werden, noch für an der Verwendungsstelle hergestellte Zellulosedämmprodukte für die Wärmedämmung von haus  und betriebstechnischen Anlagen. Sie legt auch keine Leistungsanforderungen fest.

Produits isolants thermiques destinés aux applications du bâtiment - Isolation thermique formée en place à base de cellulose (LFCI) - Partie 2: Spécifications des produits mis en oeuvre

La présente Norme européenne spécifie les exigences pour les produits d'isolation formés en place à base de cellulose (LFCI) lorsqu'ils sont mis en œuvre en tant qu'isolants thermiques dans les murs, les sols, les galeries, les toits, les combles et les plafonds.
La présente partie 2 constitue une spécification des vérifications d'installation pour les produits mis en œuvre.
Elle spécifie également les contrôles et les méthodes d'essai à utiliser pour les déclarations faites par l'installateur du produit.
La présente Norme européenne ne spécifie pas le niveau requis de toutes les propriétés nécessaires pour qu'un produit démontre son aptitude à l'emploi dans une application particulière. Les niveaux requis figurent dans les réglementations ou normes non contradictoires.
Les produits ayant une conductivité thermique à 10 °C (température moyenne) supérieure à 0,060 W/(m  K) ou une résistance thermique déclarée inférieure à 0,25 m2  K/W ne sont pas couverts par la présente Norme européenne.
La présente Norme européenne ne couvre pas les nappes, rouleaux ou panneaux fabriqués en usine destinés à l'isolation des bâtiments ou les produits à base de cellulose formés en place pour l'isolation de l'équipement du bâtiment et les installations industrielles. Elle ne spécifie pas non plus d'exigences de performance.

Toplotnoizolacijski proizvodi za stavbe - Razsuti celulozni proizvodi (LFCI) za oblikovanje na mestu vgradnje - 2. del: Specifikacija za vgrajene proizvode

Ta evropski standard določa zahteve za razsute celulozne izolacijske proizvode (LFCI) za oblikovanje na mestu vgradnje, ko se uporabljajo za toplotno izolacijo sten, tal, galerij, streh, podstrešij in stropov. Ta 2. del je specifikacija za preglede namestitve nameščenih proizvodov. Določa preglede in preskuse, na podlagi katerih monter izdelka poda izjave. Ta evropski standard ne določa zahtevane ravni vseh lastnosti, ki jo mora proizvod doseči, da se dokaže njegova primernost za namen v posamezni vrsti uporabe. Zahtevane ravni so določene v uredbah ali standardih, ki niso v nasprotju s tem standardom. Proizvodi z deklarirano toplotno prevodnostjo pri 10 °C (povprečna temperatura), višjo od 0,060 W/(m×K), ali deklarirano toplotno upornostjo, nižjo od 0,25 m2×K/W, niso zajeti v tem evropskem standardu. Ta evropski standard ne zajema tovarniških celuloznih podlog, kopren ali polnil za izolacijo stavb, ali razsutih celuloznih proizvodov za oblikovanje na mesto vgradnje za izolacijo opreme stavb in industrijskih naprav. Prav tako ne določa zahtev glede lastnosti.

EN 15101-2:2013 (E) 4 Foreword This document (EN 15101-2:2013) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 88 “Thermal insulating materials and products”, the secretariat of which is held by DIN. This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by March 2014, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by March 2014. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. CEN [and/or CENELEC] shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. This European Standard consists of two parts which form a package. The first part, which is the harmonised part, satisfying the mandate and the Construction Products Directive (CPD) and is the basis for the CE marking, covers the products which are placed on the market. The second part, which is the non-harmonised part, covers the specification for the installation checks for the installed products. Part 1 has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the European Free Trade Association, and supports the essential requirements of EU Directives. Attention is drawn to the need to take into account any complementary member state rules (e.g. installation rules) which together with this European Standard ensures the fitness for purpose of the installed product. This European Standard is one of a series of standards that include mineral wool, expanded clay, expanded perlite, exfoliated vermiculite, polyurethane/polyisocyanurate, cellulose and bound expanded polystyrene in-situ formed insulation products used in buildings, but this 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. According to the CEN-CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organisations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey and the United Kingdom.
