manual shall be made available.
For boilers which are operated with positive pressure in the combustion chamber, the values for the flue
gas resistance shown in Figure 3 shall be met or the corresponding technical documentation and/or

4.8 Samples for testing
The type test determines whether the individual boilers sizes of a type or range meet the requirements
laid down in this document. During the type test the boiler shall be representative of production in its
design and equipment.
For boilers in a product range which has the same constructional design it is sufficient to test only the
smallest and largest boiler provided the ratio in heat output of the smallest to the largest boiler is less
