EN 15715:2009 (E) 5 Foreword This document (EN 15715:2009) 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of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by May 2010, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by August 2011. 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 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 89/106/EEC. For relationship with EU Directive 89/106/EEC, see informative Annex ZA, which is an integral part of this document. In pursuance of the mandate M/103 given to CEN by the European Commission and the European Free Trade Association, CEN/TC 88 had prepared a package of European Standards which was published in 2001. The aspect of instructions for mounting and fixing for reaction to fire testing not treated at that time is now being dealt within this European Standard. This European Standard supports a series of product standards for thermal insulating materials and products which derive from the Council Directive of 21 December 1988 on the approximation of laws, regulations and administrative provisions of the Member States relating to construction products (Directive 89/106/EEC) through the consideration of the essential requirements. This European Standard provides instructions for mounting and fixing for reaction to fire testing procedure for factory made thermal insulation products in building, building equipment and industrial installations.
CEN/TC 88 have proposed to set the date of withdrawal (dow) of national standards which conflict with this European Standard 21 months after availability. According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom.

EN 15715:2009 (E) 6 The moment this European Standard will have passed the CEN Formal Vote, subsequent alignments will have to be included in the relevant standards EN 13162 to EN 13171 as amendment:
Clause TitleAlignment4.2.xxa) Reaction to fire Addition to Title: of the product as placed on the market New text: Reaction to fire classification of the product, as placed on the market, shall be determined in accordance with EN 13501-1 and the basic Mounting and Fixing rules given in EN 15715:2009.
NOTE 1
This classification is compulsory and always included in the CE Marking label.
Detailed information about the test conditions and the field of application of the classification as stated in the reaction to fire classification report shall be given in the manufacturer's literature.
Manufacturers declaring Euroclass A1 without further test shall demonstrate by testing in accordance with EN 13820 that the products do not contain more than 1,0 % by weight of organic matter.
NOTE 2
The commission decision 96/603/EC of 4 October 1996 amended by the commission Decision 00/605/EC of 26 September 2000 gives the list of products to be considered as reaction to fire class Euroclass A1 without the need for testing.
4.3.xx a)
New Clause Title: Reaction to fire of product in standardized assemblies simulating end-use applications. Text: Reaction to fire classification of products in standardized assemblies simulating end-use applications excluding pipe insulation, shall be determined in accordance with EN 13501-1 and the basic Mounting and Fixing rules given in EN 15715:2009.
This classification offers the opportunity to give a complementary and optional declaration on reaction to fire for standard test configurations of assemblies which include the insulation product.
The number of the selected test configuration of assembly (Table 5 of EN 15715:2009) which is used in the test shall be quoted with the Euroclass.
Detailed information about the test conditions and the field of application of the classification as stated in the reaction to fire classification report shall be given in the manufacturer's literature.

Clause 8 by:
Products conforming to this standard shall be marked clearly, either on the product or on the label or on the packaging, with the following information:
 product name or other identifying characteristic;  name or identifying mark of the manufacturer or his authorised representative;
 address of the manufacturer or his authorised representative;
 shift or time of production or traceability code;
 reaction to fire class of the product as placed on the market.
This classification shall be identified with the designation "product" after the classification.
If tests on standardised assemblies have been performed according to Clause 6 of EN 15715:2009, then the reaction to fire classification shall be added and identified with the designation "standardised assembly no. x" after the classification. This information shall be kept distinct from the CE marking.
The number of the standardised assembly is taken from Table 5 of EN 15715:2009. Reference to manufacturer's literature (ML) for further information:
 declared thermal resistance;
 declared thermal conductivity;
 nominal thickness;
 designation code as given in Clause 6;  nominal length;  nominal width;  type of facing, if any;  number of pieces and area in the package, as appropriate.
NOTE : For CE marking and labelling see ZA.3.
