Gas-fired domestic appliances producing hot water - Part 2: Assessment of energy consumption

This document is applicable to gas-fired appliances producing domestic hot water.
It applies to both instantaneous and storage tank appliances; waters-heaters and combination boilers that have:
— a heat input not exceeding 400 kW; and
— a hot water storage tank capacity (if any) not exceeding 2000 l.
In the case of combination boilers, with or without storage tank, domestic hot water production is integrated or coupled, the whole being marketed as a single unit.
The water heaters covered by the present standard are considered "conventional water heaters" as defined by the Transitional Methods (Commission Communication 2014/C 207/03) then in the calculation formula for the Annual Electricity Consumption (AEC), Qcor is equal to zero.
EN 13203-1 sets out in qualitative and quantitative terms the performance in delivery of domestic hot water for a selected variety of uses. It also gives a system for presenting the information to the user. The present document sets out a method for assessing the energy performance of the appliances. It defines a number of daily load profiles for each domestic hot water use, kitchen, shower, bath and a combination of these, together with corresponding test procedures, enabling the energy performances of different gas-fired appliances to be compared and matched to the needs of the user. Where other technologies are combined with a gas-fired boiler or a water heater to produce domestic hot water, specific parts of EN 13203 apply.

Gasgeräte für die häusliche Warmwasserbereitung - Teil 2: Bewertung des Energieverbrauchs

Dieses Dokument ist auf gasbefeuerte Geräte für die sanitäre Warmwasserbereitung anwendbar. Es gilt für sowohl Durchlauferhitzer als auch Warmwasserspeicher, Warmwasserbereiter sowie Kombikessel, die:
—   eine Wärmebelastung von höchstens 400 kW und
—   ein Warmwasser-Speichervolumen (sofern vorhanden) von höchstens 2 000 l haben.
Bei Kombikesseln mit oder ohne Speicher ist die sanitäre Warmwasserbereitung im Kessel eingebaut oder am Kessel angebaut, und das gesamte System wird als eine Einheit vertrieben.
Die von dieser Norm abgedeckten Warmwasserbereiter werden als „konventionelle Warmwasserbereiter“ angesehen, wie durch die „vorläufigen Methoden“ (Mitteilung der Kommission 2014/C 207/03) definiert; daher wird Qcor in der Formel zur Berechnung des jährlichen Stromverbrauchs (en: Annual Electricity Consumption, AEC), gleich null gesetzt.
Falls der Kessel mit einer internen oder externen passiven Abgas-Wärmerückgewinnungsanlage (en: passive flue heat recovery device, PFHRD) ausgerüstet ist, kann der Kesselwirkungsgrad mittels Anwendung von EN 13203 2:2022 in Verbindung mit EN 13203 7:2022 beurteilt werden. Im Falle einer PFHRD, die aufgrund der darin verbauten Technik in der Lage ist, während der Wärmeerzeugung für die Zentralheizung Energie aus den Abgasen zurückzugewinnen, um das sanitäre Warmwasser vorzuwärmen (indirekter Beitrag), gilt für die Beurteilung dieses indirekten Beitrags EN 13203 7:2022. EN 13203 2:2022 gilt für die Messung und Berechnung des direkten Wirkungsgrades (direkter Beitrag), während sich durch Kombination der nach EN 13203 7:2022 erhaltenen Messergebnisse der Gesamtwirkungsgrad (direkt und indirekt) berechnen lässt. EN 13203 1:2015 legt die Leistung bezüglich der Abgabe von sanitärem Warmwasser für eine Auswahl von Benutzungsarten qualitativ und quantitativ fest. Sie enthält zudem ein System zur Bereitstellung von Informationen für den Nutzer. Das vorliegende Dokument legt ein Verfahren zur Bewertung des Energieverhaltens der Geräte fest. Es legt einige tägliche Lastprofile für jede sanitäre Warmwasserverwendung in der Küche, zum Duschen und Baden sowie für Kombinationen dieser Verwendungsarten und die entsprechenden Prüfverfahren fest, mit denen sich das Energieverhalten unterschiedlicher gasbefeuerter Geräte vergleichen und auf die Bedürfnisse des Nutzers ausrichten lässt. Werden andere Technologien mit einem gasbefeuerten Kessel oder einem Warmwasserbereiter für die sanitäre Warmwasserbereitung kombiniert, so gelten die jeweils zutreffenden Teile von EN 13203.

-   un débit calorifique inférieur ou égal à 400 kW ; et
-   une capacité du ballon d’eau chaude (le cas échéant) inférieure ou égale à 2 000 l.
Dans le cas des chaudières mixtes, avec ou sans ballon, la production d’eau chaude sanitaire est intégrée ou accolée, l’ensemble étant commercialisé comme une seule unité.
Les chauffe-eau couverts par la présente norme sont considérés comme des « chauffe-eau conventionnels » tels que définis par les méthodes transitoires de la Communication 2014/C 207/03 de la Commission ; pour ces chauffe-eau, dans la formule de calcul de la consommation annuelle d’électricité (AEC), le terme de correction Qcor est égal à zéro.
Les chaudières équipées d’un dispositif passif de récupération de la chaleur dans les produits de combustion (PFHRD), interne ou externe, peuvent être évaluées en appliquant l’EN 13203-2:2022 en combinaison avec l’EN 13203-7:2022. Dans le cas d’un PFHRD, où la technologie a la capacité de récupérer l’énergie des gaz de combustion lors de la production de chauffage central pour pouvoir préchauffer l’eau chaude sanitaire (contribution indirecte), pour évaluer cette contribution indirecte l’EN 13203-7:2022 s’applique. L’EN 13203-2:2022 est applicable pour mesurer et calculer l’efficacité directe (contribution directe) tandis que la combinaison des résultats de mesurage de l’EN 13203-7:2022 permet de calculer l’efficacité globale (directe et indirecte). L’EN 13203-1:2015 définit, en termes qualitatifs et quantitatifs, la performance en puisage d’eau chaude sanitaire pour une variété sélectionnée d’usages. Elle fournit également un système pour présenter les informations à l’utilisateur. Le présent document définit une méthode pour évaluer les performances énergétiques des appareils. Il spécifie quelques profils de soutirage journaliers pour chaque utilisation d’eau chaude sanitaire, pour la cuisine, la douche, le bain et une combinaison de ces utilisations, ainsi que les modes opératoires d’essai correspondants, ce qui permet de comparer les performances énergétiques des différents appareils utilisant les combustibles gazeux et de les adapter aux besoins de l’utilisateur. Des parties spécifiques de l’EN 13203 s’appliquent lorsque d’autres technologies sont associées à une chaudière ou un chauffe-eau utilisant les combustibles gazeux pour produire de l’eau chaude sanitaire.

1 Scope
This document is applicable to gas-fired appliances producing domestic hot water. It applies to both
instantaneous and storage tank appliances; waters-heaters and combination boilers that have:
— a heat input not exceeding 400 kW;
— a hot water storage tank capacity (if any) not exceeding 2 000 l.
In the case of combination boilers, with or without storage tank, domestic hot water production is
integrated or coupled, the whole being marketed as a single unit.
The water heaters covered by the present standard are considered “conventional water heaters” as
defined by the Transitional Methods (Commission Communication 2014/C 207/03) then in the
calculation formula for the Annual Electricity Consumption (AEC), Q is equal to zero.
cor
In case of the boiler is equipped with an internal or external Passive Flue Heat Recovery Device (PFHRD),
the boiler efficiency can be assessed by applying EN 13203-2:2022 in combination with
EN 13203-7:2022. In case of a PFHRD, where the technology has the ability to recover energy out of flue
gasses during central heating production to be able to preheat the domestic hot water (indirect
contribution), to assess this indirect contribution EN 13203-7:2022 applies. EN 13203-2:2022 is
applicable for measuring and calculating the direct efficiency (direct contribution) while combining the
measuring results of EN 13203-7:2022 the overall efficiency (direct and indirect) can be calculated.
EN 13203-1:2015 sets out in qualitative and quantitative terms the performance in delivery of domestic
hot water for a selected variety of uses. It also gives a system for presenting the information to the user.
The present document sets out a method for assessing the energy performance of the appliances. It
specifies a few daily load profiles for each domestic hot water use, kitchen, shower, bath and a
combination of these, together with corresponding test procedures, enabling the energy performances of
different gas-fired appliances to be compared and matched to the needs of the user. Where other
technologies are combined with a gas-fired boiler or a water heater to produce domestic hot water,
specific parts of EN 13203 apply.

4.2 Measurement uncertainties
4.2.1 General
Except where otherwise stated in the clauses describing the tests, the uncertainties of measurements
carried out shall not be greater than the maximum uncertainties indicated below.
The standard deviations shall be evaluated taking into account the various sources of uncertainty:
contribution from the instrument, repeatability, calibration, ambient conditions, etc.
— water flow rate: ± 1 %;
— gas flow rate: ± 1 %;
— time: ± 0,2 s;
— temperatures:
— ambient: ± 1 K,
— water: ± 0,5 K,
— gas: ± 0,5 K;
— gas pressure: ± 1 %;
— gas calorific value: ± 1 %;
— gas density: ± 0,5 %;
— electrical energy: ± 2 %.
The stated measurement uncertainties relate to individual measurements. For measurements that
combine several individual measurements, smaller uncertainties on the individual measurements may
be necessary to ensure a total uncertainty within ± 2 % under the steady-state conditions as specified by
4.2.2.
These uncertainties correspond to two standard deviations (2σ).
4.2.2 Steady-state conditions
Steady-state operating conditions are regarded as established when the appliance operates for sufficient
time to reach thermal stabilization.
To reach the steady-state the water temperature at the outlet of the appliance shall not vary by more
than ± 0,5 K.
NOTE This condition can be reached with a gas which is different from the reference gas, provided that the
appliance is supplied with the reference gas for at least 5 min before the requirements are verified.
4.3 Test conditions
4.3.1 General
Except where otherwise stated, the appliance is tested under the following conditions.
For combination gas boiler, the tests shall be carried out only in summer mode as defined in 3.3, and the
appliance shall be set in summer mode.

This clause specifies the test methods to be employed in determining the energy consumption of
appliances.
5.2 Load profiles
All patterns specify a 24 h measurement cycle and within that cycle the starting times and the total energy
content (in kWh equivalent of hot water tapped) of each draw-off are specified.
Furthermore, the draw-off can be characterized in two ways, either “basin” type draw-off, versus
“continuous flow” draw-off.
The aim of the “basin” type is to arrive at an average temperature of the tub, so all supplied energy can
be considered useful from the very beginning of the draw-off (minimum useful temperature rise is 0 K).
The temperature rise (ΔT ) to be achieved during tapping, shall be 30 K for floor cleaning and bath and
p
45 K for the dish washes.
The aim of the “continuous flow” type is to use only the water equal and above a fixed useful temperature
rise (ΔT ). For the shower, household cleaning and large draw-offs a temperature rise of 30 K shall be
m
reached before counting the useful energy. For the small draw-offs a temperature rise (ΔT ) of 15 K shall
m
be reached.
NOTE 1 The temperature rises (in K) based on 10 °C inlet water temperature stated above are equivalent to the
temperatures (in °C) given by the load profiles tables in Regulations n° 811/2013, n° 812/2013, n° 813/2013 and
n° 814/2013. The tapping flow rates used to perform the different draw-offs of each of the eight load profiles are
specified by Tables 1 to 8.

In the load profiles, the requirements for water flow rate and temperatures are based on the delivery at
the tap in a mix of hot and cold water. Under the conditions of the initial adjustment, the appliance itself
produces hot water with a minimum temperature rise of 45 K. For the load profile XS the minimum
temperature setting shall be equal to or greater than 35°C (ΔT 25 K above water inlet temperature).
To fulfil the requirements stated in Tables 1 to 8 mixing hot water from the appliance with cold water of
10 °C at the tap is allowed either by using a mixing device (see examples at Figures B.1 and B.5) or by

1 Scope
This document is applicable to gas-fired appliances producing domestic hot water. It applies to both
instantaneous and storage tank appliances; waters-heaters and combination boilers that have:
— a heat input not exceeding 400 kW; and
— a hot water storage tank capacity (if any) not exceeding 2000 l.
In the case of combination boilers, with or without storage tank, domestic hot water production is integrated
or coupled, the whole being marketed as a single unit.
The water heaters covered by the present document are considered “conventional water heaters” as defined
by the Transitional Methods (Commission Communication 2014/C 207/03) then in the calculation formula for
the Annual Electricity Consumption (AEC), Q is equal to zero.
cor
EN 13203-1 sets out in qualitative and quantitative terms the performance in delivery of domestic hot water
for a selected variety of uses. It also gives a system for presenting the information to the user. The present
document sets out a method for assessing the energy performance of the appliances. It defines a number of
daily load profiles for each domestic hot water use, kitchen, shower, bath and a combination of these, together
with corresponding test procedures, enabling the energy performances of different gas-fired appliances to be
compared and matched to the needs of the user. Where other technologies are combined with a gas-fired boiler
or a water heater to produce domestic hot water, specific parts of EN 13203 apply.

The stated measurement uncertainties relate to individual measurements. For measurements that combine a
number of individual measurements, smaller uncertainties on the individual measurements may be necessary
to ensure a total uncertainty within ± 2 % under the steady-state conditions as defined by 4.2.2.
These uncertainties correspond to two standard deviations (2σ).
4.2.2 Steady-state conditions
Steady-state operating conditions are regarded as established when the appliance operates for sufficient time
to reach thermal stabilization.
To reach the steady-state the water temperature at the outlet of the appliance shall not vary by more
than ± 0,5 K.
NOTE This condition can be reached with a gas which is different from the reference gas, provided that the appliance
is supplied with the reference gas for at least 5 min before the requirements are verified.

4.3.1 General
Except where otherwise stated, the appliance is tested under the following conditions.
For combination gas boiler, the tests shall be carried out only in summer mode as defined in 3.3, and the
appliance shall be set in summer mode.
For all tests defined by this standard, the same adjustment of the appliance shall be maintained.
The load profile used for the measurement shall be the one declared according to the technical instruction of
the appliance (see also Annex C).
The tests shall be performed in the setting in which the appliance is delivered (out of the box-mode), and which
is documented as such in the technical instructions.
If there are temporary user's settings (automatically self-resetting within 24 h), these shall not be active.

4.3.2 Test room
The appliance shall be installed in a well-ventilated, draught-free room (air speed less than 0,5 m/s).
The appliance shall be protected from direct solar radiation and radiation from heat generators.
4.3.3 Water supply
For the tests:
— the domestic water pressure is the inlet water pressure measured as close as possible to the appliance (see
example at Figure B.2);
— the inlet and outlet temperatures of the domestic water shall be measured in the centre of the flow and as
close as possible to the appliance (see examples at Figure B.3 and Figure B.4) and always upstream of the
electro-valve (tap).
The inlet temperatures shall be measured immediately upstream of the water inlet connection. Except where
otherwise stated, the outlet temperatures shall be measured immediately downstream of the outlet connection
or, in the case of an appliance with spout delivery, by means of an immersed temperature measuring device,
e.g. a u-tube fitted at the outlet of a tube of the same length as the minimum length of the spout normally
supplied together with the appliance.
Water temperatures shall be measured with a rapid response temperature sensor.
4.3.4 Initial adjustment of the appliance
The appliance shall be installed in accordance with the installation instructions.
The heat input shall be adjusted to within ± 2 % of the nominal domestic hot water heat input.
The initial adjustment of the appliance water temperature (T ) shall be as follows (see Figure A.1 and
d
Figure A.2):
a) Appliances with an adjustable temperature: the tests shall be carried out at a temperature not greater than
65 °C, with a temperature increase equal or greater than 45 K above the water inlet temperature. For the
load profile XS the minimum temperature setting shall be equal to or greater than 35°C (∆T 25 K above
water inlet temperature).
b) Appliances with a fixed temperature: the tests shall be carried out at the temperature specified in the
appliance documentation, with a temperature increase equal or greater than 45 K above the water inlet
temperature. For the load profile XS the minimum temperature setting shall be equal to or greater than
35°C (∆T 25 K above water inlet temperature)
NOTE The test conditions of 4.3.1 are applicable.
The same conditions of initial adjustment stated in the appliance documentation shall be used for all the tests.
These conditions shall be included in the test report.
4.3.5 Conditions for the determination of the maximum load profile
The measurement of the domestic hot water efficiency shall be performed with the maximum load profile or
the one just below this load profile:
a) Instantaneous appliances shall be set to the nominal heat input as stated on the data plate. If the user
instructions specify that it is possible to adjust the outlet temperature, this temperature shall be set to the
maximum possible value not exceeding 65°C.

b) Storage appliances shall be set to the nominal heat input as stated on the data plate. If the user instructions
specify that different modes are possible to be selected, the one that is able to store more energy and that
delivers more hot water during a 24 hours period shall be used.
NOTE 1 See Annex C (informative).
NOTE 2 In case of declared maximal load profile 3XL or 4XL the load profile for testing should be XXL.
The load profile as used for the domestic hot water performance test shall be stated in the user instructions.
4.3.6 Electrical supply
The appliance shall be supplied with the nominal voltage stated in the installation instructions.
5 Determination of the energy consumption of the appliance
5.1 General
This clause defines the test methods to be employed in determining the energy consumption of appliances.
5.2 Load profiles
All patterns define a 24 h measurement cycle and within that cycle the starting times and the total energy
content (in kWh equivalent of hot water tapped) of each draw-off are defined.
Furthermore, the draw-off can be characterized in two ways, either “basin” type draw-off versus “continuous
flow” draw-off.
The aim of the “basin” type is to arrive at an average temperature of the tub, so all supplied energy can be
considered useful from the very beginning of the draw-off (minimum useful temperature rise is 0 K). The
temperature rise (ΔTp) to be achieved during tapping, shall be 30 K for floor cleaning and bath and 45 K for the
dish washes.
The aim of the “continuous flow” type is to use only the water equal and above a fixed useful temperature rise
(ΔT ). For the shower, household cleaning and large draw-offs a temperature rise of 30 K shall be reached
m
before counting the useful energy. For the small draw-offs a temperature rise (ΔT ) of 15 K shall be reached.
m
NOTE 1 The temperature rises (in K) based on 10 °C inlet water temperature stated above are equivalent to the
temperatures (in °C) given by the load profiles tables in Regulations n° 811/2013, n° 812/2013, n° 813/2013 and n°
814/2013. The tapping flow rates used to perform the different draw-offs of each of the eight load profiles are defined by
Tables 1 to 8.
In the load profiles, the requirements for water flow rate and temperatures are based on the delivery at the tap
in a mix of hot and cold water. Under the conditions of the initial adjustment, the appliance itself produces hot
water with a minimum temperature rise of 45 K. For the load profile XS the minimum temperature setting shall
be equal to or greater than 35°C (∆T 25 K above water inlet temperature).
To fulfil the requirements stated in Tables 1 to 8 mixing hot water from the appliance with cold water of 10 °C
at the tap is allowed either by using a mixing device (see examples at Figures B.1 and B.5) or by recalculating
the appliance flow rate (D ) according to the following formula:
