Overview

EN 12952-18:2012 (CEN) defines the required organisation and content of operating instructions for water-tube boilers and auxiliary installations as covered by EN 12952‑1. Its objective is to ensure that manufacturers supply information that enables safe commissioning, operation and maintenance of the boiler equipment during its intended life, taking into account intended use, reasonably foreseeable misuse and residual hazards.

Key topics and requirements

The standard sets minimum content and structure expectations for boiler operating instructions. Major technical topics include:

  • Manufacturer and product identification: company data, year of manufacture, product ID and EC declarations where applicable.
  • Scope and user information: intended use, user groups, required operator qualifications and explanations of symbols/abbreviations.
  • Plant and process data (Clause 5.3): system description, drawings (P&ID, schematic flow diagrams), design data, hydrostatic test pressure, performance and process parameters, control and safety devices, alarms, interfaces and loads.
  • Operation-related aspects (Clause 5.4): installation/assembly, start-up and shutdown procedures (cold/warm/hot starts), normal and unattended operation limits, troubleshooting, inspections, sampling/analysis, maintenance, repairs, preservation and dismantling.
  • Safety and hazard communication: residual hazards, emergency measures, personal protective equipment, warning signage and prohibitions.
  • Organisation and clarity (Clause 5.2): clear sequences, unambiguous instructions, consistent units and set values, well-structured figures and tables.
  • Annex A (informative): recommended sections (safety notes, system description, transport/storage, start‑up, operation, tests and maintenance).

EN 12952‑18 advises tailoring the level of detail to the manufacturer’s scope of supply (pressure equipment alone, or pressure equipment plus auxiliary plant such as motors, pumps and fans).

Practical applications and users

This standard is used to:

  • Ensure that delivered boilers include comprehensive, compliant operating instructions
  • Reduce operational risk by providing clear start-up, shut-down and emergency procedures
  • Support operator training, maintenance planning and regulatory compliance

Typical users:

  • Boiler manufacturers and vendors preparing documentation
  • Plant operators, shift engineers and maintenance teams
  • Safety managers and competent persons responsible for boiler operation
  • Third‑party inspection bodies and compliance assessors
  • Procurement and commissioning engineers specifying documentation in contracts
