EN 676:2003 (E)
Introduction
This European Standard is primarily intended for automatic forced draught gas burners having a combustion air
fan, operated with gaseous fuels, and intended to be marketed as a complete assembly.
EN 437 sets out a system of classification of appliances into categories defined according to the gases and
pressures for which they are designed.
Such a system of classification, when applied to forced draught burners, can lead to difficulties in defining the
precise category to which a particular burner should be allocated. For example many burners are designed to
operate on a wide range of fuel gases with little or no modification other than adjustment of air supply.
The technical committee responsible for the standard decided that the following appliance categories for forced
draught burners should apply:
single categories: I for natural gas and I for liquefied petroleum gas;
2R 3R
dual category: II for natural and liquefied petroleum gas.
2R /3R
All the burners of this standard marked with these categories are commissioned on site and the measured values
are recorded in a commissioning report.
However it should be noted that the Gas Appliance Directive requires the specification of the type of gas and the
supply pressure used as well as the burner category.
Forced draught gas burners according to this standard are often used in industrial applications. The safety
principles are the same as for forced draught gas burners used for household/commercial applications. Industrial
forced draught gas burners however should operate safely in their industrial environment and the risks involved can
differ from those for household applications. These industrial forced draught gas burners can be characterized by
the ability to withstand industrial environmental influences, like moisture, high temperature, electrical and magnetic
phenomena, vibrations, etc.
Principal requirements for installation and construction of gas burners and industrial thermal processing are
covered by EN 746-family.
Special requirements for forced draught burners for industrial premises will be given as a note with the addition
"Industrial application".
Further information and application limitation for EN 676 forced draught burners which are used for industrial
application are given in informative annex I
