In both cases, the thermal conductivity values shall be determined by the manufacturer and verified in accordance with EN ISO 13787. They shall be declared by the manufacturer according to measuring standards mentioned above covering the product service temperature range. The following conditions apply:  the measured values shall be expressed with three significant figures;  the declared thermal conductivity curve shall be given as a limit curve, defined in EN ISO 13787;  the value of the declared thermal conductivity, λD, shall be rounded upwards to the nearest 0,001

This shall be used as a reference for the verification of the declaration. When thermal conductivity is declared as table derived from the equation, rounding upwards to the next 0,001 W/(m·K) has to be done for the full range of the thermal conductivity.

This test shall not be performed when the more severe test, described in 4.3.2 is used. 4.2.4 Reaction to fire of the product as placed on the market 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 This classification is compulsory and always included in the CE marking label. EN 13501-1:2007, Table 1, is applicable to products applied to flat surfaces or to curved surfaces with a diameter greater than 300 mm. If a flat product which has a classification according to EN 13501-1:2007, Table 1, is used in a linear application it does not require further classification.

EN 14304:2009+A1:2013 (E) 12 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. 4.2.5 Durability characteristics 4.2.5.1 General The appropriate durability characteristics have been considered and are covered in 4.2.5.2, 4.2.5.3 and 4.2.5.4. 4.2.5.2 Durability of reaction to fire against ageing/degradation and high temperature The reaction to fire performance of FEF products does not change with time or when subjected to the declared maximum service temperature. 4.2.5.3 Durability of thermal resistance against ageing/degradation The thermal conductivity of FEF products does not change with time. This is covered by 4.2.1 thermal conductivity, 4.2.2 dimensions and tolerances and 4.2.3 dimensional stability or 4.3.2 maximum service temperature (dimensional stability). 4.2.5.4 Durability of thermal resistance against high temperature The thermal conductivity of FEF products does not change with time or when subjected to the declared maximum service temperature. This is covered by 4.3.2 maximum service temperature (dimensional stability). 4.3 For specific applications 4.3.1 General If there is no requirement for a property described in 4.3 for a product in use, then that property does not need to be determined and declared by the manufacturer. 4.3.2 Maximum service temperature The maximum service temperature, ST(+), for sheets and rolls shall be determined in accordance with EN 14706. For tubes it shall be determined in accordance with EN 14707 respectively.
At the maximum service temperature, ST(+), the mean value of relative change in thickness (reduction), ∆εd shall not exceed 7 %. The maximum service temperature, ST(+), shall be declared below 100 °C in steps of not less than 5 °C and above 100 °C in steps of not less than 10 °C. 4.3.3 Minimum service temperature The manufacturer of an insulation material can choose which minimum service temperature he intends to declare for his product.
This minimum service temperature does not represent any specific physical property and can not be determined by any single standardized test method.
If a minimum service temperature is declared by the manufacturer the following physical properties in line with European test standards have to be declared at the declared minimum service temperature:
a) Thermal conductivity as a function of temperature;
SIST EN 14304:2010+A1:2013



EN 14304:2009+A1:2013 (E) 13 b) Coefficient of thermal expansion as a function of temperature (see Annex B); c) Tensile strength and/or compressive strength and Young's modulus as a function of temperature as agreed between the parties.
Other physical properties may be agreed upon by the concerned parties in addition.
Using these temperature dependent physical data, the suitability of any specific insulation can be estimated at a given low operational temperature for industrial installations in relation to application related design features.
A low operational temperature cannot be below the minimum service temperature. The minimum service temperature, ST(-), shall be declared in levels with steps of 10 °C. Minimum service temperature within the scope of this standard but above 0 °C need not be tested. 4.3.4 Water absorption Short term water absorption by partial immersion, Wp, shall be determined in accordance with EN 1609 for sheets and rolls or by EN 13472 for tubes. Tests shall be run with specimens of ≥ 15 mm thickness from one sample each being representative for flat products and tubes. No te
