Introduction

In accordance with Article 7, of the Directive 2014/94/EU [1] the EU Member States have to bring into

force by 18 November 2016 the laws, regulations and administrative provisions necessary in order to

ensure that user information on the compatibility of their vehicles with the fuels or electricity

recharging points is provided in motor vehicle manuals, at refuelling and recharging points, as well as

on motor vehicles and in motor vehicle dealerships in their territory.

As specified in the Article, this information has to be based on labelling provisions of ESO standards

setting technical specifications of fuels. However, none of the labelling provisions of the existing

European Standards for fuel quality (such as EN 228 [2] for petrol and EN 590 [3] for diesel fuel)

includes a graphical expression that meets the requirements of the Directive.

In a letter to CEN of 26 August 2015, the European Commission requested the work of CEN/TC 441 to

aim at development and adoption of appropriate European Standard(-s) setting harmonized

compatibility labelling specifications for individual fuels placed on the market. These provisions should

include a graphical expression, including a colour coding scheme. The graphical expression should also

be in line with the following requirements of Article 7 of Directive 2014/94/EU:

a) to provide relevant, consistent and clear information as regards to those motor vehicles which can

be regularly fuelled with compatible fuels placed on the market,
b) to be simple and easy to understand;
c) to be able to be placed in a clearly visible manner:
1) on corresponding fuel pumps and their nozzles at refuelling points,

2) on or in the immediate proximity of fuel tanks’ filler caps for vehicles, recommended and

compatible with that fuel and in motor vehicle manuals.

CEN decided that it would develop a single standard laying down the systematics of the graphical

expression for the identification of fuel-vehicle compatibility that would cover a multitude of (existing

and future) market fuels. This would allow industry and governments to use this document as basis for

implementation of Directive 2014/94/EU. Also existing and future European Standards that need to set

requirements regarding labelling can refer to this Standard.

The development of this standard focused on vehicles placed on the market for the first time, which

does not preclude the application of this standard also to vehicles already in circulation.

This document is not intended to replace any existing quality, safety or performance recommendations,

marketing or branding communication currently featured in similar locations at re-fuelling points,

vehicle fuel caps or vehicle manuals.

1 Scope

This European Standard lays down harmonized identifiers for marketed liquid and gaseous fuels. The

requirements in this standard are to complement the informational needs of users regarding the

compatibility between the fuels and the vehicles that are placed on the market. The identifier is

intended to be visualized at dispensers and refuelling points, on vehicles, in motor vehicle dealerships

and in consumer manuals as described in this document.

Marketed fuels include for example petroleum-derived fuels, synthetic fuels, biofuels, natural gas,

liquefied petroleum gas, hydrogen and biogas and blends of the aforementioned delivered to mobile

applications.
2 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply.
2.1
compatibility
fuel/vehicle compatibility

possibility of the fuel to be regularly used in a vehicle without adverse effects on the performance

characteristics of the vehicle as declared by the vehicle manufacturer

Note 1 to entry: Usually, it is the components of the vehicle that are exposed to the fuel or the exhaust gases that

may show compatibility issues.
2.2
nozzle

mechanical system, fitted to the hose of the dispensing system, consisting of a filling nozzle body

Note 1 to entry: This definition is derived from EN 14678-3:2013, 3.8 [4].
2.3
filler cap
sealing mechanism of the fuel filling point on a vehicle
2.4
filler flap

area of vehicle bodywork that covers a filler cap and opens to provide access to the filler cap or provide

a fuel sealing mechanism for cap-less systems
2.5
identifier
graphical expression of compatibility consisting of shape and symbol
2.6
symbol
expression by a combination of letters, numbers or pictorials
2.7
vehicle
motor vehicle

transport modality that can be fuelled with a marketed fuel at a refuelling point

Note 1 to entry: Vessels are included herein, in line with [1].
---------------------- Page: 7 ----------------------
SIST EN 16942:2016
EN 16942:2016 (E)
2.8
dispenser
fuel pump
equipment through which a fuel is supplied to a transport modality
2.9
refuelling point
facility for the provision of any fuel through one or more dispensers

Note 1 to entry: In practice, terms like service station or filling station are also used.

3 Principle

The identifier laid down in this European Standard consists of a simple shape and symbol that is used to

assist consumers in identifying the compatibility of the fuel supplied at a refuelling point. It

complements European Standards for setting technical specifications of fuels and also for installation

and commissioning of refuelling points.

This European Standard defines for each harmonized labelling identifier the size, shape, colour and

other information of relevance for compatibility recognition, as well as the location of placement on the

refuelling points and near the vehicle fuel tank.

The labelling provisions, including those on the graphical expression are designed in such a way that

they can be adapted to fuels offered on the market for which currently no European Standard for setting

technical specifications of fuels exists.

This European Standard provides harmonized compatibility labelling across Europe and thus effectively

support the implementation of Article 7 of Directive 2014/94/EU [1] by the EU Member States. The

European Standard complements the informational needs of a vehicle user arriving at a refuelling point

as regards to the compatibility between a fuel and motor vehicle engine so that consumer can easily

distinguish amongst fuel types and grades (e.g. petrol, diesel, LPG, natural gas, etc.) and the

compatibility of t

Evropski predgovor

Ta dokument (EN 16942:2016) je pripravil tehnični odbor CEN/TC 441 "Označevanje goriv", katerega

sekretariat je v pristojnosti NEN.

Ta evropski standard mora dobiti status nacionalnega standarda bodisi z objavo istovetnega besedila

ali z razglasitvijo najpozneje do aprila 2017, nasprotujoče nacionalne standarde pa je treba razveljaviti

najpozneje do aprila 2017.

Opozoriti je treba na možnost, da je lahko nekaj elementov tega dokumenta predmet patentnih pravic.

CEN (in/ali CENELEC) ne prevzema odgovornosti za identifikacijo katerihkoli ali vseh takih patentnih

pravic.

Ta dokument podpira izvajanje evropske Direktive 2014/94/EU [1]. Ta dokument je bil pripravljen na

podlagi pisnih navodil, ki jih je Evropska komisija poslala CEN in CENELEC.

Skladno z notranjimi predpisi CEN-CENELEC morajo ta evropski standard prevzeti nacionalne

organizacije za standarde naslednjih držav: Avstrije, Belgije, Bolgarije, Cipra, Češke republike, Danske,

Estonije, Finske, Francije, Grčije, Hrvaške, Irske, Islandije, Italije, Latvije, Litve, Luksemburga,

Madžarske, Malte, Nekdanje jugoslovanske republike Makedonije, Nemčije, Nizozemske, Norveške,

SIST EN 16942 : 2019
Uvod

V skladu s 7. členom Direktive 2014/94/EU [1] morajo države članice EU do 18. novembra 2016 sprejeti

zakone, predpise in administrativne ukrepe, potrebne za zagotovitev, da se informacije za uporabnike

o združljivosti njihovih vozil z gorivom ali polnilnimi mesti za polnjenje z električno energijo navedejo v

navodilih za uporabo motornih vozil, na oskrbovalnih in polnilnih mestih, na motornih vozilih in v

prodajalnah motornih vozil na njihovem ozemlju.

Kot je določeno v tem členu, morajo te informacije temeljiti na določilih o označevanju standardov

evropskih organizacij za standardizacijo (ESO ), ki določajo tehnične specifikacije za goriva. Vendar pa

nobeno določilo o označevanju obstoječih evropskih standardov za kakovost goriva (kot sta EN 228 [2]

za bencin in EN 590 [3] za dizelsko gorivo) ne vključuje grafičnega prikaza, ki izpolnjuje zahteve

direktive.

V pismu CEN z dne 26. avgusta 2015 je Evropska komisija zahtevala, naj si CEN/TC 441 prizadeva za

razvoj in sprejetje ustreznega(-ih) evropskega(-ih) standarda(-ov), ki določa(-jo) usklajene specifikacije

o označevanju združljivosti za posamezna goriva, ki se dajejo na trg. Ta določila naj bi vključevala

grafični prikaz, vključno z barvno shemo za kodiranje. Grafični prikaz naj bi bil tudi v skladu z naslednjimi

zahtevami 7. člena Direktive 2014/94/EU:

a) da zagotavlja ustrezne, dosledne in jasne informacije o motornih vozilih, ki jih je mogoče redno

polniti z združljivimi gorivi, danimi na trg,
b) da ga je enostavno in zlahka razumeti,
c) da je nameščen tako, da je jasno viden:

1) na ustreznih točilnih napravah in točilnih pipah posameznih oskrbovalnih mest,

2) na pokrovih vseh rezervoarjev za gorivo motornih vozil, priporočenih za to gorivo in združljivih

z njim, oziroma v njihovi neposredni bližini ter v navodilih za uporabo motornih vozil.

CEN se je odločil, da bo razvil enoten standard, ki bo določal sistematiko grafičnega prikaza za

identifikacijo združljivosti vozila in goriva, ki bo zajemal številna (obstoječa in prihodnja) goriva na trgu.

To bi industriji in vladam omogočilo, da ta dokument uporabijo kot podlago za izvajanje Direktive

2014/94/EU. Tudi obstoječi in prihodnji evropski standardi, ki morajo določiti zahteve glede označevanja,

se lahko sklicujejo na ta standard.

Razvoj tega standarda se osredotoča na vozila, ki se prvič pojavijo na trgu, vendar uporaba standarda

ni izključena za vozila, ki so že na trgu.

Namen tega dokumenta ni, da nadomesti morebitna obstoječa priporočila glede kakovosti, varnosti ali

učinkovitosti, trženjska sporočila ali sporočila blagovne znamke, ki so trenutno prikazana na podobnih

lokacijah na oskrbovalnih mestih, pokrovih rezervoarja za gorivo vozila ali v navodilih za uporabo.

SIST EN 16942 : 2016
1 Področje uporabe

Ta evropski standard določa usklajene identifikacijske oznake za tekoča in plinasta goriva na trgu.

Zahteve v tem standardu dopolnjujejo informacije, ki jih potrebujejo uporabniki, o združljivosti goriv in

vozil, ki so dana na trg. Identifikacijska oznaka je namenjena uporabi na napravah za točenje in

oskrbovalnih mestih, na vozilih, na prodajnih mestih za motorna vozila ter v priročnikih za potrošnika,

kot je opisano v tem dokumentu.

Goriva na trgu vključujejo na primer goriva, pridobljena iz nafte, sintetična goriva, biogoriva, zemeljski

plin, utekočinjeni naftni plin, vodik in bioplin ter mešanice prej omenjenih goriv, ki se uporabljajo za

vožnjo.
2 Izrazi in definicije
V tem dokumentu se uporabljajo naslednji izrazi in definicije.
2.1
združljivost
združljivost goriva in vozila

možnost, da se gorivo redno uporablja v vozilu brez škodljivih učinkov na lastnosti obratovanja vozila,

kot jih je določil proizvajalec vozila

OPOMBA: Težave z združljivostjo se lahko pojavijo pri sestavnih delih vozila, ki so izpostavljeni gorivu ali izpušnim plinom.

2.2
točilna pipa

mehanski sistem, pritrjen na iztakalno cev točilne naprave, sestavljen iz izlivnega nastavka in

ustreznega ogrodja
OPOMBA: Ta definicija izhaja iz standarda EN 14678-3:2013, 3.8 [4].
2.3
pokrov rezervoarja za gorivo
tesnilni mehanizem mesta za polnjenje goriva na vozilu
2.4
vratca rezervoarja

območje na karoseriji vozila, ki pokriva pokrov rezervoarja za gorivo in ga je mogoče odpreti za dostop

do pokrova rezervoarja; pri nekaterih vozilih ta pokrov predstavlja že tesnilni mehanizem odprtine

rezervoarja
2.5
identifikacijska oznaka
grafični prikaz združljivosti goriva, ki ga sestavljata oblika in simbol
2.6
simbol
grafični prikaz s kombinacijo črk, številk ali slikovnih oblik
2.7
vozilo
motorno vozilo

prevozno sredstvo, ki ga je mogoče na oskrbovalnem mestu napolniti z gorivom, ki se daje na trg

OPOMBA: Plovila so v tem dokumentu zajeta v skladu z [1].
---------------------- Page: 7 ----------------------
SIST EN 16942 : 2019
2.8
naprava za točenje goriva
točilna naprava
oprema, kjer se gorivo dovaja v prevozno sredstvo
2.9
oskrbovalno mesto
postaja za oskrbo z gorivi z enim ali več točilnimi napravami

OPOMBA: V praksi se uporabljajo tudi izrazi, kot sta bencinski servis/črpalka ali črpalna postaja.

3 Načela

Identifikacijsko oznako, določeno v tem evropskem standardu, sestavljata preprosta oblika in simbol,

uporablja pa se kot pomoč potrošnikom pri ugotavljanju združljivosti dobavljenega goriva na

oskrbovalnem mestu. Dopolnjuje evropske standarde za določanje tehničnih specifikacij goriv ter za

namestitev in začetek delovanja oskrbovalnih mest.

Ta evropski standard za vse usklajene identifikacijske oznake za označevanje določa velikost, obliko,

barvo in druge informacije, ki so pomembne za prepoznavo združljivosti, prav tako pa tudi lokacijo

namestitve na oskrbovalnih mestih in v bližini rezervoarjev za gorivo na vozilih.

Določila o označevanju, vključno s tistimi o grafičnem prikazu, so zasnovana tako, da jih je mogoče

prilagoditi gorivom, ki so na voljo na trgu in zanje trenutno ni evropskega standarda, ki bi določal
