Rubber materials for seals and diaphragms for gas appliances and gas equipment

This document specifies requirements and associated test methods for rubber materials used in gas installations, gas equipment and gas appliances in contact with 1st, 2nd and 3rd family combustible gases as classified in EN 437:2018, additionally LPG, bio methane and bio LPG, in the same quality, are covered. It also establishes a classification based on temperature range and hardness. This document is applicable to materials from which homogeneous seals and homogeneous or reinforced diaphragms are manufactured.
Since the dimensions and shape of the components differ from those of standard test pieces taken from sheet material as used for type testing of the rubber materials according to this document, tolerances have been made in the requirements specified by Annex A for the components with respect to those specified for standard test pieces.
The range of operating temperatures covered by this document is –40 °C to +150 °C.
For applications with potential condensation, this document is not applicable for silicon rubber, e.g. above 200 hPa (200 mbar) nominal pressure or at temperatures below 0 °C with 3rd family gases.

European foreword
This document (EN 549:2019/prA1:2022) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 208
“Elastomeric seals for joints in pipework and pipelines”, the secretariat of which is held by BSI.
This document is currently submitted to the CEN Enquiry.
This amendment adds voluntary tests for sealing materials regarding resistance to gas - change of
volume, resistance to condensate/liquid phase of combustible gases – change of volume and stress
relaxation in compression.
This document has been prepared under a Standardization Request given to CEN by the European
Commission and the European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of EU
Directive(s) / Regulation(s).
