    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    Specifies the specifications and test methods for the construction, safety, rational use of energy and fitness for purpose, environment and classification and marking of gas-fired storage water heaters for domestic hot water uses, hereafter called 'appliance'.

    Scope - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    This European Standard defines the specifications and test methods for the construction, safety, rational use of energy and fitness for purpose, environment and classification and marking of gas-fired storage water heaters for domestic hot water uses, hereafter called “appliance??.

    This European Standard applies to appliances:

    • of selected types B1, B2, B3, B5, C1, C2, C3, C4, C5, C6, C7, C8, C9 according to CEN/TR 1749;

    • fitted with atmospheric burners;

    • using one or more combustible gases corresponding to the three gas families and the pressures indicated in EN 437;

    • of nominal heat input not exceeding 150 kW (net calorific value);

    • fitted with electrically operated mechanical flue dampers that are positioned downstream of the heat exchanger.
