Abstract

This European Standard specifies the requirements and test methods for the construction, safety, fitness for purpose, rational use of energy, classification and marking of gas-fired central heating boilers, hereafter referred to as 'boilers'.  This standard applies to type B11 and BB11BS boilers:  - fitted with atmospheric burners; - that use gases corresponding to the three gas families and to the pressures   stated in 4.1.4; - that have a nominal heat input not exceeding 70 kW (on net calorific value); - where the temperature of the water does not exceed 95 øC during normal   operation; - where the maximum water-side operating pressure does not exceed 6 bar.  This standard does not contain all the necessary requirements for:  boilers:  - intended to be installed in the open; - having multiple heating units with a single draught diverter; - with fan-assisted combustion; - of the condensing type; i- ntended to be connected to a common flue having mechanical extraction; - fitted with manual or automatic means of adjusting the air supply and/or   adjusting the evacuation of the combustion products; - of the combination type (central heating and domestic hot water production);  appliances:  - combining the functions of an independent space heater and a hot water   generator for central heating.  This standard only covers type testing.

Frequently Asked Questions

EN 297:1994 is a standard published by the European Committee for Standardization (CEN). Its full title is "Gas-fired central heating boilers - Type B11 and B11BS boilers fitted with atmospheric burners of nominal heat input not exceeding 70 kW". This standard covers: This European Standard specifies the requirements and test methods for the construction, safety, fitness for purpose, rational use of energy, classification and marking of gas-fired central heating boilers, hereafter referred to as 'boilers'. This standard applies to type B11 and BB11BS boilers: - fitted with atmospheric burners; - that use gases corresponding to the three gas families and to the pressures stated in 4.1.4; - that have a nominal heat input not exceeding 70 kW (on net calorific value); - where the temperature of the water does not exceed 95 øC during normal operation; - where the maximum water-side operating pressure does not exceed 6 bar. This standard does not contain all the necessary requirements for: boilers: - intended to be installed in the open; - having multiple heating units with a single draught diverter; - with fan-assisted combustion; - of the condensing type; i- ntended to be connected to a common flue having mechanical extraction; - fitted with manual or automatic means of adjusting the air supply and/or adjusting the evacuation of the combustion products; - of the combination type (central heating and domestic hot water production); appliances: - combining the functions of an independent space heater and a hot water generator for central heating. This standard only covers type testing.
