 N EN 13611

Annotation

This European Standard specifies the general safety, design, construction, and performance requirements and testing for safety, control or regulating devices (hereafter referred to as controls) for burners and appliances burning one or more gaseous fuels or liquid fuels. This European Standard is applicable to controls with declared maximum inlet pressure up to and including 500 kPa of nominal connection sizes up to and including DN 250.

This European standard specifies general product requirements for the following controls:

— automatic shut-off valves;

— automatic burner control systems;

— flame supervision devices;

— gas/air ratio controls;

— pressure regulators;

— manual taps;

— mechanical thermostats;

— multifunctional controls;

— pressure sensing devices;

— valve proving systems;

— automatic vent valves.

This European standard applies for control functions that are not covered by a specific control standard for burners and appliances burning one or more gaseous fuels or liquid fuels.

This European Standard applies also for safety accessories and pressure accessories with a product of the maximum allowable pressure PS and the volume V of less than 600 000 kPa · dm3 (6 000 bar· litres) or with a product of PS and DN of less than 300 000 kPa (3 000 bar).
