19、heating appliances. It forms a specification for portable electrical apparatus designed to measure combustion flue gas parameters of heating appliances, and includes the following parts under the generic title Specification for portable electrical apparatus designed to measure combustion flue gas pa

20、rameters of heating appliances: Part 1: General requirements and test methods; Part 2: Performance requirements for apparatus used in statutory inspections and assessments; Part 3: Performance requirements for apparatus used in non-statutory servicing of gas fired heating appliances. EN 50379-1 spec

21、ifies general requirements for the construction, testing and performance of portable spot reading apparatus designed to give an assessment of specific combustion flue gas parameters such as concentration of gaseous compounds, temperature and/or pressure to check the combustion performance of heating

22、 appliances for domestic residential and commercial applications using commercially available fuels. EN 50379-2 is for apparatus intended to be used for statutory measurement. In several European countries, legal requirements exist for the performance of heating appliances. Authorised inspectors use

23、 these apparatus to measure the flue gas parameters, in order to test compliance with national regulations. Due to the legal consequences resulting from the measurement there are strict requirements regarding the measuring uncertainty of these apparatus. Therefore EN 50379-2 includes maximum values

24、for measuring uncertainty of the apparatus. Tests with real flue gases form a key part of the verification of the performance of the apparatus for statutory measurement. The measuring uncertainty has to be justified by internationally accepted methods over the whole measuring range. EN 50379-3 is fo

25、r apparatus intended to be used for non-statutory applications. There are reduced performance requirements, because the apparatus are designed to decide if maintenance for a gas fired appliance is required, and for adjusting the appliance during maintenance. There will be no determination of the mea

26、suring uncertainty for the apparatus. BS EN 50379-2:2012 5 EN 50379-2:2012 1 Scope This European Standard covers apparatus designed to measure flue gas parameters of heating appliances for domestic residential and commercial applications using commercially available fuels in compliance with metrolog

27、ical specification. The apparatus may consist of different functional modules that may be tested separately for complying with this standard and will be combined in different ways according to the different applications. Part 1 of EN 50379 specifies the general requirements and is supplemented by th

28、e requirements in EN 50379-2 and/or EN 50379-3. This European Standard specifies the performance requirements of portable spot reading apparatus designed to give a measurement of specific combustion flue gas parameters such as concentration of gaseous compounds, temperature and/or pressure to be use

29、d for testing the compliance with national regulations for the above mentioned appliances. This European Standard excludes apparatus for continuous emission, safety monitoring and control, and use in vessels with an international load line. NOTE 1 When this apparatus is used in industrial premises,

30、national regulations should be observed. NOTE 2 Apparatus may contain functional modules that are not covered by this standard e.g. measurement of smoke spot number (see EN 267:2009+A1:2011, Annex A) and/or measurement of indoor ambient air (see EN 50543). 2 Normative references The following docume

36、ests For the purposes of type testing, for each sample the first test to be carried out shall be the initial performance test (5.5.3). One sample of the apparatus shall be subjected to the relevant tests given in 5.3 and 5.4. The mechanical tests of 5.3 shall be carried out before the tests of 5.4 t

37、o 5.9. After finishing the mechanical tests of 5.3 the initial performance test shall (5.5.3) be repeated at room temperature. NOTE Due to the use of different calibration gases at pre-calibration by the manufacturer and type testing according to this standard the instruments may show a discrepancy.

38、 In this case, it is permissible to make minor adjustments to the apparatus during the initial performance test (5.5.3). The EMC testing according to 5.4.1 may be carried out independently from all other tests of the standard. A further sample, or the same if desired, may be used for the tests in 5.

39、5, 5.7, 5.8 and 5.9. Two samples shall be used for the tests in 5.6, of which one may be the sample used for the earlier tests. At least two specimens are required for 5.6, to determine the standard deviation in performance between samples, in order to specify the measurement uncertainty and the rep

40、roducibility of the apparatus compared to reference analytical equipment, in accordance with EN 60359 and the international standard for mathematical procedures ISO/IEC Guide 98-3 (GUM). The tests within 5.3, 5.4 and 5.5 may be performed in any sequence, but 5.6 to 5.9 shall be performed in the sequ

41、ence listed in this standard, where relevant. For calculating the uncertainty in measurement during type testing, it may be necessary to obtain readings of measured values at a higher resolution than that displayed by the apparatus. If necessary, the manufacturer shall provide the means of obtaining

42、 such signals by modification of the apparatus used for type testing. 5.1.3 Preparation of samples The requirements specified in EN 50379-1:2012, 5.1.3 are applicable. 5.1.4 Test facility The requirements specified in EN 50379-1:2012, 5.1.4 are applicable. 5.2 Normal conditions for tests The require

43、ments specified in EN 50379-1:2012, 5.2 are applicable. 5.3 Mechanical tests 5.3.1 General The requirements specified in EN 50379-1:2012, 5.3.1 are applicable. 5.3.2 Degree of protection The enclosure of the apparatus shall provide at least an IP40 degree of protection when all probes etc. are conne

44、cted, in accordance with EN 60529:1991, Clauses 12 and 14. If an apparatus is designed for outdoor use it shall provide at least an IP42 degree of protection when connected similarly. BS EN 50379-2:2012 7 EN 50379-2:2012 5.3.3 Impact strength The apparatus shall meet the requirements specified in EN

45、 60335-1:2002, Clause 21, as modified by EN 50379-1:2012, 5.3.3. The function of the apparatus shall not be affected after the test. Visible damage to parts of the housing are acceptable, providing the functionality remains unimpaired. 5.3.4 Vibration The function of the apparatus shall not be affec

46、ted after the test. Visible damage to parts of the housing are acceptable, providing the functionality remains unimpaired. 5.3.5 Drop The function of the apparatus shall not be affected after the test.

48、l still be usable, as specified in the manufacturers instruction manual, and the maximum level of the condensate separator shall not be reached. The flow of the apparatus shall continuously be above the minimum flow, specified by the manufacturer, within the 1 h testing period. 5.4 Electrical and so
