22、e quality of water intended for human consumption, caused by the product covered by this standard, it is pointed out that: a) This standard provides no information as to whether the product may be used without restriction in any of the Member States of the EU or EFTA; b) It should be noted that, whi
23、le awaiting the adoption of verifiable European criteria, existing national regulations concerning the use and/or the characteristics of this product remain in force. BS EN 12975-1:2006+A1:2010EN 12975-1:2006+A1:2010 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard specifies requirements on durability (includin
24、g mechanical strength), reliability and safety for liquid heating solar collectors. It also includes provisions for evaluation of conformity to these requirements. It is not applicable to those collectors in which the thermal storage unit is an integral part of the collector to such an extent, that
25、the collection process cannot be separated from the storage process for the purpose of making measurements of these two processes. !It is basically applicable to concentrating collectors; thermal performance testing as given in EN 12975-2:2006, 6.3. (quasi dynamic testing) is also applicable to most
26、 concentrating collector designs, from stationary non-imaging concentrators as CPCs to high concentrating tracking designs.“ Collectors that are custom-built (built in, roof integrated collectors that do not comprise factory made modules and are assembled directly on the place of installation) canno
27、t be tested in their actual form for durability, reliability and thermal performance according to this standard. Instead, a module with the same structure as the ready collector is tested. The module gross area in the case of custom built collectors should be at least 2 m2. The test is valid only fo
28、r larger collectors, than the tested module. For collectors the national and European Guidelines for Structural Planning and overhead glazing are not valid. Therefore this standard should be applied for the design of the static of the collector. 2 Normative references The following referenced docume
29、nts are indispensable for the application of this European Standard. For dated references, only the edition cited applies.
