This Standard specifies the laboratory test methods and test requirements for aerodynamic, energy rating and acoustic performance, of multifunctional balanced units intended for use in a single dwelling.

In the case of units consisting of several parts, this standard applies only to those designed and supplied as a complete package with the mount instructions.

It covers unit that contain at least, within one or more casing:

—      supply and exhaust air fans;

—      air filters

—      common control system.

And one or more of the additional components

—       Air to water heat pump;

—       Air to air heat pump

—       air-to-air heat exchanger

except units including either an air to air heat exchanger and/or exhaust air to supply air heat pump which are already covered by EN 13141-7.

A non-exhaustive list of possible configurations of multifunctional units covered by this standard is given in Clause 5.

The standard does not cover the thermal aspects of humidity transfer in the air-to-air heat exchanger.

This standard does not deal with non-ducted units on supply and extract air side.

This standard does not deal with collective units (centralised or semi-centralised systems)

These multifunctional balanced units can be connected to ground heat exchanger for air preheating, solar collector or other heating systems. This standard does not cover the testing of these additional components.

This standard does not cover units including combustion engine driven compression heat pumps and sorption heat pump.

This European Standard specifies the requirements and test methods for the construction, safety, marking and rational use of energy of open fronted gas-fired independent space heaters with and without a fan to assist with the transportation of flue gases, hereafter referred to as appliances. Although the fan may be mounted outdoors, this standard only covers appliances where the body of the appliance is indoors.

This standard applies to types B_11AS, B_11BS, B_14AS, and B_14BS (commonly referred to in this standard as type B₁ appliances) open fronted gas-fired independent space heating appliances:

—       that incorporate an atmospheric burner;

—       that are connected directly to an open flue (see Figure 1), or to a device to evacuate the products of combustion (open-flued appliances);

—       that have a nominal heat input not exceeding 20 kW (based on the net calorific value);

—       that are delivered with the gas-carrying components, burner(s), combustion chamber and heat exchanger fully assembled.

It does not apply to:

—       closed-fronted appliances;

—       decorative fuel effect appliances as specified in EN 509;

—       catalytic combustion appliances;

—       ducted-air appliances;

—       appliances installed by means of a closure plate (see 3.3.3.3).

This European Standard specifies safety requirements and test methods for products which are intended for the purpose of carrying a child in a lying position by means of handle(s) and for stands which may be used in conjunction with these products. The safety requirements are intended to assure that the carrying and sleeping functions do not present hazards to the child when the product is used in a normal way taking into account the foreseeable behaviour of the child.

These products are intended for a child who cannot sit unaided, roll over or push up on its hands and knees, with a maximum weight of 9 kg. Hereafter, in this European Standard these articles are called "carry cots" and include all types of carry cots with rigid or soft sides as well as moses baskets and any similar articles. Any other functions of the product shall comply with relevant European Standards.

This European Standard has not considered the requirements of children with special needs.

Part 2 of EN 16489 specifies the requirements that are essential for the knowledge and skills, competence, and qualification of indoor sun exposure consultants.

Part 3 of EN 16489 defines the requirements for and assessment of the service provision of indoor sun exposure facilities, and will contribute to further strengthen consumer protection and safety with regard to professionally offered indoor tanning services.

Requirements for UV appliances for skin exposure are excluded in this standard, as they fall under the scope of EN 60335-2-27.

This part of EN 16582-3 specifies the specific safety and quality requirements and test methods for domestic aboveground swimming pools in addition to the general requirements of EN 16582‑1 and shall be read in conjunction with it. The requirements of this specific standard take priority over those in EN 16582-1.

These requirements and test methods are applicable to aboveground pool structure, including their means of access.

This document applies to pools with a minimum water depth more than 400 mm.

This standard does not apply to:

—       pools of public use covered by EN 15288-1;

—       paddling pools according to EN 71-8;

—       domestic spas.

This part of EN 16582-2 specifies the specific safety and quality requirements and test methods for domestic partially or fully in ground swimming pools in addition to the general requirements of EN 16582‑1 and shall be read in conjunction with it. The requirements of this specific standard take priority over those in EN 16582-1 .

These requirements and test methods are only applicable to partially or fully in ground pool structure, including their means of access.

This document applies to pools with a minimum water depth of 400 mm.

This standard does not apply to:

—       pools of public use covered by EN 15288-1;

—       paddling pools according to EN 71-8;

—       domestic spas.

This document specifies the general safety and quality r equirements and test methods for domestic swimming pools. These requirements and test methods are applicable to in ground or aboveground swimming pool structure, including their installation and means of access.

This standard does not apply to:

—       pools of public use covered by EN 15288-1;

—       domestic spas ;

—       paddling pools according to EN 71-8.
