This European Standard specifies the constructional and performance characteristics, safety specifications, relevant test methods and marking of barbecues burning liquefied petroleum gas, referred to in the body of the text as "appliances". This European Standard covers barbecues as defined in 3.6 and contact grills as defined in 3.8, used outdoors and operating with the gases indicated in 4.1 according to the categories indicated in 4.2. They are fitted with at least one cooking device. This European Standard applies to these appliances and their functional sections whether or not the latter are independent or incorporated into an assembly. This European Standard also applies to appliances designed to be built-in. This European Standard only applies to type testing. Appliances supplied with third family gas at pressures greater those defined in 4.2 are outside the field of application of this European Standard. During the consideration of this text, it was apparent that the concept of thermal efficiency with regard to appliances such as barbecues was not appropriate. This is because: during cooking, there is an additional transfer of heat due to the meat juices falling onto the refractories; there is no relation between the item to be cooked and the useful area; the barbecue is an outdoor appliance in which the action of the wind is important in relation to efficiency. In consequence there is no specific requirement covering thermal efficiency for this type of appliance. This European Standard does not state all applicable requirements for integral equipments of other nature (for example burners covered by EN 484).

This European Standard specifies the safety, construction and performance requirements for multifunctional controls intended for use with gas burners, gas appliances and similar use, hereafter referred to as ”MFC”.

MFC consist of two or more functions, at least one of which is a mechanical control, as specified in the relevant control standards. MFC consisting only of electronics are not covered by EN 126 (an example is a combination of functions according to EN 298 and EN 1643).

This European Standard is applicable to solar supported gas-fired appliances producing domestic hot water. It applies to a system marketed as single unit or a system fully specified by a manufacturer that: - has a gas heat input not exceeding 70 kW; and - has a hot water storage capacity not exceeding 500 l; and - is equipped with at least one solar collector; and - is, with regard to the solar hydraulic circuit, considered as a forced circulation system (definition according to EN ISO 9488:1999). The appliances covered by this European Standard are described in Annex C. This European Standard, EN 13203-3, sets out a method for assessing the energy performance of a solar supported appliance. It defines a number of daily tapping cycles for each domestic hot water use, kitchen, shower, bath and a combination of these, together with corresponding test procedures including information about the available solar radiation. It enables the energy performances of different gas-fired appliances to be compared and matched to the needs of the user.

This European Standard specifies the safety, construction and performance requirements for manually operated taps and pre-setting taps intended for use with gas appliances and similar use, hereafter referred to as "taps". This European Standard is applicable to taps with declared maximum inlet pressures up to and including 50 kPa (500 mbar) of nominal connection sizes up to and including DN 50 for use with one or more fuel gases in accordance with EN 437. This European Standard does not apply to manual operated shut-off valves conforming to EN 331.

This European Standard specifies the safety, construction and performance requirements for mechanical thermostats intended for use with gas appliances and similar use, hereafter referred to as ‘thermostats’. This European Standard applies to thermostats with declared maximum inlet pressures up to and including 50 kPa (500 mbar) of nominal connection sizes up to and including DN 50 for use with one or more fuel gases in accordance with EN 437. This European Standard applies to thermostats controlling the gas flow directly or indirectly through an integral gas valve, and which do not require external electrical energy for their operation. This European Standard only applies to thermostats used with gas appliances which are not installed in the open air. Thermostats dealt with in this European Standard are intended for control functions.

This European Standard specifies the safety, construction and performance requirements for pressure sensing devices. This European Standard covers type testing only. It applies to pressure sensing devices for the measurement of pressures of combustible gases of the first, second and third families, air, combustion products for maximum inlet pressures up to 500 kPa (5 bar). It applies to all types of pressure sensing devices, including electronic, differential and inferential types. It specifies requirements for pressure sensing devices which are intended to be applied to steam boilers and as such need to meet increased reliability requirements. These devices are classified as PSD-S in this European Standard.

This European Standard is applicable to solar supported gas-fired appliances producing domestic hot water. It applies to a system marketed as single unit or a system fully specified by a manufacturer that:
-   has a gas heat input not exceeding 70 kW; and
-   has a hot water storage capacity not exceeding 500 l; and
-   is equipped with at least one solar collector; and
-   is, with regard to the solar hydraulic circuit, considered as a forced circulation system (definition according to EN ISO 9488:1999).
The appliances covered by this European Standard are described in Annex C.
This European Standard does not apply to thermo-siphon or integral collector storage systems (definitions according to EN ISO 9488:1999).
NOTE   In principle, the energy consumption of thermo-siphon solar preheat systems and integral collector storage preheat systems can also be assessed on the basis of this standard. One appropriate procedure for that purpose is to calculate the temperature level of the domestic hot water withdrawn from the thermal solar system for the reference conditions defined in this standard by using the numerical system model and the thermal solar system performance parameters according to ISO 9459-5. Based on the temperature level of the hot water withdrawn from the store the energy consumption of the gas appliance should be determined. This determination can either be done by means of calculations or by performing a test according to EN 13203-2 and using instead of the cold water inlet temperature the hot water temperature withdrawn from the store.
