Glass in building - Insulating glass units - Part 5: Evaluation of conformity
This document specifies requirements, the evaluation of conformity and the factory production control of insulating glass units for use in buildings.
NOTE 1 For glass products with electrical wiring or connections for e.g. alarm or heating purposes, other directives, e.g. Low Voltage Directive, may apply.
The main intended uses of the insulating glass units are installations in windows, doors, curtain walling, roofs and partitions where there exists protection against direct ultraviolet radiation at the edges.
NOTE 2 In cases where there is no protection against direct ultra-violet radiation at the edges, such as structural sealant glazing systems, additional European technical specifications should be followed (e.g. prEN XXX, prEN 13022-1).
NOTE 3 Units for which the intended use is only 'artistic' and therefore no essential requirement is required, are not subject to CE marking and are not part of this document.
Glas im Bauwesen - Mehrscheiben-Isolierglas - Teil 5: Konformitätsbewertung
Diese Euroäische Norm legt Anforderungen an sowie die Konformitätsbewertung und die werkseigene
Produktionskontrolle für Mehrscheiben-Isolierglas zur Verwendung in Gebäuden fest.
ANMERKUNG 1 Für Glasprodukte mit elektrischer Verdrahtung oder elektrischen Anschlüssen, z. B. zu Alarm- oder
Heizzwecken, gelten möglicherweise weitere Richtlinien, z. B. die Niederspannungsrichtlinie.
Der vorgesehene Hauptverwendungszweck der Mehrscheiben-Isoliergläser ist der Einbau in Fenster, Türen,
Vorhangfassaden, Dächer und Trennwände, wobei die Ränder des Glases gegen direkte UV-Strahlung
geschützt sind.
ANMERKUNG 2 Falls die Ränder nicht gegen direkte UV-Strahlung geschützt sind, wie z. B. bei geklebten
Verglasungen (�Structural Sealant Glazingiu-Systeme), sollten zusätzliche Europäische Technische Spezifikationen befolgt
werden (z. B. 00129113, prEN 13022-1).
ANMERKUNG 3 Einheiten, die nur für �künstlerischeim Zwecke vorgesehen sind und für die daher keine wesentlichen
Anforderungen gelten, sind nicht Gegenstand der CE-Kennzeichnung und werden von dieser Europäischen Norm nicht
erfasst.
Verre dans la construction - Vitrage isolant - Partie 5: Evaluation de la conformité
La présente Norme européenne spécifie des exigences relatives à l'évaluation de la conformité et au contrôle de la production en usine des vitrages isolants utilisés dans la construction.
NOTE 1 Pour les produits verriers équipés d'un câblage ou de branchements électriques pour les besoins d'alarme ou de chauffage, par exemple, d'autres directives, comme par exemple la Directive "Basse(s) Tension(s)", peuvent s'appliquer.
Les usages prévus des vitrages isolants sont principalement les installations dans des fenêtres, portes, murs rideaux, toitures et cloisons offrant une protection des bords contre les rayonnements ultraviolets directs.
NOTE 2 En l'absence de protection contre les rayonnements ultraviolets directs sur les bords, comme par exemple pour les vitrages extérieurs collés, il convient de se conformer à d'autres spécifications techniques européennes (par exemple 00129113, prEN 13022-1).
NOTE 3 Les vitrages de nature purement "artistique", et pour lesquels aucune exigence essentielle n'est requise, ne sont pas soumis au marquage CE et ne sont pas couverts par la présente Norme européenne.

4.3.2 Determination of characteristics of insulating glass units 4.3.2.1 General If the insulating glass manufacturer wishes to claim that any performance characteristic is independent of the production equipment used then the factory production control system shall be in accordance with this European Standard including his specific process control conditions. 4.3.2.2 Safety in the case of fire - Resistance to fire Fire resistance shall be determined and classified in accordance with EN 13501-2. NOTE EN 357 may be used as a classification reference specific to fire resistant glazed elements. 4.3.2.3 Safety in the case of fire - Reaction to fire Reaction to fire shall be determined and classified in accordance with EN 13501-1. For classification, consideration shall be given to: a) the following product changes require new type testing on reaction to fire: reduction of the reaction to fire classification of the glass components in the insulating glass unit; reduction of the reaction to fire performance of the organic sealant in the edge seal; b) however when not tested, the insulating glass unit shall be classified either: by the reaction to fire classification of the glass component used in the insulating glass unit, or by the classification of an insulating glass units using the same organic sealant in the edge seal,

Substitution of materials and of components shall maintain the conformity of the system with the definition of insulating glass units. The relevant seal properties, components and the related derived requirements are summarized in EN 1279-1:2004, Tables B.1 and B.2, together with the validation methods. The component manufacturer test reports may be used to validate the substitution. During factory production control the short climate test value of the test report shall be confirmed by the outcome value of the periodic test of the factory production control. Only one substitution shall be made at any one time. When a relevant material changes the short climate test shall be repeated (EN 1279-6:2002, B.4.2). When meeting the requirements, the substituting materials and components shall be added to the system description. In case of system description (processed edge seal description) change, test report on prototype can be used. During factory production control the short climate test value of the test report shall be confirmed by the outcome value of the periodic test of the factory production control. If glass panes are used which are not covered by European specifications, it shall be demonstrated that those glasses have a chemical and mechanical stability over time comparable with: soda lime silicate glass according to EN 572-1; or borosilicate glass according to EN 1748-1-1; or glass ceramics according to EN 1748-2-1; or alkaline earth silicate glass according to EN 14178-1. 5.2.5 Initial type testing of performances of characteristics (5.1, 2)) All characteri
