b)   outdoor appliances;
c)   appliances of heat input in excess of 120 kW (based on the net calorific value of the appropriate reference gas);
d)   appliances having fully pre-mixed gas and air burners in which:

SIST EN 419-1:2009

4.3.1 General Appliances are classified into several types according to the method of evacuation of the combustion products and admission of the combustion air. 4.3.2 Type A An appliance not intended for connection to a flue or to a device for evacuation of the products of combustion to the outside of the room in which the appliance is installed. This standard applies to: a) Type A1: a Type A appliance without a fan. 5 Constructional requirements 5.1 General 5.1.1 Conversion to different gases The only acceptable operations when converting from a gas of one group or family to a gas of another group or family and/or to adapt to different gas distribution pressures are given below for each category. SIST EN 419-1:2009

Categories of appliance designed for use with gases of the second and third families Adjustment of the gas rate with, if necessary, a change of injector, restrictor or regulator. Adjustment of the gas rate of the ignition burner(s), either by using an adjuster or by a change of injector or restrictor and, if necessary, a change of the complete ignition burner(s) or of some of its/their parts. A change, if necessary, of the automatic shut-off valves(s). Adjustment of the low pressure cut-off, if any. Putting the regulator out of service under the conditions of 5.2.5. Putting the gas rate adjuster(s) out of service under the conditions given in 5.2.2. The adjustments or component changes are only acceptable when:
a) converting from a gas of the second family to a gas of the third family or vice versa; b) converting from one butane/propane pressure couple to another, e.g. 28 - 30 /37 mbar <=> 50/67 mbar. SIST EN 419-1:2009

b) such as to ensure a reasonable operating life. In particular, when the appliance is installed according to the manufacturer’s instructions, all the components shall withstand the mechanical, chemical and thermal conditions to which they may be subjected when used in a manner which can be reasonably foreseen. Copper shall not be used for gas-carrying parts where the temperature is likely to exceed 100 °C. Asbestos or materials containing asbestos shall not be used. Solder that has a melting point below 450 °C after application shall not be used for gas-carrying parts. 5.1.3 Accessibility for maintenance and use Components and controls shall be arranged such that they are readily accessible for adjustment, maintenance or exchange. Where necessary, access doors or removable panels shall be provided. Parts that are intended to be removed for maintenance or cleaning shall be readily accessible, shall be simple to assemble correctly and difficult to assemble incorrectly. Such parts shall be difficult to assemble incorrectly where incorrect assembly would create a hazardous condition or result in damage to the appliance and its controls. Parts of the appliance which are not intended to be removed by the user and for which removal would affect safety shall be capable of removal only with the aid of tools. 5.1.4
Means of sealing the gas circuit
Holes for screws, studs, etc. intended for the assembly of components shall not open into the gasways. The wall thickness between holes (including threads) and gasways shall be not less than 1 mm. The soundness of components and assemblies connected to the gas circuit and likely to be dismantled for routine maintenance at the consumer’s premises shall be ensured by means of mechanical joints (e.g. metal to metal joints, O-ring joints or packing) but excluding the use of any sealing compound (e.g. tape, mastic or paste). The soundness shall be maintained after dismantling and re-assembly. Sealing compounds may be used for permanent threaded assemblies. The sealing materia
