Introduction CEN/TC 166 intends to publish the test methods for system chimneys as separate parts of a series of standards. The first part of the series of EN 13216 includes material-independent test methods for system chimneys. For the purpose of this document, system chimneys are considered as kits in the meaning of Guidance Paper C (see Bibliography). Further parts of the multi-part standard include material-specific test methods, each material used for the inner wall being decisive. The material-specific test methods are based on the general material-independent test methods. Considering the various characteristics, the material tests can be carried out on deviating specimens or can include other test procedures which however have correlation to those given in this standard. It is intended to prepare further parts if further material-specific standards are published. SIST EN 13216-1:2004

5.2.3 Measuring parameters Measure the weight of material dislodged from the inner surface of the test assembly after 100 cycles with an accuracy of 1,0 g. The area for the inner surface of the test sample, exposed to abrasion shall be calculated. 5.2.4 Test procedure The brush shall be pushed down and up through the total length of the test sample with a maximum speed of 2 m/s and this represents one cycle. A test number of 100 cycles shall be completed. Record the weight of material dislodged and the dimensions of the inner surface. 5.2.5 Test results The recorded mass of material abraded from the inner surface of the test sample over 100 sweeping cycles shall be expressed in terms of kilograms per square meter of the total exposed area of the inner surface of the flue. 5.3 Relative movement of the flue liner in multi-wall system chimneys 5.3.1 Test apparatus A test apparatus which allows the measurement of deviations in the differential movement between the flue liner and the outer wall of multi-wall-system chimneys. The accuracy shall be ± 0,001 m. 5.3.2 Test sample The test sample shall be the test chimney used for the thermal performance tests, thermally conditioned according to the designation given in EN 1443. The test sample shall be assembled as specified in product standards. When the manufacturer claims for an opening, it shall be installed in Zone C (see Figure 1). 5.3.3 Measuring parameters Measure the surface temperature of the test chimney according to 5.7. Measure the change in position of the flue liner relative to the outer wall at the top of the test sample before and after the thermal performance tests. 5.3.4 Test procedure All measurements shall be made before and after the thermal performance test appropriate to the designation. Record the difference in length between the flue liner and the outer wall when all thermocouples have reached ambient air temperature within 5 °C. 5.3.5 Test results The results are expressed by the change in position of the flue liner relative to the outer wall after the test sample has cooled down to room temperature.

5.4 Gas tightness test 5.4.1 Test apparatus Provide an air supply capable of delivering air at a rate sufficient to achieve and maintain the required test pressure at the leakage rate appropriate to the designation. Seal the flue inlet and the flue outlet of the test chimney with an air tight seal in a typical manner (see Figure 5). For measurement of pressure use:  for chimneys designated N a device with the pressure to an accuracy of ± 1 Pa;  for chimneys designated P a device with the pressure to an accuracy of ± 5 Pa;  for chimneys designated H a device with the pressure to an accuracy of ± 50 Pa. For measurement of the gas leakage for negative and for positive pressure chimneys in accordance with EN 1443 use a device with an accuracy of ± 5 %. 5.4.2 Test sample The test sample shall be the test chimney used for the thermal performance tests, thermally conditioned according to the designation given in EN 1443. The test sample shall be assembled as specified in system chimney standards, (i.e. with an opening where appropriate) (see Figure 5). Where the products are not required to be thermally conditioned, the test sample (i.e. with an opening where appropriate) shall consist of at least two chimney sections or fittings with one joint where applicable. 5.4.3 Measuring parameters Measure and record:  gas leakage and the pressure maintained during the test in accordance with EN 1443;  inner dimensions of the test sample. Calculate the inner surface area. Record the air flow rate, the pressure and the inner dimensions of the test sample. 5.4.4 Test procedure Deliver air from the air supply to the flue at a rate necessary to achieve and maintain the required test pressure given in EN 1443. Measure the gas leakage at ambient temperature. Subject the test sample to thermal conditions appropriate to the designation or as stated in the product standards. Measure the gas leakage again at ambient temperature. 5.4.5 Test results The results are expressed by the leakage rate related to the inner surface area of the test sample. SIST EN 13216-1:2004

0,008 m3⋅h-1⋅m-1) during 4 h or until water appears on the outside of the test sample. Dry and weigh the test samples. When components of the test chimney are weighed, they have to be dried and then re-weighed. Record:  spray temperature and the spray volume;  detection of (coloured) water outside of fittings or chimney sections;  change in weight of the test sample after spraying water in comparison to the dried sample. 5.5.5 Test results Record:  location of any appearance of water on the outside of any fitting or chimney section of the test samples, and  any change in weight of the test sample or components. 5.6 Vapour and condensate resistance test 5.6.1 Test apparatus A test apparatus which allows to deliver water vapour saturated air at a temperature of 52 °C ± 2 °C and a velocity of 1 m/s ± 0,2 m/s, consisting of a fan, a heater, a vapour steam vessel, and a flow rectifier (see Figure 7). Use a measurement equipment:  for flue gas temperature with an accuracy of ± 1,5 °C,  for layer temperature with an accuracy of ± 0,5 °C and  for humidity with an accuracy of ± 2 % in the range of 0 % to 80 % and of ± 3 % in the range of 80 % to 100 %. The balance to weigh components of the test sample shall have an accuracy of ± 1 g up to 10 kg and ± 2 g for more than 10 kg. The balance shall be capable of weighing at least two flue liners or two chimney sections. For measurement of chimney draught use a device with an accuracy of ± 1 Pa. For measurement of flue gas velocity use a device with an accuracy of ± 0,1 m/s. SIST EN 13216-1:2004
