This Technical Specification (CEN/TS) was approved by CEN on 26 October 2018 for provisional application.

The period of validity of this CEN/TS is limited initially to three years. After two years the members of CEN will be requested to
submit their comments, particularly on the question whether the CEN/TS can be converted into a European Standard.

CEN members are required to announce the existence of this CEN/TS in the same way as for an EN and to make the CEN/TS
available promptly at national level in an appropriate form. It is permissible to keep conflicting national standards in force (in
parallel to the CEN/TS) until the final decision about the possible conversion of the CEN/TS into an EN is reached.

CEN members are the national standards bodies of Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia,
Finland, Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania,
Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland,

European foreword
This document (CEN/TS 17287:2019) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 437
“Electronic cigarettes and e-liquids”, the secretariat of which is held by AFNOR.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. CEN shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organisations of the
following countries are bound to announce this Technical Specification: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria,
Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia,
France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta,
Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland,
Turkey and the United Kingdom.
Introduction
Electronic cigarettes, also called e-cigarettes, electronic cigarette devices or electronic nicotine vapor
delivery systems are usually battery-operated devices that people use to inhale an aerosol, which
typically contains nicotine (though not always), flavourings, and other chemicals. The vapor is generated
by heating a fluid often called e-liquid.
This document offers definitions, recommendation, references to other existing standards as well as best
practice solutions like test methods to minimize the risk for the consumer using e-cigarette devices.
Where no reference methods or standards could be identified, it is essential to further investigate the
need for the development of such methods.
The recommendations given in this document are relevant to all the various product types currently
available, as well as to those that will be developed. Not all elements of these recommendations will apply
to every type of product, but the definitions may be used to identify recommendations for specific
products, or parts of products, within this diverse sector.
In the absence of national regulations this standard can provide state of the art guidance for safe
e-cigarettes and e-liquids.
1 Scope
This document is applicable to electronic cigarettes and similar vapour producing devices intended for
the production of aerosol from e-liquids for consumption by inhalation. It is applicable to devices
intended for use with or without nicotine content in the aerosol produced. This standard is also
applicable to e-liquid containers, filling mechanisms and accessories, electrical and other, intended for
use with electronic cigarettes and similar vapour producing devices.
This standard specifies the minimum safety and technical requirements for electronic cigarette devices,
e-liquid containers, and associated accessories when operated and maintained in the manner prescribed
by the manufacturer.
