European foreword
This document (prEN 12309-6:2022) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 299 “Gas-fired
sorption appliances, indirect fired sorption appliances, gas-fired endothermic engine heat pumps and
domestic gas-fired washing and drying appliances”, the secretariat of which is held by UNI.
This document is currently submitted to the CEN Enquiry.
This document will supersede EN 12309-6:2014.
This document includes the following significant technical changes with respect to EN 12309-6:2014:
— Terminology has been aligned to Commission Regulation (EU) No 813/2013 of 2 August 2013 and
Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) No 811/2013 of 18 February 2013;
— Heating temperature profile 45 °C has been eliminated;
— Optional testing points have been added.
This standard comprises parts under the general title, Gas-fired sorption appliances for heating and/or
cooling with a net heat input not exceeding 70 kW. A list of all parts in a series can be found on the CEN
website.
This document will be reviewed whenever new mandates could apply.
This document has been prepared under a Standardization Request given to CEN by the European
Commission and the European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of
EU Directive(s) / Regulation(s).
For relationship with EU Directive(s) / Regulation(s), see informative Annex ZA and ZB which are
integral parts of this document.
prEN 12309-6:2022 (E)
1 Scope
1.1 Scope of EN 12309
Appliances covered by this document include one or a combination of the following:
— gas-fired sorption chiller;
— gas-fired sorption chiller/heater;
— gas-fired sorption heat pump.
This document applies to appliances designed to be used for space heating or cooling or refrigeration
with or without heat recovery.
This document applies to appliances having flue gas systems of Type B and Type C (according to
EN 1749:2020) and to appliances designed for outdoor installations, including Type A. EN 12309 does
not apply to air conditioners, it only applies to appliances having:
— integral burners under the control of fully automatic burner control systems,
— closed system refrigerant circuits in which the refrigerant does not come into direct contact with the
water or air to be cooled or heated,
— mechanical means to assist transportation of the combustion air and/or the flue gas.
The above appliances can have one or more primary or secondary functions (i.e. heat recovery - see
definitions in prEN 12309-1:2022).
In the case of packaged units (consisting of several parts), this European Standard applies only to those
designed and supplied as a complete package.
The appliances having their condenser cooled by air and by the evaporation of external additional water
are not covered by EN 1
