Overview
SIST EN 14394:2006/kprA1:2008 is a draft amendment to the European Standard EN 14394:2005, focused on heating boilers fitted with forced draught burners. Specifically, it covers boilers with a nominal heat output not exceeding 10 MW and a maximum operating temperature of 110 °C. This standard is developed by the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) under Technical Committee CEN/TC 57.
The amendment addresses corrections in the original standard and integrates requirements related to the Pressure Equipment Directive (PED) and the Gas Appliance Directive (GAD). It ensures compliance with safety, construction, and efficiency expectations for heating boilers operating within specified parameters.
Key Topics
Scope and Application
Defines requirements for standard and low-temperature steel or cast iron boilers equipped with separately marketed forced draught burners. Boilers covered must comply with burner standards EN 267 (oil burners) and EN 676 (gas burners).Pressure Equipment Directive (PED) Integration
Boilers with a safety temperature limiter shut-off temperature up to 110 °C require adherence to "Sound Engineering Practice," while those exceeding 110 °C must meet essential PED requirements.Burner Matching
Details matching criteria for forced draught oil burners (EN 267) and gaseous fuel burners (EN 676), including testing requirements when nominal heat input exceeds the scope of referenced standards (EN 303-2 and EN 303-3).Technical Modifications and Corrections
Multiple clauses are amended to correct errors and clarify testing, design parameters, materials, and safety aspects. Key corrections include adjustments to allowable stresses, burst test pressures, inspection procedures, and technical documentation requirements.Safety and Testing Requirements
Specifies assessment tests, production tests, and final inspections to ensure structural integrity and safety compliance. Burst testing of boiler sections and hydraulic tests are mandated with defined pressure thresholds.Documentation and Installation Instructions
Manufacturers must supply documentation demonstrating compliance with PED material specifications for boilers exceeding 110 °C operating temperature.
Applications
SIST EN 14394:2006/kprA1:2008 applies primarily to:
- Central heating boilers with forced draught burners used in residential, commercial, and industrial heating systems.
- Boilers manufactured from steel or cast iron with nominal outputs up to 10 MW.
- Heating systems requiring compliance with European safety regulations including PED and GAD.
- Boiler manufacturers designing and testing boilers to achieve compliance for the European market.
- Installation and maintenance professionals ensuring boilers meet technical and safety standards.
This standard helps ensure boiler safety, reliability, efficiency, and regulatory compliance in systems utilizing forced draught burners within specified output and temperature limits.
Related Standards
SIST EN 14394:2006/kprA1:2008 references and is harmonized alongside several European standards, including:
- EN 267 – Forced draught oil burners
- EN 676 – Automatic forced draught burners for gaseous fuels
- EN 303-1 to EN 303-3 – Central heating boilers, their parts, and assembly testing
- EN 12953 series – Shell boilers covering materials, design, construction, safety devices, and inspection
- EN 12828 – Heating system safety valves and controls
These standards complement EN 14394 by providing detailed requirements for burners, boiler construction, safety devices, and operational testing under related directives.
Keywords: EN 14394, heating boilers, forced draught burners, nominal heat output, 10 MW boilers, maximum operating temperature, Pressure Equipment Directive, PED, Gas Appliance Directive, GAD, boiler safety, European standard, boiler testing, boiler design.

Foreword
This document (EN 14394:2005/prA1:2006) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 57 “Central
heating boilers”, the secretariat of which is held by DIN.
This document is currently submitted to the CEN Enquiry.
This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the
European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of EU Directive(s).
For relationship with EU Directive(s), see informative Annex ZB, which is an integral part of this document.
The requirements and test methods related to the Essential Requirements of the Council Directive
90/396/EEC relating to appliances burning gaseous fuels (Gas Appliance Directive – GAD) for assemblies
made up of a boiler body complying with EN 303-1 and a forced draught gas burner complying with EN 676
with a nominal heat output not exceeding 1.000 kW are covered in the Harmonized European Standard
EN 303-3:1998 and its Amendment A2:2004. For assemblies with a heat output between 1.000 kW and
10 MW however no Harmonized European Standard does exist at the moment. The relevant clauses of
EN 303-3:1998 can be taken as a basis to prove conformity with the essential requirements of the GAD.
1 Modification to Clause 1 „Scope”
The first paragraph shall be replace by:
This European standard specifies the requirements and test methods for the construction, the safety and the
rational energy usage for standard boilers and low temperature boilers (with „boiler" in the sense of „boiler body")
from steel and cast iron to be equipped with separately marketed forced draught burners according to the
relevant burner standards (for automatic forced draught burners for gaseous fuels see EN 676 and for atomising
oil burners see EN 267) up to a nominal heat output of 10 MW. They are operated, either with negative pressure
(natural draught boiler) or with positive pressure (pressurised boiler) in the combustion chamber, in accordance
with the boiler manufacturer's instructions
The following paragraph shall be added:
This European standard specifies requirements for boilers with normal operating temperatures between 100 °C
and 110 °C and has a "dual structure":
• For boilers where the shut off temperature of the safety temperature limiter does not exceed 110 °C
the Pressure Equipment Directive (PED) requires" Sound Engineering Practice",
• For boilers where the shut off temperature of the safety temperature limiter exceeds 110 °C this
European standard specifies the requirements needed to meet the Essential Requirements of the PED.
NOTE 1 The "maximum allowable temperature TS" is defined in the PED and its Guidelines as the temperature at
which the safety temperature limiter shuts off the boiler.
The „Note" shall be changed as followed:
NOTE 2 Definitions for standard boiler and low temperature boiler see Council Directive 92/42/EEC.
2 Modification to Clause 2 „Normative references”
The following standards shall be added:
EN 12953-1, Shell boilers — Part 1: General
EN 12953-2, Shell boilers — Part 2: Materials for pressure parts of boilers and accessories
EN 12953-3, Shell boilers — Part 3: Design and calculation for pressure parts

EN 12953-7, Shell boilers — Part 7: Requirements for firing systems for liquid and gaseous fuels for the boiler
EN 12953-9, Shell boilers — Part 9: Requirements for limiting devices and safety circuits of the boiler and
accessories
EN 12953-10, Shell boilers — Part 10: Requirements for boiler feed water and boiler water quality
