Oil fired forced convection air heaters - Stationary and transportable for space heating
This European Standard specifies the requirements and test methods for the safety and efficiency of oil-fired air heaters using only forced draught oil burners, hereafter referred to as "appliances".
This European Standard applies to stationary and portable appliances. It also applies to appliances intended for outdoor installation. Provision of the heated air may be by means of ducting or may be directly into the heated space.

Alternatively, if the manufacturer requests, the fuel of kerosene may be used as defined in EN 304:1992. Kerosene with a viscosity at the burner of 1,3 mm2/s (cSt) to 2,9 mm2/s (cSt) at 20 °C) or other suitable liquid fuel oils may also be used.
This standard does not apply to:
- appliances intended for use in a single unit residential dwelling;
- appliances of the condensing type;
- appliances with atmospheric burners without a fan to assist the transportation of combustion air;
- dual purpose air conditioning appliances (heating and cooling);
- appliances where the air is heated by an intermediate fluid;
- appliances fitted with manual or automatic flue dampers;
- appliances having multiple heating units with a single flue;
- appliances fitted with more than one flue outlet.
This European Standard is applicable to appliances which are intended to be type tested.
NOTE Requirements for appliances which are not type tested would need to be subject to further consideration.
Ölbefeuerte Warmlufterzeuger - Ortsfest und ortsbeweglich für die Raumheizung
Diese Europäische Norm legt die Anforderungen und Prüfverfahren für die Sicherheit und den Wirkungsgrad ölbefeuerter Warmlufterzeuger unter ausschließlicher Verwendung von Ölbrennern mit Gebläse, nachfolgend kurz als �Geräte" bezeichnet, fest.
Diese Europäische Norm gilt für ortsfeste und tragbare Geräte. Sie bezieht sich auch auf Geräte, die zur Installation im Freien vorgesehen sind. Die Zufuhr der Heizluft kann entweder mittels Leitungen oder direkt in den zu beheizenden Raum erfolgen.
Für die Anwendung dieser Norm wird die Wärme durch die Verbrennung von flüssigem Öl nach EN 267 (Gasöl mit einer Viskosität am Brenner von 1,6 mm2/s (cSt) bis zu 6 mm2/s (cSt) bei 20 °C) erzeugt. Falls der Hersteller dies fordert, darf alternativ Kerosinöl nach EN 304:1992 verwendet werden. Es dürfen auch Kerosin mit einer Viskosität am Brenner von 1,3 mm2/s (cSt) bis 2,9 mm2/s (cSt) bei 20 °C oder weitere geeignete Arten flüssigen Öls verwendet werden.
Diese Norm gilt nicht für:
- Geräte, die für den Gebrauch in nur aus einer Einheit bestehenden Wohnungen ausgelegt sind;

Overview
EN 13842:2004 is a CEN (European) standard that specifies safety and efficiency requirements and test methods for oil‑fired forced convection air heaters that use forced‑draught oil burners. It covers both stationary and transportable (portable) appliances intended for space heating, including units installed outdoors and units that deliver heated air directly or via ducting. Fuels are primarily liquid fuel oils defined in EN 267 (gas oil) with optional use of kerosene per EN 304 when requested by the manufacturer. EN 13842 is intended primarily for appliances that are type tested.
Key topics and requirements
- Scope and exclusions: Applies to forced‑draught oil burner heaters but excludes single‑unit residential heaters, condensing units, atmospheric burners without a fan, dual heating/cooling units, appliances heated by an intermediate fluid, units with manual/automatic flue dampers, multi‑unit single‑flue systems, and appliances with more than one flue outlet.
- Construction requirements: Mechanical, chemical and thermal robustness of components (heat exchanger, combustion chamber, casing), non‑use of asbestos or cadmium‑bearing solder, and non‑combustible materials where required.
- Combustion air and flue connections: Adequate combustion air supply across operating range; fixed combustion product outlet geometry and rules for flue connection depth and diameter to ensure safe evacuation of combustion products.
- Controls and safety devices: Requirements for automatic burner control systems, automatic shut‑off valves, overheat cut‑offs (manual reset), fan delay controls, thermostats, and lock‑out behavior after faults or power interruption.
- Electrical and EMC requirements: Compliance with prEN 50156‑1, EN 60335‑1, EN 60730 series, EN 60529 for IP ratings, and provisions for leakage current, wiring diagrams and protection.
- Accessibility & maintenance: Removable parts must be accessible and designed to avoid hazardous incorrect reassembly; user access panels must not allow combustion products into air distribution.
- Test methods, marking and instructions: Standard includes prescribed tests, measurements and mandatory documentation for safe commissioning and type testing.

If the density and sulphur content is known the calorific value can be calculated as in the formula in 6.3.2.3. 6.4 Temperature of parts of the appliance which have to be touched during normal use 6.4.1 General The temperatures of the parts specified in 5.2 shall be measured at thermal equilibrium using an instrument with an accuracy of ±2 K, for example using contact thermocouples, and compliance with the requirements of 5.2 is verified. 6.4.2 Temperatures of the side walls, front and top of the appliance The test is carried out when the appliance has reached thermal equilibrium. The temperatures of the hottest parts of the side walls, front and top of the appliance are measured by a suitable means having an accuracy of ±2 K, for example using contact thermocouples, and compliance with the requirements of 5.2.1.2 is verified. 6.4.3 Component temperatures Component temperatures are measured when thermal equilibrium has been reached and after the appliance has been turned off at the end of the test, and compliance with the requirements of 5.2.1.3 is verified. The component temperatures are measured by means of attached thermocouples having thermoelectric junctions with an accuracy of ±2 K. Alternative devices of equivalent accuracy may by used. However, if an electrical component is itself likely to cause a rise in temperature (e.g. automatic shut-off valves) the temperature of the component is not measured. In this case, thermocouples or alternative devices, are placed so as to measure the air temperature around the device. The temperature measurements of the components are deemed to be satisfactory if: ()Ctttasm025−+≤ (7) where tm is the maximum temperature measured in the test in degrees Celsius (°C); ts is the maximum temperature specified by the component manufacturer in degrees Celsius (°C); ta is the ambient room temperature in degrees Celsius (°C). NOTE If the maximum temperature of the component was specified for an ambient temperature other than 25 °C, this should be used. SIST EN 13842:2005

Where the appliance is intended for use within the heating space then the surface loss of the case may be ignored. 6.5.2 Preparation of appliance The appliance is installed in accordance with 6.2 and operated, in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions, with the appropriate fuel oil. 6.5.3 Test conditions The appliance is supplied with the reference fuel and operated within ±2,5 % of the specified heat input(s) using the minimum delivered air flow declared by the manufacturer. The CO2 or O2 concentration and the temperature of the combustion products are measured by means of a suitable probe, incorporating a temperature-measuring device, located in the flue system. The sampling rate of combustion products for the measurement of temperature is approximately 100 l/h. SIST EN 13842:2005
