Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/1342 of 14 March 2019 supplementing Regulation (EU) No 305/2011 of the European Parliament and of the Council by establishing classes of performance in relation to air permeability for rooflights of plastics and glass and roof hatches.
The class of performance table published in the Annex:
Class |
Lower limit value of Internal Pressure (4Pa) |
Higher limit value of Internal Pressure(100 Pa) |
Air permeability (in m3/(h.m)) |
||
A (*) |
< 1,4 |
< 12 |
B |
≥ 1,4 |
≥ 12 |
C |
≥ 6 |
≥ 50 |
Note: The boundaries of the classes used in this Table may be derived from the following formula: |
(*) In case of class A, in addition to declaring the class, the worst measurement of all pressure steps shall also be declared using the following template: Class A (internal pressure (100Pa), assessed leakage rate).
Below a summary table with some recent standards updates and upcoming dates of withdrawal (non-exhaustive):
(*) Date of withdrawal: latest date by which national standards conflicting with an EN (and HD for CENELEC) have to be withdrawn.
