Doorsets intended for escape routes shall be identified as such with the appropriate class according to Table 2. 4.11 Acoustic performance The sound insulation shall be determined in accordance with EN ISO 140-3 (reference method) or for specific window types in accordance with Annex B. The test results shall be evaluated in accordance with EN ISO 717-1. 4.12 Thermal transmittance The thermal transmittance for windows and external pedestrian doorsets shall be determined by using: EN ISO 10077-1:2000, Table F.1 or by calculation using: EN ISO 10077-1 or EN ISO 10077-1 and EN ISO 10077-2 or by hot box method using: EN ISO 12567-1 or EN ISO 12567-2 as appropriate. EN ISO 12567-1 shall be used as reference method for windows and doorsets, EN ISO 12567-2 as reference method for roof windows. The collective symbols for thermal transmittance are Uw for windows and UD for doorsets, i.e. the symbol Ust used in EN ISO 12567-1 is equivalent to Uw or UD and the symbol Um used in EN ISO 12567-2 is equivalent to Uw.
watertightness and air permeability: The durability of these characteristics depends
mainly on the weather strippings which shall be replaceable. —
thermal transmittance: The durability of this characteristic is mainly linked to the long-term performance of the glazing (especially the Insulated Glass Units (IGU)). Glass meeting the requirements of the standards identified in Annex C shall be deemed to meet the durability requirements. —
ability to release (only for locked The durability of this characteristic shall be ensured by doorsets in escape routes): compliance with 4.10. —

The re-sults shall be expressed in accordance with EN 1192. 4.18 Ventilation Air transfer devices integrated in a window or an external pedestrian doorset shall be tested and evaluated in accordance with EN 13141-1:2004, 4.1. Joints and openings not subject to testing shall be taped over. The results shall include: air flow characteristics (K) and flow exponent (n); air flow rate at (4, 8, 10 and 20) Pa pressure difference. NOTE 1 Additional pressure differences may be stated. The volume air flow rate qv shall be determined as follows:
qv = K (∆p)n
where K is the air flow characteristic of the device; n is the flow exponent; ∆p is the pressure difference. NOTE 2 Individual devices, designated to be installed in a window or external pedestrian doorset at a later date, are not covered by this European Standard. 4.19 Bullet resistance After testing in accordance with EN 1523 the bullet resistant characteristics of windows and external pedestrian doorsets shall be expressed in accordance with EN 1522. 4.20 Explosion resistance 4.20.1 Shock tube After testing in accordance with EN 13124-1 the explosion resistance characteristics of windows and external pedestrian doorsets shall be expressed in accordance with EN 13123-1. 4.20.2 Range test After testing in accordance with EN 13124-2 the explosion resistance characteristics of windows and external pedestrian doorsets shall be expressed in accordance with EN 13123-2.
A summary of the classification of the characteristics covered by this European Standard is given in Tables 1 and 2. NOTE 1 Any characteristics which align vertically within Tables 1 and 2 are coincidental. The manufacturer shall identify which characteristics have been determined and the level of performance de-clared. The characteristic shall be identified either by its title or by the reference number given in the first col-umn of the appropriate table. In order to enable the specifier to determine whether or not a product is fit for a given intended use, the manu-facturer shall provide the necessary product descriptions, e.g. intended use, product range, range of application, information on durability. NOTE 2 The intended use of a product can be expressed in general terms, possibly specified by means of references to the determined characteristics. NOTE 3 When specifying required levels of performance characteristics (classes/declared values) for a given specific end use (e.g. location, use and size of the building), of windows and external pedestrian doorsets, the specifier should take into account the intended use, e.g. sound protection, heat loss, climatic conditions, frequency of use, exposure. Each of the specified requirements shall be fulfilled, i.e. the "performance profile" of the product shall cover or be more favourable than the "requirement profile". Otherwise, the product is not fit for that given specific end use, e.g. if a characteristic has not been stated and national regulations are in force which require a value as part of regulatory marking for that/those characteristic(s) for that building. NOTE 4 Unfitness of a certain product for a given specific end use does not exclude, that the product in question is fit for a different, given specific end use. This is subject to examination in each individual case. NOTE 5 Annex D has been included to demonstrate the use of Table 1 and 2 as well as the use of "performance profile" and "requirement profile". NOTE 6 Guidelines for suitable performance levels for various purposes and locations can be found in national docu-ments. NOTE 7 Where characteristics are required that are not covered by this European Standard (e.g. the accuracy, finish or appearance of the product), this can be the subject of a separate agreement on a contract by contract basis between the specifier and the manufacturer, e.g. by references to other standards.
