the maximum and the minimum is divided into
three approximately equal ranges
For each of the two intermediate positions of the
control device thus defined, after steady operating
conditions are attained, a 60 min test is carried out
and the following values are measured or
— Flue gas temperature (tf);
— CO concentration of flue gas (CO);
— CO2concentration of flue gas (CO2);
— CO quantity in flue gas (CO)
6.5.3.2 Test with burner flooded
With the storage tank full, the control device is set

12 h, the fuel shall not have spilled out of the burner
housing The oil level is then measured in the
burner housing The distance between the oil level
in the burner and the underside row of perforations
in the burner housing wall shall not be less

The oil regulator is then set at the closed position,
the stove is connected to a chimney and the fuel
which is in the burner is ignited and burnt off The
draught shall not exceed 0,3 mbar
Up to the end of the test, no flames, soot or
combustion gases shall escape from the stove into
the test room and the burner shall not show any
perceptible deformation

Annex A (normative)
Measuring method for determining
the smoke number
A.1 Equipment required for the determination
of the smoke number
A.1.1 Pump
A (hand) pump, by means of which 160 cm3 ± 5 %
may be sucked in a single operation through an
effective filtering surface 6 mm in diameter (i.e
approximately 570 cm3± 5 % per cm2 of effective
filtering surface); the piston stroke of the pump
shall be around 200 mm
The tensioning of the paper fixing device, which is
set in the specified position before the paper is
inserted, shall ensure satisfactory air-tightness for
the reheating operation intended to eliminate
humidity condensation
The distance travelled by the gases from the
sampling point to the filtering surface shall not
exceed 40 cm, except in special chimney conditions,
which are given in the report
A.1.2 Sampling tube
A tube with an internal diameter of 6 mm, allowing
the specifications in A.1.1 to be fulfilled.
A.1.3 Filter paper
Use a filter paper with a reflection factor
of 85 % ± 2,5 % determined photometrically For this
measurement, place the filter paper on a white
surface with a reflection factor of 75 % or more
The passage of clean air through the new filter
paper, at a flow rate of 3 dm3 per minute per cm2 of
effective filtering surface, shall give a pressure drop
of between 0,020 bar and 0,100 bar
A.1.4 Grey scale
The grey scale consists of ten numbered grades
from 0 to 9, scaled in equal intervals from white to
dark grey These grades comprise samples printed
or made by other means on a support made of paper
or plastic with a reflection factor of 85 % ± 2,5 %
determined photometrically
The identification number of each grade is equal to
one-tenth of the reduction rate, expressed as a
percentage of the reflection of the incident light on the corresponding sample The number 0
corresponds to the support paper and the number 6, for example, to a reduction rate of 60 %
The tolerance for the deviations of the reflection factor for each of the points on the scale should not exceed 3 % of its value
If the scale is protected by a transparent plastic cover, it shall be made in such a way that the test spot and the standard grades are observed through the same thickness of protective material The grades of the scale range have a diameter of about 20 mm and a central circular window 6 mm
in diameter
A.2 Determination of the smoke number
Unscrew the paper fixing device, insert the filter paper in the slot provided on the pump and screw up the device
The sampling may be carried out using either a hand pump or an electro-mechanical pump In cases
of dispute, the hand pump measurement shall apply
When a hand pump is used, ten suctions are to becarried out Each suction shall be regular andlast 2 s to 4 s The end of the suction is reached whenthe operator no longer feels the reaction of thepiston
Withdraw the tube from the flue, unscrew the fixing device and withdraw the filter paper with care.Compare the test spot visually with the standard grades by holding the band of filter paper against the back of the standard scale Examine the spotthrough the central window of the standard grades Note the number of the scale whose shade is closest
to that of the test spot For the range of the grey scale between 0 and 4, the intermediate stages are
to be distinguished particularly carefully
An equivalent opto-electronic method of determining the smoke number may be used
