Kunststoffe - Profile aus weichmacherfreiem Polyvinylchlorid (PVC-U) für die Anwendung im Bauwesen - Teil 1: Bezeichnung von Profilen aus PVC-U; Deutsche Fassung EN 13245-1:2010
Overview
The standard DIN EN 13245-1 establishes a system of designation for profiles made of unplasticized poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC-U) intended to be used for building applications. This part is applicable to light coloured and coloured PVC-U profiles, obtained by a mono-extrusion or a coextrusion process, with a laminated foil or a lacquered-coating. It specifies test methods and test parameters. This method of designation is intended to be used in product specification when the application is specified. Profiles for the management of electrical power cables, communication cables and power track systems used for the distribution of electrical power, profiles for windows or doors are not included. The European Standard has been prepared by CEN/TC 249 "Plastics", the secretariat of which is held by NBN (Belgium). The responsible Working Committee at DIN, NA 054-04-07 AA "Kunststoff-Fensterprofile" ("Thermoplastics profiles for windows") of FNK, mirrors CEN/TC 249 on the national level.
