EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, offers precise and rapid testing services within the scope of EN 1946-2 testing. This standard provides specific technical criteria for the evaluation of laboratories that will perform steady-state heat transfer property measurements by the shielded hot plate method according to EN 12667 and EN 12664. It complements the common criteria in Part 1.
Guidance is given on the organization and content of the equipment manual, calibration and maintenance files and measurement procedure document. Provides information on mandatory equipment performance specifications, equipment description, and calculations for equipment design and error analysis.
The shielded hot plate method is a well-established and precise technique for determining the thermal conductivity, thermal resistance and other heat transfer properties of materials. It involves sandwiching the test material between two plates, one heated and the other cooled. Heat transfer through the material is carefully measured.
This standard provides specific criteria and guidelines that laboratories must meet when performing heat transfer property measurements using the shielded hot plate method. These criteria ensure the accuracy and reliability of test results.
Laboratories performing these measurements must prove their competence by following the procedures and criteria specified in EN 1946-2. This is important to ensure the quality and consistency of data generated by different laboratories.
The standard may include requirements for quality control, calibration and traceability to international standards to ensure the reliability of the measurement process.
EN 1946-2 serves as a reference for laboratories, manufacturers and regulatory bodies involved in the construction industry. Compliance with this standard helps to accurately characterize building materials in terms of their thermal properties.
