DIN EN 13313:2011-02

This European Standard defines the activities related to refrigerating systems and the associated competence profiles and establishes procedures for assessing the competence of persons who carry out these activities. As a refrigerating circuit is considered not to incorporate electrical and electronic systems, activities in this area are not part of this standard. See EN 50110 for competences on electrical and electronic systems. This European Standard does not apply to persons carrying out work on self-contained refrigerating systems as defined in EN 378-1 from the initial design of the product to the complete manufacture of the product, provided the process is controlled and the methods used are checked by an organisation or individual, responsible for the compliance with statutory requirements on health, safety and environment. This standard has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 182 "Refrigerating systems, safety and environmental requirements" (secretariat: DIN), with German collaboration. Regarding the German collaboration, the responsible Committee is NA 044-00-01 AA "Sicherheit und Umweltschutz" ("Safety and environment protection") at the Refrigeration Technology Standards Committee (FNKä).
