ANNEX II Note : For products having more than one of the intended uses specified in the following families, the tasks for the approved body, derived from the relevant systems of attestation of conformity, are cumulative. PRODUCT FAMILY SEALANTS FOR NON-STRUCTURAL USE IN JOINTS IN BUILDINGS AND PEDESTRIAN WALKWAYS (1/2) Systems of attestation of conformity For the product(s) and intended use(s) listed below, CEN/Cenelec is requested to specify the following system(s) of attestation of conformity in the relevant harmonised European standards: Product Intended use Level(s) or class(es) AoC system — Sealants for external walls Outdoor applications — 3 — Sealants for internal walls, partitions Indoor applications — 4 — Sealants for glazing For uses in building construction — 3 — Sealants for pedestrian walkways — 3 — Sealants for sanitary joints — 3 System 3: See point (ii) of Section 2 of Annex III to Directive 89/106/EEC, second possibility. System 4: See point (ii) of Section 2 of Annex III to Directive 89/106/EEC, third possibility. The specification for the system should be such that it can be implemented even where performance does not need to be determined for a certain characteristic, because at least one Member State has no legal requirement at all for such characteristic (see Article 2(1) of Directive 89/106/EEC and, where applicable, clause 1.2.3 of the Interpretative Documents). In those cases the verification of such a characteristic must not be imposed on the manufacturer if he does not wish to declare the performance of the product in that respect. PRODUCT FAMILY SEALANTS FOR NON-STRUCTURAL USE IN JOINTS IN BUILDINGS AND PEDESTRIAN WALKWAYS (2/2) Systems of attestation of conformity For the product(s) and intended use(s) listed below, CEN/Cenelec is requested to specify the following system(s) of attestation of conformity in the relevant harmonised European standards: Product(s) Intended use(s) Level(s) or class(es) (reaction to fire) Attestation of conformity system(s) Sealants for non-structural use in joints in buildings and pedestrian walkways For uses subject to reaction to fire regulations A1 ( *1 ) , A2 ( *1 ) , B ( *1 ) , C ( *1 ) 1 A1 ( *2 ) , A2 ( *2 ) , B ( *2 ) , C ( *2 ) , D, E 3 (A1 to E) ( *3 ) , F 4 System 1: See point (i) of Section 2 of Annex III to Directive 89/106/EEC, without audit-testing of samples. System 3: See point (ii) of Section 2 of Annex III to Directive 89/106/EEC, second possibility. System 4: See point (ii) of Section 2 of Annex III to Directive 89/106/EEC, third possibility. The specification for the system should be such that it can be implemented even where performance does not need to be determined for a certain characteristic, because at least one Member State has no legal requirement at all for such characteristic (see Article 2(1) of Directive 89/106/EEC and, where applicable, clause 1.2.3 of the Interpretative Documents). In those cases the verification of such a characteristic must not be imposed on the manufacturer if he does not wish to declare the performance of the product in that respect. ( *1 ) Products/materials for which a clearly identifiable stage in the production process results in an improvement of the reaction to fire classification (e.g. an addition of fire retardants or a limiting of organic material). ( *2 ) Products/materials not covered by footnote (*). ( *3 ) Products/materials that do not require to be tested for reaction to fire (e.g. Products/materials of classes A1 according to Commission Decision 96/603/EC).
