Automatic shut-off valves for gas burners and gas appliances

This European Standard specifies the safety, construction and performance requirements for automatic shut-off valves for gas burners, gas appliances and similar use, hereafter referred to as valves.
This European Standard covers type testing only.
It applies to valves with declared maximum inlet pressures up to and including 5 bar, for use on burners or in appliances using fuel gases of the first, second, and third families.
It applies to electrically operated valves and to valves actuated by fluids where the control valves for these fluids are actuated electrically, but not to any external electrical devices for switching the control signal or actuating energy. An assessment method for valve designs is given by this European Standard.
It also applies to valves where the flow rate is controlled by external electrical signals, either in discrete steps or proportional to the applied signal.
It also applies to valves fitted with closed position indicator switches.

Automatische Absperrventile für Gasbrenner und Gasgeräte

Diese Europäische Norm legt Sicherheits , Bau  und Funktionsanforderungen an automatische Absperrventile für Gasbrenner, Gasgeräte und ähnliche Anwendungen, nachstehend Ventile genannt, fest.
Diese Europäische Norm bezieht sich nur auf die Baumusterprüfung.
Sie gilt für Ventile für die angegebenen höchsten Eingangsdrücke bis einschließlich 5 bar zur Verwendung an Gasbrennern oder in Gasgeräten, die für Brenngase der ersten, zweiten oder dritten Gasfamilie ausgelegt sind.
Sie gilt für elektrisch betriebene Ventile und für Ventile, die durch Steuermedien angesteuert werden, wenn die Steuerventile für diese Medien elektrisch geschaltet werden. Externe elektrische Schalter, die das Steuer¬signal oder die Stellantriebsenergie beeinflussen, werden in der vorliegenden Norm nicht behandelt. In dieser Europäischen Norm wird ein Verfahren angegeben, nach dem die Auslegung und Konstruktion der Ventile zu bewerten ist.
Diese Norm gilt auch für Ventile, bei denen die Durchflussmenge durch externe elektrische Signale entweder in Stufen oder proportional zum angelegten Signal geregelt wird.
Ferner gilt sie für Ventile mit Schaltern, die die geschlossene Stellung anzeigen.

Robinets automatiques de sectionnement pour brûleurs à gaz et appareils à gaz

La présente Norme européenne spécifie les exigences de sécurité, de construction et de fonctionnement des robinets automatiques de sectionnement pour brûleurs à gaz, appareils à gaz et similaires, dénommés ci après « robinets ».
La présente Norme européenne couvre uniquement les essais de type.
Elle s’applique aux robinets dont la pression maximale de service déclarée est inférieure ou égale à 5 bar, destinés à équiper des brûleurs ou des appareils consommant des gaz combustibles de la 1ière, 2ième ou 3ième famille.
Elle s’applique aux robinets commandés électriquement et aux robinets actionnés par des fluides si les vannes de commande de ces fluides sont commandées électriquement, mais en aucun cas aux dispositifs électriques externes commutant le signal de commande ou libérant l’énergie motrice de commande. Une méthode d’évaluation de la conception des robinets est donnée par la présente norme.
Elle s’applique aux robinets dans lesquels le débit est commandé par des signaux électriques externes, soit par allures, soit proportionnellement au signal reçu.
Elle s’applique aux robinets équipés de contacts indicateurs de position de fermeture.
