Building valves - Expansion groups - Tests and requirements

This document specifies, dimensions, materials and performance requirements (including methods of test) for expansion groups, of nominal sizes from DN 15 to DN 25, having working pressures from 0,1 MPa (1 bar) to 1,0 MPa (10 bar).
Expansion groups are fitted to the cold potable water supply only for expansion purposes, e.g. of storage water heaters, having a maximum distribution temperature of 95 °C.
Expansion groups limit pressure in the water heater to which they are fitted, that is produced by thermal expansion of the water, prevent the backflow of water into the supply pipe and prevent the discharged water to get into contact with the water in the water heater.
Expansion groups do not control temperature and alone do not constitute the protection required for storage water heaters.
NOTE The use of the device specified in this document does not override the need to use controls (e.g. thermostats and thermal cut-outs) which act directly on the power sources of water heaters (for more information see Annex A).

Gebäudearmaturen - Sicherheitsgruppen für Expansionswasser - Prüfungen und Anforderungen

Dieses Dokument legt Maße, Werkstoffe und Leistungsanforderungen (einschließlich Prüfverfahren) für Sicherheitsgruppen für Expansionswasser mit Nennweiten DN 15 bis DN 25 und Betriebsdrücken von 0,1 MPa (1 bar) bis 1,0 MPa (10 bar) fest.
Sicherheitsgruppen für Expansionswasser werden ausschließlich zu Expansionszwecken an die Kaltwasser¬versorgung angeschlossen, z. B. an Speicher-Warmwasserbereiter mit einer höchsten Verteilungstemperatur von 95 °C.
Sicherheitsgruppen für Expansionswasser begrenzen den durch die thermische Ausdehnung des Wassers entstehenden Druck im Warmwasserbereiter, an den sie angeschlossen sind, verhindern den Rückfluss von Wasser in die Versorgungsleitung und verhindern, dass abgeleitetes Wasser in Kontakt mit dem Wasser im Warmwasserbereiter kommt.
Sicherheitsgruppen für Expansionswasser steuern weder die Temperatur noch stellen Sie allein den für Speicher-Warmwasserbereiter erforderlichen Schutz bereit.
ANMERKUNG Durch die Verwendung des in diesem Dokument beschriebenen Gerätes wird die Notwendigkeit der Verwendung von Steuereinrichtungen (z. B. Thermostate und Thermoauslöser), die direkt an den Leistungsquellen von Warmwasserbereitern zum Einsatz kommen, nicht aufgehoben (weitere Informationen siehe Anhang A).

Robinetterie de bâtiment - Groupes d'expansion - Essais et exigences

Le présent document spécifie les dimensions, les matériaux et les exigences de performance (y compris les méthodes d’essai) pour les groupes d’expansion de dimensions nominales allant de DN 15 à DN 25 et dont la pression de service 1 va de 0,1 MPa (1 bar) à 1,0 MPa (10 bar).
Les groupes d’expansion sont raccordés à l’alimentation en eau potable froide uniquement pour des besoins d’expansion, par exemple de chauffe-eau à accumulation ayant une température maximale de distribution de 95 °C.
Les groupes d’expansion permettent de limiter l’augmentation de la pression du fluide contenu dans le chauffe-eau, qui est générée par la dilatation de l’eau, ils empêchent le retour de l’eau dans la canalisation d’alimentation et tout contact entre l’eau du réseau d’évacuation et l’eau du chauffe-eau.
Les groupes d’expansion ne contrôlent pas la température et n’assurent pas à eux seuls la protection nécessaire des chauffe-eau à accumulation.
NOTE L’usage du dispositif spécifié dans le présent document ne dispense pas de la nécessité d’utiliser des commandes (par exemple, thermostats et dispositifs de coupure) qui agissent directement sur les sources d’énergie des chauffe-eau (pour plus d’informations, voir l’Annexe A).

caused by the product covered by this document:

1) This document provides no information as to whether the product may be used without restriction

1 Scope

This document specifies, dimensions, materials and performance requirements (including methods of

test) for expansion groups, of nominal sizes from DN 15 to DN 25, having working pressures from

0,1 MPa (1 bar) to 1,0 MPa (10 bar).

Expansion groups are fitted to the cold potable water supply only for expansion purposes, e.g. of

storage water heaters, having a maximum distribution temperature of 95 °C.

Expansion groups limit pressure in the water heater to which they are fitted, that is produced by

thermal expansion of the water, prevent the backflow of water into the supply pipe and prevent the

discharged water to get into contact with the water in the water heater.

Expansion groups do not control temperature and alone do not constitute the protection required for

storage water heaters.

NOTE The use of the device specified in this document does not override the need to use controls (e.g.

thermostats and thermal cut-outs) which act directly on the power sources of water heaters (for more

information see Annex A).

4.1 General

The selection of materials is the responsibility of the manufacturer, provided they satisfy the following

requirements:
a) materials and coatings shall not contaminate the potable water;

b) in a technical document, the manufacturer shall state the nature of the materials and coatings used;

c) materials with insufficient corrosion resistance (e.g. cast iron, aluminium) shall have additional

4.2 Materials

All materials coming into contact with water intended for human consumption shall present no health

risk nor cause any change to the water in terms of quality, appearance, smell or taste.

NOTE While awaiting the adoption of verifiable European criteria for testing materials in contact with water

intended for human consumption, existing national regulations concerning the use and/or the characteristics of

these products remain in force.

Copper-zinc alloys containing more than 10 % zinc are subject to dezincification when submitted to

water capable of dezincification. In the countries where the use of products made of dezincification

resistant materials is required, the materials used shall guarantee a dezincification depth less than

200 μm in any direction. For this purpose materials shall be tested in accordance with the standard

EN ISO 6509 (all parts) and the product shall be marked in compliance with the indications according to

Clause 13.
4.3 Detection of residual stress
4.3.1 General

This test shall be performed for bodies made out of brass materials and with female threads according

to EN 10226-1 and compression ends according to EN 1254-2.
4.3.2 Test

This test is based on ISO 6957. Its purpose is to verify the resistance to cracking under stress corrosion

in ammonia medium (as described in 4.3.3 b).

The test entails exposing test specimens consisting of the assembled expansion group in an atmosphere

loaded with ammonia vapour.
4.3.3 Test method (Procedure)
The paragraph below details ISO 6957.
Test solution:
a) Use solutions of analysis quality and of distilled water.
b) Solution of ammonia at 20 % (in weight).

c) The pH of the test solution is to be adjusted to 9.5 by using hydrochloric acid.

d) The test temperature is to be (23 ± 2) °C with a measurement uncertainty of ± 1 °C.

Test specimen:

e) The test specimen consists of three samples of a single assembled product. The test specimen is

inserted into the test enclosure under no stress.
---------------------- Page: 12 ----------------------
SIST EN 1488:2021
EN 1488:2021 (E)
Instructions:

f) Rinse the test specimens with a clean non-chlorinated solvent (for example, ethanol).

g) Let it dry in the air.

h) Insert the test specimens into the test enclosure along with the ammonia solution. The volume of

the container made of glass (e.g. desiccator) is to be minimum (10 ± 1) l.

i) The volume of the solution inserted is to be (200 ± 10) ml per 3 l of total volume of the container

(e.g. for a 10 l container it means (667 ± 33) ml.

j) Place the test specimens in the container in such a way that they will not touch each other and that

they will not be in contact with the solution.
k) After an exposure of 24 h , remove the test specimens and rinse them.
4.3.4 Requirements

After the test, the expansion group shall be disassembled and inspected visually for stress corrosion

cracking. No cracking shall occur on any component.
At least two samples shall be in acco
