Valves for water supply - Fitness for purpose requirements and appropriate verification tests - Part 6: Hydrants

This European Standard defines the minimum fitness for purpose requirements for hydrants to be used in, or connected to, water supply pipe systems, above or below ground (see EN 805), carrying water intended for human consumption.
This European Standard specifies the design requirements, the performance requirements, and the conformity assessment method for hydrants, whatever their type, materials and functions. Where hydrants can be used for fire fighting, irrigation or other function, additional requirements can be given in other standards.
This part of EN 1074 deals with the requirements applicable to both underground and pillar hydrants, in sizes DN 65 to DN 150, and PFA up to 16 bar.
This part of EN 1074 does not give requirements for the outlets or their interface with the hydrants, since they are subject to national standards.

Armaturen für die Wasserversorgung - Anforderungen an die Gebrauchstauglichkeit und deren Prüfung - Teil 6: Hydranten

Diese Europäische Norm legt die Mindestanforderungen an die Gebrauchstauglichkeit von Hydranten fest, die
in oberirdisch oder erdverlegten Rohrleitungssystemen für die Wasserversorgung verwendet werden oder mit
denen verbunden sind (siehe EN 805), die Wasser für den menschlichen Gebrauch führen.
Diese Europäische Norm legt die Anforderungen an die Konstruktion und die Gebrauchstauglichkeit sowie
das Konformitätsbewertungsverfahren für Hydranten fest, unabhängig von ihrer Bauart, den Werkstoffen und
ihren Aufgaben. Werden Hydranten für Feuerlöschzwecke, zur Bewässerung oder andere Aufgaben
verwendet, können zusätzliche Anforderungen in anderen Normen festgelegt sein.
Dieser Teil von EN 1074 behandelt Anforderungen, die für die Unterflur- und Überflurhydranten mit DN 65 bis
DN 150 und PFA bis 16 bar gelten.
Dieser Teil von EN 1074 enthält keine Anforderungen an die Abgänge oder deren Anschlussschnittstellen mit
den Hydranten, da diese nationalen Normen unterliegen.

Robinetterie pour l'alimentation en eau - Prescriptions d'aptitude à l'emploi et vérifications s'y rapportant - Partie 6: Poteaux et bouches

La présente Norme européenne définit les prescriptions minimales d’aptitude à l’emploi des poteaux et bouches à
utiliser dans, ou connectés à, des réseaux d’alimentation en eau aériens ou enterrés (voir EN 805), véhiculant des
eaux destinées à la consommation humaine.
La présente norme spécifie les prescriptions de conception, les prescriptions de performance, ainsi que la méthode
d’évaluation de la conformité des poteaux et bouches, quels que soient leur type, leurs matériaux et leurs fonctions.
Des prescriptions supplémentaires peuvent être données dans d’autres normes lorsque les poteaux et bouches
sont utilisés pour la lutte contre l’incendie, l’irrigation ou toute autre fonction.
La présente partie de l’EN 1074 traite des prescriptions applicables à la fois aux bouches et aux poteaux, de
dimensions DN 65 à DN 150, et de PFA jusqu’à 16 bar.
La présente partie de l’EN 1074 ne spécifie aucune prescription relative aux orifices de sortie ou aux interfaces
avec les poteaux et bouches car ils relèvent de normes nationales.

Overview

EN 1074-6:2008 - "Valves for water supply - Fitness for purpose requirements and appropriate verification tests - Part 6: Hydrants" (CEN) defines minimum fitness-for-purpose, design and performance requirements and the conformity assessment methods for hydrants used in water supply systems carrying water intended for human consumption. The standard covers both underground and pillar hydrants, sizes DN 65 to DN 150 and allowable pressure up to PFA 16 bar. It specifies required tests (mechanical, hydraulic, endurance, draining) but does not set requirements for outlets or outlet interfaces, which remain subject to national rules.

Key Topics

  • Scope & applicability
    • Hydrants connected to water supply systems (above or below ground) for potable water.
    • Covers all hydrant types, materials and functions; additional uses (firefighting, irrigation) may require other standards.
  • Design requirements
    • Sealing materials must comply with EN 681 series.
    • Inlet flanges (if fitted) per EN 1092-2.
    • Preferred manual closing direction: clockwise (anticlockwise must be marked).
    • Breakable (separable) pillar hydrants: breaking system located above ground and replaceable in situ.
  • Performance requirements and tests
    • Mechanical strength: internal pressure, obturator resistance, bending and above-ground force resistance (normative test methods in Annexes A–B).
    • Leak-tightness: to internal and external pressure, seat tightness.
    • Hydraulic characteristics, resistance to disinfection products, endurance testing and draining system performance.
    • Example torque requirements for underground hydrants (as given in the standard): MOT (maximum operating torque) and MST (minimum strength torque) specified per DN (e.g., DN 65 MOT 85 Nm / MST 170 Nm).
  • Conformity assessment
    • Type testing, production control and quality system checks, marking and packaging requirements are defined.

Applications

  • Specifying and procuring hydrants for municipal and utility water distribution systems.
  • Guidance for manufacturers on design, testing and CE/national conformity procedures.
  • Reference for testing laboratories performing durability, leak-tightness and mechanical strength tests.
  • Useful for asset owners, engineers and procurement teams to ensure hydrants meet fitness-for-purpose criteria for potable water networks.

Related Standards

この記事では、European Standard EN 1074-6: 2008について説明されています。この規格は、人間が飲むために意図された水を運ぶ、地上または地下(EN 805参照)の水道管システムで使用される給水栓のための最小限の目的適合要件を定義しています。 このヨーロッパ規格では、給水栓の種類、材料、機能に関わらず、設計要件、性能要件、および適合性評価方法を指定しています。給水栓が消防、灌漑、またはその他の機能に使用できる場合、他の規格で追加要件が示される場合があります。 EN 1074のこの部分は、地下および柱状の給水栓に適用される要件について取り扱っており、DN 65からDN 150のサイズおよび最大16バールの圧力を対象としています。 EN 1074のこの部分では、給水栓の出口やそれらのインターフェースの要件は示されていませんが、それらは国内規格に準拠する必要があります。

The article discusses the European Standard EN 1074-6:2008, which outlines the necessary requirements for hydrants used in water supply pipe systems. It specifies the design, performance, and conformity assessment method for all types of hydrants, regardless of their materials or functions. The standard applies to both underground and pillar hydrants in sizes DN 65 to DN 150, with a maximum pressure of 16 bar. It should be noted that the standard does not cover requirements for hydrant outlets or their interface, as those are regulated by national standards.
