1 Scope
This European Standard specifies product characteristics and describes test methods for flexible and
rigid connectors intended to be used in gas extinguishing systems (i.e. CO , inert gas or halocarbon gas)
installed in buildings as a part of a complete operating system.
This European Standard is applicable to the following connectors:
— Type 1 and Type 5: used between container valves and the manifold;
— Type 3: used in pneumatic pilot lines;
— Type 2 and Type 4: used in distribution pipework of fire extinguishing installations downstream of
the manifold/selector valve.
