Sanitary tapware - General specifications for aerators

This document specifies:
- the dimensional, mechanical, hydraulic and acoustic characteristics with which sanitary tapware aerators (with and without flow regulation) should comply;
- the procedures for testing these characteristics.
This document is applicable to:
- Sanitary tapware aerators intended to be mounted on tapware used with sanitary appliances in toilets, bathrooms and kitchens (e.g. single taps, combination tap assemblies, mechanical mixing valves, thermostatic mixing valves);
- Sanitary tapware aerators used under the following pressure and temperature conditions (see Table 1).
[Table 1: Conditions for the use of aerators]
NOTE 1   Sanitary tapware aerators can only be connected downstream of the obturator of the sanitary tapware product.
NOTE 2   For the purposes of brevity, sanitary tapware aerators will be detailed only as aerators in the rest of this document.
NOTE 3   The tests described in this document are type tests (laboratory tests) and not quality control tests carried out during manufacture.
NOTE 4   Aerator swivels are to be tested in combination with a specific aerator only and are therefore considered to be sanitary tapware accessories. (Testing of the stand-alone swivels is therefore not covered by the scope of this document. Where swivels are used they are considered to be part of the tapware constructions, e.g. for bidet taps).

ANMERKUNG 2   Der Kürze halber werden Strahlregler von Sanitärarmaturen im Rest dieses Dokuments lediglich als Strahlregler aufgeführt.
ANMERKUNG 3   Die in diesem Dokument beschriebenen Prüfungen sind Typ-Anerkennungsprüfungen (im Laboratorium) und nicht für die Fertigungskontrolle vorgesehen.
ANMERKUNG 4   Strahlreglergelenke sind ausschließlich zusammen mit einem spezifischen Strahlregler zu prüfen und daher als Zubehörteile für Sanitärarmaturen anzusehen. (Die Prüfung eigenständiger Gelenke liegt daher außerhalb des Anwendungsbereichs dieses Dokuments. Wenn Gelenke verwendet werden, werden sie als Teil der Armaturkontruktionen betrachtet, z. B. für Bidetarmaturen).

Robinetterie sanitaire - Spécifications générales pour les aérateurs

Le présent document spécifie :
- les caractéristiques dimensionnelles, mécaniques, hydrauliques et acoustiques auxquelles il convient que les aérateurs de robinetterie sanitaire (avec et sans régulation du débit) répondent ;
- les modes opératoires d’essai permettant de contrôler ces caractéristiques.
Le présent document est applicable :
- aux aérateurs de robinetterie sanitaire destinés à être montés sur les robinetteries équipant les appareils sanitaires installés dans les toilettes, les salles de bains et les cuisines (par exemple robinets simples, mélangeurs, mitigeurs mécaniques, mitigeurs thermostatiques) ;
- aux aérateurs de robinetterie sanitaire utilisés dans les conditions de pression et de température suivantes (voir le Tableau 1).
[Tableau 1 — Conditions d’utilisation des aérateurs]
NOTE 1   Ces aérateurs de robinetterie sanitaire doivent être connectés seulement à l’aval de l’obturateur du produit de robinetterie sanitaire.
NOTE 2   Pour alléger le texte, les aérateurs de robinetterie sanitaire seront simplement appelés « aérateurs » dans le reste du présent document.
NOTE 3   Les essais décrits dans le présent document sont des essais de type (essais en laboratoire) et non des essais de contrôle qualité effectués en cours de fabrication.
NOTE 4   Les joints articulés d’aérateurs doivent être soumis à l’essai uniquement avec un aérateur spécifique et ils sont donc considérés comme des accessoires de robinetterie sanitaire. (L’essai des joints articulés seuls n’est donc pas couvert par le domaine d’application du présent document. Lorsque des joints articulés sont utilisés, ils sont considérés comme faisant partie des constructions de robinetterie, par exemple pour les robinets de bidets).

Overview

EN 246:2021 (CEN) - "Sanitary tapware - General specifications for aerators" defines the dimensional, mechanical, hydraulic and acoustic requirements and the laboratory test procedures for sanitary tapware aerators. Applicable to aerators mounted on taps and mixing valves used in toilets, bathrooms and kitchens, the standard covers devices with and without integrated flow regulators and specifies operational limits (dynamic pressure 0.05–0.5 MPa; recommended 0.1–0.5 MPa; temperature ≤70 °C, recommended ≤65 °C). EN 246 is a type‑test standard (laboratory tests) rather than an in‑production quality control specification.

Key Topics

  • Scope & designation
    • Applies to aerators fitted downstream of the tap obturator; designation includes type (air intake or laminar), thread dimension and acoustic group.
  • Dimensions
    • Standard thread sizes and dimensional limits are given for common fittings (e.g., M22x1 female; M24x1 and M28x1 male) with specific tolerances described in clauses 7.1–7.3.
  • Hydraulic characteristics
    • Test procedures and flow tolerances for aerators with and without integrated flow regulators (see Clause 10 and Clause 11).
  • Mechanical performance
    • High‑temperature mechanical tests and pressure resistance for housings with plastic threads (Clause 10.2 and Clause 12).
  • Acoustics
    • Noise emission testing and acoustic grouping follow laboratory methods referenced to EN ISO 3822 series (Clause 10.3).
  • Endurance & pressure testing
    • Specific endurance tests for aerators with integrated flow regulators (Clause 11.2) and pressure resistance checks (Clause 12).
  • Materials & hygiene
    • Materials in contact with potable water must be safe and not affect water quality; exposed plated surfaces to comply with EN 248.
  • Marking & identification
    • Requirements for manufacturer identification, acoustic group coding and product coding to enable traceability.
  • Testing regime
    • Defined test sequence (dimensions, hydraulic, mechanical, acoustic, endurance) and note that swivels are tested only in combination with a specific aerator.

Applications

  • For manufacturers designing aerators or tapware outlets to ensure dimensional and performance compliance.
  • For test laboratories conducting type tests for hydraulic performance, acoustic classification, endurance and pressure resistance.
  • For specifiers, procurement teams and regulatory bodies selecting compliant tapware and aerators for domestic and commercial sanitary installations.
  • For plumbers and installers to verify compatibility with tap outlets (thread sizes, recommended pressure/temperature ranges).

Related standards

  • EN 200 - Sanitary tapware (single & combination taps)
  • EN 248 - Electrodeposited Ni‑Cr coatings
  • EN 817 - Mechanical mixing valves
  • EN ISO 3822‑1 / EN ISO 3822‑4 - Acoustic test methods for water‑supply appliances
  • ISO 49 - Threaded malleable cast iron fittings

The given article specifies the general requirements for sanitary tapware aerators. It outlines the dimensional, mechanical, hydraulic, and acoustic characteristics that aerators should meet, as well as the testing procedures for these characteristics. The document applies to aerators used in toilets, bathrooms, and kitchens, under specific pressure and temperature conditions. It clarifies that aerators can only be connected downstream of the tapware product and that the tests mentioned are laboratory tests and not quality control tests during manufacturing. Additionally, it mentions that aerator swivels are considered tapware accessories and are not included in the scope of this document, unless used with specific aerators.

この記事は、衛生用蛇口のエアレーターに関する一般的な仕様を定めています。エアレーターが満たすべき寸法、機械的特性、水圧特性、騒音特性について指定し、これらの特性を試験する手順を示しています。この文書は、トイレ、浴室、キッチンで使用される蛇口用のエアレーターに適用されます。また、特定の圧力と温度条件下で使用されることを明示しています。エアレーターは、衛生用蛇口製品のオブチュレーターの下流にのみ接続できることを注意しています。また、この文書で説明されているテストは、製造中の品質管理テストではなく、タイプテスト(実験室テスト)であることに留意しています。さらに、エアレータースイベルは、特定のエアレーターとの組み合わせでのみテストされ、そのため本文書の対象外とされています(ただしビデタップなどの蛇口構造の一部として使用される場合は含まれます)。
