This European standard covers terms common to more than one type of valve.
The terms and definitions specific to one type of valve, or to one application are found in the relevant product standard or fitness for purpose standard.
Armaturen - Terminologie - Teil 3: Definition von Begriffen
Diese Europäische Norm legt die für verschiedene Armaturenbauarten bzw. verschiedene Anwendungs¬bereiche verwendeten Begriffe und deren Definitionen fest (oder gibt die Quelle an, sofern in anderen Europäischen Normen festgelegt). Diese Begriffe umfassen die Drücke und Temperaturen, die Maße, die Konstruktion, die Durchflusscharakteristiken sowie die Prüfung von Armaturen.
Die in dieser Europäischen Norm festgelegten Begriffe können auch für andere Erzeugnisse als Armaturen gelten, in diesem Fall kann eine sinngemäße Anwendung dieser Definitionen erforderlich sein.
Diese Europäische Norm enthält Begriffe für mehrere Armaturenbauarten.
Die ausschließlich für eine bestimmte Armaturenbauart bzw. einen bestimmten Anwendungsbereich geltenden Begriffe sind der entsprechenden Produkt- oder Gebrauchstauglichkeitsnorm zu entnehmen.
