Thermostatic radiator valves - Requirements and test methods
This document specifies definitions, requirements and test methods for thermostatic radiator valves referred to hereafter as thermostatic valves.
This standard applies to two port thermostatic valves with or without pre-setting facility and thermostatic integrated valves with or without pre-setting facility for fitting to radiators in wet central heating installations up to a water temperature of 120 °C and a nominal pressure of PN 10.
This standard further specifies the dimensions, the materials and the connection details of four series of straight and angle pattern thermostatic radiator valves of nominal pressure ≤ PN 10.
This standard can be used as reference in a CEN/CENELEC Certification Mark System on thermostatic radiator valves.
Thermostatische Heizkörperventile - Anforderungen und Prüfung
Dieses Dokument hat den Zweck, Begriffe, Anforderungen und Prüfungen für thermostatische Heizkörper¬ventile, nachstehend Thermostatventile genannt, festzulegen.
Die vorliegende Norm ist auf thermostatische Zweiwegeventile mit oder ohne Voreinstellung und integrierte Thermostatventile mit oder ohne Voreinstellung anzuwenden, die zur Ausrüstung von Heizkörpern in Warmwasserheizungen bis zu einer Temperatur von 120 °C und bis zu einem Nenndruck von PN 10 dienen.
Die vorliegende Norm legt ferner die Maße, Werkstoffe und Ausführungen des Anschlusses von vier Reihen von thermostatischen Heizkörperventilen in Durchgangs und Eckform mit Nenndruck ≤ PN 10 fest.
Auf diese Norm kann in einem CEN/CENELEC Zertifizierungssystem für thermostatische Heizkörperventile Bezug genommen werden.
Robinets thermostatiques d'équipement du corps de chauffe - Exigences et méthodes d'essai
Le présent document spécifie les définitions, les exigences et les méthodes d’essai applicables aux robinets thermostatiques d’équipement du corps de chauffe, ci-après dénommés « robinets thermostatiques ».
La présente norme s’applique aux robinets thermostatiques à deux voies avec ou sans dispositif de pré-réglage et aux robinets thermostatiques intégrés avec ou sans dispositif de pré-réglage destinés à une adaptation sur corps de chauffe dans des installations de chauffage central à eau avec une température d’eau allant jusqu’à 120 °C et une pression nominale allant jusqu’à PN 10.
La présente norme spécifie en outre les dimensions, les matériaux et les détails concernant le raccordement de quatre séries de robinets thermostatiques d’équipement du corps de chauffe droits et d’équerre présentant une pression nominale ≤ PN 10.
La présente norme peut être utilisée comme référence pour un Système de marques de certification CEN/CENELEC sur robinets thermostatiques d’équipement du corps de chauffe.
Termostatski ventili za ogrevala - Zahteve in preskusne metode
Ta evropski standard določa opredelitve, zahteve in preskusne metode za termostatske ventile za ogrevala (v nadaljevanju »termostatski ventili«). Ta standard se uporablja za termostatske ventile z dvema odcepoma ter z možnostjo vnaprejšnje nastavitve za namestitev na ogrevala v sistemih centralnega ogrevanja s temperaturo vode do 120 °C in nazivnim tlakom PN 10 (oziroma brez nje). Ta standard podrobneje določa dimenzije, materiale in podatke za priključitev štirih sklopov ravnih in kotnih termostatskih ventilov za ogrevala z nazivnim tlakom, ki je nižji oziroma enak PN 10. Na ta standard se je mogoče sklicevati v sistemu certifikacijskih oznak CEN/CENELEC v zvezi s termostatskimi ventili za ogrevala.
