Overview
EN 1074-3:2000 (CEN) defines minimum fitness-for-purpose requirements and appropriate verification tests for check valves used in water supply systems. The standard applies to check valves installed in or connected to potable water pipe systems, both above and below ground, and covers valves made from any material or of any type. EN 1074-3 specifies design requirements, performance requirements and the conformity assessment method to ensure check valves are suitable for carrying water intended for human consumption.
Key topics and requirements
- Scope and applicability: Applies to check valves in water supply pipe systems carrying potable water; takes priority over product/test standards unless those are explicitly referenced.
- Design requirements: Sets baseline expectations for valve construction to ensure reliability, durability and hygienic suitability for drinking water networks.
- Performance requirements: Defines functional criteria a check valve must meet (e.g., prevention of backflow, operational stability) through appropriate verification methods.
- Verification tests: Requires appropriate tests to confirm compliance with the performance and design requirements; the standard identifies the types of verification deemed suitable without prescribing proprietary test values.
- Conformity assessment: Specifies how manufacturers or suppliers should demonstrate conformity to the standard - covering documentation, testing evidence and assessment procedures.
- Material and type independence: Requirements apply regardless of valve material (metal, plastic, composite) or mechanical type (swing, lift, spring-assisted), ensuring broad applicability.
Practical applications
Who uses EN 1074-3 and why:
- Manufacturers: To design, test and document check valves that meet European fitness-for-purpose requirements for potable water systems.
- Water utilities and network designers: To select check valves that comply with recognized performance and safety expectations for drinking water distribution.
- Specifiers and procurement teams: To include clear compliance criteria in tender documents and supplier evaluations.
- Testing laboratories and conformity assessors: To perform verification tests and certify products against the standard.
- Regulators and certification bodies: To reference a harmonized standard for public health protection and system integrity.
