EN 13942:2009 (E) 4 Introduction This International Standard is the result of harmonizing the requirements of ISO 14313:1999 and API Spec 6D-2002[5]. The revision of ISO 14313 is developed based on input from both ISO/TC67/SC2 WG2 and API 6D TG technical experts. The technical revisions have been made In order to accommodate the needs of industry and to move this International Standard to a higher level of service to the petroleum and natural gas industry. Users of this International Standard should be aware that further or differing requirements can be needed for individual applications. This International Standard is not intended to inhibit a manufacturer from offering, or the purchaser from accepting, alternative equipment or engineering solutions for the individual application. This may be particularly applicable where there is innovative or developing technology. Where an alternative is offered, the manufacturer should identify any variations from this International Standard and provide details. ISO 14313:2007, developed within ISO/TC 67 SC 2, has been adopted as EN 13942:2009 (ISO 14313:2007 modified). The scope of ISO/TC 67/SC 2 is pipeline transportation systems for the petroleum and natural gas industries without exclusions. However in CEN, the scopes of CEN/TC 12 and CEN/TC 234 overlapped until 1995. This scope overlap caused problems for the parallel procedure for the above-mentioned items. The conflict in scope was resolved when both the CEN/Technical Committees and the CEN/BT took the following resolution: Resolution BT 38/1995: Subject: Revised scope of CEN/TC 12 “BT endorses the conclusions of the coordination meeting between CEN/TC 12 “Materials, equipment and offshore structures for petroleum and natural gas industries” and CEN/TC 234 “Gas supply” and modifies the CEN/TC 12 scope, to read: “Standardization of the materials, equipment and offshore structures used in drilling, production, refining and the transport by pipelines of petroleum and natural gas, excluding on-land supply systems used by the gas supply industry and those aspects of offshore structures covered by IMO requirement (ISO/TC 8). The standardization is to be achieved wherever possible by the adoption of ISO Standards.” Resulting from Resolution BT 38/1995, "gas supply on land" has been excluded from the scope of ISO 14313:2007 for the European adoption by CEN/TC 12.

EN 13942:2009 (E) 5 1 Scope This International Standard specifies requirements and provides recommendations for the design, manufacturing, testing and documentation of ball, check, gate and plug valves for application in pipeline systems meeting the requirements of ISO 13623 for the petroleum and natural gas industries. This International Standard is not applicable to subsea pipeline valves, as they are covered by a separate International Standard (ISO 14723). This International Standard is not applicable to valves for pressure ratings exceeding PN 420 (Class 2 500). On-land supply systems used by the gas supply industry are excluded from the scope of this standard. 2 Conformance 2.1 Units of measurement In this International Standard, data are expressed in both SI units and USC units. For a specific order item, unless otherwise stated, only one system of units shall be used, without combining data expressed in the other system. For data expressed in SI units, a comma is used as the decimal separator and a space is used as the thousands separator. For data expressed in USC units, a dot (on the line) is used as the decimal separator and a comma is used as the thousands separator. 2.2 Rounding Except as otherwise required by this International Standard, to determine conformance with the specified requirements, observed or calculated values shall be rounded to the nearest unit in the last right-hand place of figures used in expressing the limiting value, in accordance with the rounding method of ISO 31-0:1992, Annex B, Rule A. 2.3 Compliance to standard A quality system should be applied to assist compliance with the requirements of this International Standard. NOTE ISO/TS 29001 gives sector-specific guidance on quality management systems. The manufacturer shall be responsible for complying with all of the applicable requirements of this International Standard. It shall be permissible for the purchaser to make any investigation necessary in order to be assured of compliance by the manufacturer and to reject any material that does not comply. 3 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.

Introduction
This International Standard is the result of harmonizing the requirements of ISO 14313:1999 and
[5]
API Spec 6D-2002 .
The revision of ISO 14313 is developed based on input from both ISO/TC67/SC2 WG2 and
API 6D TG technical experts. The technical revisions have been made In order to accommodate the needs of
industry and to move this International Standard to a higher level of service to the petroleum and natural gas
industry.
Users of this International Standard should be aware that further or differing requirements can be needed for
individual applications. This International Standard is not intended to inhibit a manufacturer from offering, or
the purchaser from accepting, alternative equipment or engineering solutions for the individual application.
This may be particularly applicable where there is innovative or developing technology. Where an alternative
is offered, the manufacturer should identify any variations from this International Standard and provide details.
ISO 14313:2007, developed within ISO/TC 67 SC 2, has been adopted as prEN 13942:2008 (ISO 14313:2007
modified).
The scope of ISO/TC 67/SC 2 is pipeline transportation systems for the petroleum and natural gas industries
without exclusions. However in CEN, the scopes of CEN/TC 12 and CEN/TC 234 overlapped until 1995. This
scope overlap caused problems for the parallel procedure for the above-mentioned items. The conflict in
scope was resolved when both the CEN/Technical Committees and the CEN/BT took the following resolution:
Resolution BT 38/1995:
Subject: Revised scope of CEN/TC 12
“BT endorses the conclusions of the coordination meeting between CEN/TC 12 “Materials, equipment and
offshore structures for petroleum and natural gas industries” and CEN/TC 234 “Gas supply” and modifies the
CEN/TC 12 scope, to read:
“Standardization of the materials, equipment and offshore structures used in drilling, production, refining and
the transport by pipelines of petroleum and natural gas, excluding on-land supply systems used by the gas
supply industry and those aspects of offshore structures covered by IMO requirement (ISO/TC 8).
The standardization is to be achieved wherever possible by the adoption of ISO Standards.”
Resulting from Resolution BT 38/1995, "gas supply on land" has been excluded from the scope of
ISO 14313:2007 for the European adoption by CEN/TC 12.

1 Scope
This International Standard specifies requirements and provides recommendations for the design,
manufacturing, testing and documentation of ball, check, gate and plug valves for application in pipeline
systems meeting the requirements of ISO 13623 for the petroleum and natural gas industries.
This International Standard is not applicable to subsea pipeline valves, as they are covered by a separate
International Standard (ISO 14723).
This International Standard is not applicable to valves for pressure ratings exceeding PN 420 (Class 2 500).
On-land supply systems used by the gas supply industry are excluded from the scope of this standard.
2 Conformance
2.1 Units of measurement
In this International Standard, data are expressed in both SI units and USC units. For a specific order item,
unless otherwise stated, only one system of units shall be used, without combining data expressed in the
other system.
For data expressed in SI units, a comma is used as the decimal separator and a space is used as the
thousands separator. For data expressed in USC units, a dot (on the line) is used as the decimal separator
and a comma is used as the thousands separator.
2.2 Rounding
Except as otherwise required by this International Standard, to determine conformance with the specified
requirements, observed or calculated values shall be rounded to the nearest unit in the last right-hand place of
figures used in expressing the limiting value, in accordance with the rounding method of ISO 31-0:1992,
Annex B, Rule A.
2.3 Compliance to standard
A quality system should be applied to assist compliance with the requirements of this International Standard.
NOTE ISO/TS 29001 gives sector-specific guidance on quality management systems.
The manufacturer shall be responsible for complying with all of the applicable requirements of this
International Standard. It shall be permissible for the purchaser to make any investigation necessary in order
to be assured of compliance by the manufacturer and to reject any material that does not comply.

Full-opening through-conduit valves shall have a circular bore in the obturator that allows a sphere to pass
with a nominal size not less than that specified in Table 1.
Welding-end valves can require a smaller bore at the welding end to mate with the pipe.
Valves with a non-circular opening through the obturator shall not be considered full opening.
6.2.2 Reduced-opening valves
Reduced-opening valves with a circular opening through the obturator shall be supplied with a minimum bore
as follows, unless otherwise specified:
 valves DN 300 (NPS 12) and below: one size below nominal size of valve with bore according to Table 1;
 valves DN 350 (NPS 14) to DN 600 (NPS 24): two sizes below nominal size of valve with bore according
to Table 1;
 valves above DN 600 (NPS 24): by agreement.
EXAMPLE A DN 400 (NPS 16) – PN 250 (class 1500) reduced-opening ball valve has a minimum bore of 287 mm.
Reduced-opening valves with a non-circular opening through the obturator shall be supplied with a minimum
opening by agreement.
