The main objectives of this revision is to clearly precise the scope of this standard which is not coherent with the content of the standard.
Industriearmaturen - Messung des Strömungswiderstandes mit Wasser als Prüfmedium
Diese Europäische Norm legt ein Verfahren zur Bestimmung der Koeffizienten für Druckverlust und Durchflussmenge
von Armaturen fest, wobei Wasser als Prüfmedium verwendet wird. Dieses Verfahren ist geeignet
für:
- Armaturen mit niedrigen ζ-Werten, jedoch über 0,1, bei Bestimmung des Druckverlustes in Abhängigkeit
vom Durchfluss und vom spezifischen Gewicht des Prüfmediums;
- sowie Armaturen mit gleichen Nennweiten auf der Ein- und Austrittsseite.
Industriestellgeräte fallen nicht in den Anwendungsbereich dieser Europäischen Norm.
ANMERKUNG 1 Bei Armaturen mit ζ > 6 ist die Messungenauigkeit des Druckverlustkoeffizienten höher als der durch die
Prüfrohre verursachte Druckverlust. Dabei entspricht die Prüfkonfiguration EN 60534-2-3.
ANMERKUNG 2 Bei Verwendung von Luft als Prüfmedium sollte auf andere Normen verwiesen werden, z. B.
EN 60534-2-3 und ISO 6358.
Robinetterie industrielle - Essai de résistance à l'écoulement utilisant l'eau comme fluide d'essai
La présente Norme européenne spécifie une méthode de détermination du coefficient de perte de charge et
du coefficient de débit du fluide d’un appareil de robinetterie en utilisant l'eau comme fluide d'essai. Cette
méthode est applicable :
⎯ aux appareils de robinetterie à faible ζ, mais plus grand que 0,1 par détermination de la perte de charge,
en fonction du débit et de la densité du fluide ;
⎯ et aux appareils de robinetterie dont les diamètres nominaux d'entrée et de sortie sont identiques.
Les robinets de régulation de procédés industriels sont exclus de la présente Norme Européenne.
NOTE 1 Pour les valeurs de zêta supérieures à 6, l'imprécision du coefficient de perte de charge est supérieure à la
perte de charge provoquée par les tubes d'essai. Il en résulte la même configuration d'essai que celle de l'EN 60534-2-3.
NOTE 2 Si l'air est utilisé comme fluide d'essai, il convient que d'autres normes telles que l'EN 60534-2-3 et l'ISO 6358
soient mises en référence.
Industrijski ventili - Preskušanje pretočne upornosti z vodo kot preskusnim medijem
Ta evropski standard določa metodo za ugotavljanje koeficienta izgube tlaka za ventile in koeficienta pretoka tekočine z vodo vode kot preskusno tekočino. Ta metoda je ustrezna za ventile z nizkimi vrednostmi zeta, vendar višjimi od 0,1, tako da se določi izguba tlaka, ob upoštevanju stopnje pretoka tekočine in specifične težnosti, ter za ventile z enako nazivno dovodno in odvodno velikostjo. Ta evropski standard ne zajema regulacijskih ventilov za industrijske procese.

EN 1267:2012 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard specifies a method for determining valve pressure loss coefficient and fluid flow coefficient using water as test fluid. This method is suitable for valves with low zeta values but higher than 0,1 by determining pressure loss, with respect to fluid flow rate and specific gravity, and for valves with equal inlet and outlet nominal size. Industrial process control valves are excluded from this European Standard. NOTE 1 For zeta values above 6, the pressure loss coefficient inaccuracy is higher than the pressure loss caused by the test tubes. It becomes the same configuration of tests as in EN 60534-2-3. NOTE 2 If using air as test fluid, other standards e.g. EN 60534-2-3 and ISO 6358 should be referred to. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.

Dimensions and tolerances shall be in accordance with EN 1057. Test tubes shall be straight. Their ends shall be cut square and deburred. Their internal surfaces shall be cleaned and free from obstructions visible to the naked eye. Inner diameters are determined by the valve manufacturer unless otherwise specified in a valve, product or application standard. For valves with low ζ coefficient, the results obtained are affected by the test tube inner diameter. Therefore, the actual test tube inner diameter shall be mentioned (see Clause 7 b)). NOTE When new test tubes are made, it is recommended to make them in accordance with Table 1 and Table 2. 4.4 Pressure tappings The number of pressure taps is determined by the laboratory. At each pressure measurement section, there can be one, two or four tabs or a slot, provided that eccentricity is controlled. There should be four measurement taps for sizes greater than DN 300. Pressure tap diameters shall comply with Table 3 and length shall be at least twice the diameter. The measurement tap hole on test tube internal surface is sharp-edged and free from burrs. The measurement tape hole centreline cuts the axis of the test tube. The pressure tap hole centreline is square to axis with a maximum tolerance of 5°. The inner diameter of connection tubes between taps and pressure measurement devices shall be at least twice the pressure tap hole diameter. To avoid dirt accumulation, no tap shall be located at measurement section bottom. Table 3 — Pressure tap hole diameter DN

The sensors or methods known further to calibration or by reference to other standards, providing measurements whose systematic uncertainty does not exceed the maximum permissible values, shall be used. The accuracy of measurement shall be a) upstream pressure, differential pressure and flow rate: ± 2 % of the read value, b) temperature measurement: ± 1 °C. 4.6 Test fluid Test fluid shall be water with a temperature between 5 °C and 40 °C. 5 Test procedure 5.1 Test conditions 5.1.1 Permissible measurement fluctuations The permissible measurement fluctuation amplitude of each measurement value is given in Tables 4 and 5. If the fluctuations amplitude is greater than these values, the measurements shall be performed through a damper device. The damper installation shall not affect measurement accuracy: use a linear, symmetrical response device.

EN 1267:2012 (E) 11 5.1.2 Steady conditions
Test conditions are referred to as steady if the mean values of all measured values are time-independent. Practically, test conditions may be considered as steady if the variations of each value observed at the test operating point for at least 10 s, do not exceed 1,2 % (difference between larger and smaller values read for a quantity versus mean value). If this condition is met and the fluctuations are lower than the limit values in 5.1.1, one single measurement shall be recorded for a given operating point.
5.1.3 Permissible non-steady conditions When test conditions are not steady, the following procedure shall apply. At each tested operating point, repetitive readings of the measured quantities shall be performed at random time intervals exceeding 10 s. At least three series of measurement acquisitions shall be performed for each operating point. The percentage difference between the largest and the smallest value for each measurement shall not exceed the percentage indicated in Table 6. This leads to an uncertainty in accordance with 6.3.1. Table 6 — Difference between the largest and smallest values Number of measurement series Permissible difference to mean value % 3 1,8 5 3,5 7 4,5 9 5,8 13 5,9 > 30 6,0
The arithmetic mean of all measurements shall be taken as measured value in the scope of the test. If excessive variations cannot be avoided, the uncertainty may be calculated by statistic analysis. 5.2 Pressure loss in test tubes In order to eliminate the pressure loss of the test tubes between the upstream and downstream pressure taps from the characteristic for the tested valve, the pressure loss associated with flow rate from that tube portion may be determined as follows. For each test tube nominal dimension, connect the tubes concentrically to each other without gap between ends in the test section indicated in Figure 1. Provide a suitable water flow rate in the test facility to eliminate any entrapped air pockets. Record a series of associated flow rate and pressure loss values in the same operating flow rate range used for the valve test. Determine the relationship between test tube flow rate and pressure loss. Test this relationship again periodically, notably if the internal surface condition of the tubes has changed significantly.
SIST EN 1267:2012
EN 1267:2012 (E) 12 When the ζ coefficient of the valve is very low, it is recommended to measure, during the same test campaign, the pressure loss of the tubes and the pressure loss of the valve-tube assembly with the same configuration, and the same measurement devices. When the ζ coefficient of the valve is high, other test tube pressure loss determination methods can be used, provided that the uncertainty is in accordance with the requirements of 5.1. NOTE More information on test tubes ζ coefficient is given in Annex A. 5.3 Valve test The valve flow characteristics are determined by mounting the valve on the test facility as shown in Figure 1. The obtained flow characteristics include those of the test tubes which have to be subtracted. The characteristics of the test tubes shall be measured according to 5.2. For valves with internally threaded ends (as per ISO 7-1), the engaged thread length of screwed parts between test tubes and valve shall be as indicated in Table 7. For valves with other threaded lengths, the engaged thread length shall be the entire useful threaded length of the valve.
For valves with capillarity- or compression-type ends, the tubes used shall be mounted in thrust abatement in the valve body.
For flanged valves, connection shall be aligned without offset between the test facility flange face and the tube on which it is secured, and the fluid path shall not be obstructed by the gaskets. Provide a water flow rate so that all air is purged off the facility. The test can be performed differently according to the valve type, the scope and the specifications of the applicable product standard or of the application standard, as follows: a) determining the pressure loss for a given flow rate; b) determining the pressure loss in a range of flow rate values; c) determining the flow rate for a given pressure loss; d) determining the flow rate in a range of pressure loss values; e) determining one or more coefficients measured under different flows, in turbulent flow conditions. NOTE More information on turbulent flow and vaporisation conditions is given in Annex B. When a valve is tested to determine its flow coefficient in turbulent conditions:
measurements shall be performed for at least three different flow rate values;
the minimum flow rate value shall be determined so that the Reynolds number always exceeds 4 × 104; the maximum flow rate value shall be greater than the upper value of the operating range specified by the manufacturer. If this limit cannot be reached by the test facility, the test laboratory shall establish that the maximum attainable flow rate value of its facility is satisfactory to obtain results within accuracy compatible to this European Standard;
an intermediate flow rate value between maximum and minimum shall be determined. SIST EN 1267:2012
EN 1267:2012 (E) 13 The permissible difference between the maximum and minimum flow coefficient values shall not exceed 4 % (see examples hereto).
If the difference exceeds this tolerance, it can be due to vaporisation. Therefore, the test shall be repeated with a higher upstream pressure value. If the difference is within tolerance, the flow coefficient in turbulent flow conditions is the average between the three calculated flow coefficient values. Vaporisation shall be avoided unless in contradiction with the product standard or the application standard.
For each test, the pressure loss in the test tubes shall be subtracted from the total measured pressure loss.
