This document specifies the requirements and associated test methods applicable to wide tolerance ductile iron couplings and wide tolerance flange adaptors intended for use with pipe components made from a number of pipe materials (ductile iron, grey iron, PE, PVC-U, steel, fibre-cement), for providing a leak tight seal over a wide range of pipe external diameters :
- to convey water (e.g. potable water) ;
- with or without pressure ;
- to be installed below or above ground, inside or outside buildings.
This standard is not intended to cover sewerage or gas applications, where other requirements may be necessary.
This standard specifies requirements for materials, dimensions and tolerances, mechanical properties and standard coatings of ductile iron products.
This standard covers ductile iron products cast by any type of foundry process or manufactured by fabrication of cast components, as well as corresponding joints, in a size range extending from DN 40 to DN 600, for an allowable operating pressure (PFA) up to 16 bar, for fluid temperatures between 0 °C and 25 °C excluding frost. For higher temperatures, up to 50 °C, additional type testing should be carried out.
It also gives performance requirements and associated test methods for restrained and non-restrained flexible joints. Joint design and gasket shapes are outside the scope of this standard.
NOTE 1 PFA may be limited depending on pipe materials effectively connected.
NOTE 2 In this standard, all pressures are relative gauge pressures, expressed in bars (100 kPa = 1 bar).
NOTE 3 EN 545 gives the specifications for the ductile iron fittings to be used with ductile iron pipes.
NOTE 4 EN 12842 gives the specifications for the ductile iron fittings to be used with PVC-U and PE pipes.

Within this diameter range, the performance shall be guaranteed at the manufacturer’s declared PFA. The wide tolerance flange adaptors are defined by the DN and the PN of the flange and by the minimum and maximum outside diameters of the pipes to be connected. Within this diameter range, the performance shall be guaranteed at the manufacturer’s declared PFA. The minimum working range of outside diameters for wide tolerance couplings and wide tolerance flange adaptors is given in Table 1.

114.1.3 Types of joints and interconnection 4.1.3.1 General Rubber gasket materials shall comply with the requirements of EN 681-1 for the type WA. 4.1.3.2 Flanged joints Flanged joints shall be constructed in such a way that they may be attached to flanges whose dimensions and tolerances comply with EN 1092-2. This ensures interconnection between all flanged components (pipes, fittings, valves, etc.) of the same PN and DN and adequate joint performance. Flanges may be designed to be compatible with different DN (e.g. DN 50-60-65) and/or different PN (e.g. PN 10/16). Certain flange adaptors, especially for repair purposes, are designed to cater for flanges other than EN 1092-2. Consequently, some dimensions (e.g. thickness, bolt holes) have been designed to suit. Such flange adaptors shall not compromise functionality or compatibility with EN 1092-2 flanges. NOTE Flange gaskets may be one of those given in EN 1514. 4.1.3.3 Flexible joints Flexible joints, restrained or non-restrained, shall meet the performance requirements detailed in clause 5. The manufacturer shall declare for which pipe materials restrained joints may be used. Supporting sleeves (inserts) may be necessary depending on pipe material, on pipe wall thickness, on joint design and on local authorities. They shall provide adequate support over the entire compression area of the gasket. The manufacturer shall indicate when supporting sleeves are required. 4.1.3.4 Mechanical properties of bolts and nuts Bolts and nuts shall comply as a minimum with the requirements of EN ISO 4016 and EN ISO 4034, grade 4.6. When applicable, washers shall comply with EN ISO 7091. 4.1.3.5 Materials in contact with water intended for human consumption Wide tolerance couplings and wide tolerance flange adaptors include several materials given in this standard. When used under the conditions for which they are designed, in permanent or in temporary contact with water intended for human consumption, wide tolerance couplings and wide tolerance flange adaptors shall not change the quality of that water to such an extent that it fails to comply with the requirements of national regulations. For this purpose, reference shall be made to the relevant national regulations and standards, transposing EN standards when available, dealing with the influence of materials on water quality, and to the requirements for external systems and components as given in EN 805. NOTE A European Approval Scheme (EAS) is in course of development in relation to the Construction Product Directive and the Drinking Water Directive ; its requirements will be introduced in this standard when completed.

NOTE The maximum joint gap between the pipes or the flange to be connected may be affected by pipe contraction or expansion occurring as a result of temperature or pressure change. The depth of engagement is related to the joint design. The manufacturer shall declare the minimum depth of engagement in the jointing instructions for each type of pipe material. The minimum depth of engagement shall be such that the pipes can support the loads imparted by the jointing system.
