Although normally used to convey domestic wastewater, these floor gullies may convey other wastewater, e.g. industrial wastewater, provided there is no risk of damage to components or of injury to health.
This European Standard does not apply to:
- linear drainage channels as specified in EN 1433,
- gully tops and manhole tops which are specified in EN 124,
- roof drains and floor gullies without trap as specified in EN 1253 2.
Abläufe für Gebäude - Teil 1: Bodenabläufe mit Geruchverschluss mit einer Geruchverschlusshöhe von mindestens 50 mm
Diese Europäische Norm klassifiziert Bodenabläufe für den Einsatz innerhalb von Gebäuden, gibt eine Anleitung hinsichtlich der Einbaustellen und enthält Anforderungen an Konstruktion, Ausführung, Funktion und Kennzeichnung für werkmäßig hergestellte Abläufe für Gebäude, unabhängig vom Werkstoff, zur Verwendung in Entwässerungsanlagen einschließlich Anlagen mit Geruchverschluss mit einer Geruchverschlusshöhe von mindestens 50 mm (im Folgenden als Bodenabläufe bezeichnet).
Obwohl sie üblicherweise zum Ableiten von häuslichem Abwasser verwen¬det werden, können diese Bodenabläufe auch andere Abwässer, z. B. industrielles Abwasser, ableiten, vorausgesetzt, dass dabei keine Gefahr der Beschädigung von Bauteilen oder von Gesundheitsschäden besteht.
Diese Europäische Norm gilt nicht für:
- lineare Entwässerungsrinnen, wie in EN 1433 festgelegt;

Close the flap and set a pressure of −400 Pa by means of the bypass valves. Open the flap and fill the trap with water. Close the flap and slowly open after about 5 s. Repeat this procedure until the trap no longer loses water, but no more than 5 times. Remove 8 mm of water height; this corresponds to the reduction in the depth of water seal due to evaporation over a period of disuse. Subject the trap on the outlet side to a positive pressure such that flow of air just occurs. Record the pressure. With the flap closed, set the desired negative pressure with the bypass valves, and read the manometer. The sensors in the trap are connected to the recording device.
