5 Classification Wall-hung urinals are classified as described below: Class 1 : Wall-hung urinals intended to be installed in drainage systems of type I, II or IV in accordance with EN 12056-2 and tested in accordance with Clause 6. Class 2 : Wall-hung urinals intended to be installed in drainage systems of type III in accordance with EN 12056-2 and tested in accordance with Clause 7.
EN 13407:2006 (E) 8 6 Functional requirements and test methods for class 1 products 6.1 Depth of water seal When tested as described in 6.6.1.2, the depth of water seal in urinals of types I and II shall be not less than 50 mm. Ensure that the trap will be re-filled up to not less than 50 mm. Traps in accordance with EN 274-1 are exempted from this test. 6.2 Flushing requirements 6.2.1 Wash of bowl When tested as described in 6.6.1.3.1, the arithmetic average of any un-flushed area of the surface to be tested shall not be greater than 80 cm2 after five flushing operations. The surface to be tested is defined as described below: for urinals with flushing rim: the area below the flushing rim and above the water surface in the trap; for urinals without flushing rim: the surface enclosed by an angle of 25 ° on the surface of urinal beginning from the central point of the water inflow and a line in a distance of 80 mm from the edge of the bowl (see Figure 4). Dimensions in millimetres

EN 13407:2006 (E) 9 When tested as described in 6.6.1.3.2, type I urinals shall flush with a siphonic action when not connected to the drainage pipe. Urinals of types II and III are excluded from this test. 6.2.3 Oversplashing When tested as described in 6.6.1.3.3, the flushing water shall not splash beyond the edge of the bowl and wet the floor. Only a few small drops on the floor are permissible. 6.2.4 Discharge When tested as described in 6.6.1.3.4, no flushing water shall run over the rim of the bowl. 6.3 Water absorption When tested as described in 6.6.2, the arithmetic average for water absorption of glazed ceramic urinals shall not exceed 0,75 % by mass where no individual value shall exceed 1,00 %. Experience has shown that urinals made of stainless steel comply with this requirement. 6.4 Load resistance When tested in accordance with 6.6.3, the wall-hung urinal shall not crack, become detached from the wall or show permanent distortion. 6.5 Durability of class 1 products Class 1 products conforming with the requirements of 6.1 to 6.4 are deemed to be durable. 6.6 Test methods 6.6.1 Testing the depth of water seal and flushing tests 6.6.1.1 General For testing the depth of water seal and flushing requirements with the device(s) indicated by the manufacturer, i.e. a flush valve in accordance with Annex A and/or with a flushing cistern in accordance with either Annex B or C, install the urinal to be tested in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions on a firm flat vertical surface and connect the water inlet and the trap. The flow rate shall be adjusted in accordance with the manufacturer's specification. 6.6.1.2 Depth of water seal Fill the trap with water by flushing twice. After the second flush, check that the trap complies with 6.1. 6.6.1.3 Flushing tests 6.6.1.3.1 Sawdust test 6.6.1.3.1.1 Test apparatus For urinals without rim, a template made of a flexible sheet in accordance with Figure 5.

Figure 5 — Template for testing urinals without flushing rim 6.6.1.3.1.2 Test material 20 g of fine dry wood sawdust. 6.6.1.3.1.3 Method For urinals without rim draw the perimeter of the surface to be tested (see Figure 4) using the template and a water resistant ink. Moisten the surface to be tested of all types of urinals. Immediately afterwards, sprinkle the sawdust as completely and evenly as possible over the moistened surface. Flush the urinal with the flushing volume and/or flow rate indicated by the manufacturer and measure any
un-flushed area of the surface to be tested. Perform this procedure five times and check the compliance with 6.2.1. 6.6.1.3.2 Flushing of three plastics balls 6.6.1.3.2.1 Test material Three balls of non-absorbent material, e.g. polyethylene, each having a mass of (3,7 ± 0,2) g and a diameter of (20 ± 0,2) mm1). 6.6.1.3.2.2 Method For each flushing operation place the three balls into the urinal. Without the urinal being connected to a drainage pipe, flush the urinal with the flushing volume and/or flow rate specified by the manufacturer. Verify that the balls are flushed out of the trap of the urinal. Remove any balls left in the urinal or its trap.

EN 13407:2006 (E) 11 Perform the test five times, checking for compliance with the requirements of 6.2.2 each time. 6.6.1.3.3 Oversplashing test Using the flushing device(s) with the maximum volume for flushing cistern and maximum flow rate for flush valve in accordance with Table 2, flush the urinal and record any visible evidence of water on the floor in the area below. 6.6.1.3.4 Discharge The test is made with the maximum flow rate in accordance with Table 2 for a minimum of 2 min in the case of a flush being provided by a flush valve, and with the maximum flushing volume in accordance with Table 2 in the case of a flush being provided by a flushing cistern in accordance with 4.2. Record any evidence of water flowing over the rim of the bowl. 6.6.2 Determination of water absorption 6.6.2.1 Test apparatus: balance accurate to 0,05 g; oven controlled at a test temperature of (105 ± 2) °C; desiccator with fresh prepared silica gel; chamois leather and a fine brush; heated bath with constant water level; deionised water; pair of fine tweezers. 6.6.2
