5.1.5 Additional requirements for butterfly valves, ball and plug valves
5.1.5.1 Ease of recognition of valve position
On butterfly valves, ball and plug valves, the position of the hand lever or indicating means shall
unequivocally indicate the valve open and closed positions. The design of the indicating means shall be
such that its components cannot be assembled to falsely indicate the valve open or closed position. When
the valve is open, the lever shall point in the direction of the piping line; when the valve is closed, it shall
point in the direction normal to the piping line. Any other arrangement of the manual lever or indicating
means shall be reliably ruled out.
The position of the valve in the installed condition shall also be clearly recognizable when the manual
lever or mechanical actuator (manual gearbox, pneumatic or electrical actuator) has been removed. The
same shall apply to the position indication of multi-way valves and their stem extensions.
On isolating valves, the removal of the hand lever or the external actuator is prohibited under pressurized
service conditions. A corresponding caution note shall be included in the operating manual.
The shaft and actuator shall indicate the same position of the sealing element, regardless of the
accessories used (e.g. stem extension).
After assembly, the position of actuators and gearboxes relative to the valve shall be physically marked
in order to avoid incorrect re-assembly during maintenance.
5.1.5.2 Dead space venting in ball and plug valves
Where dead space venting is specified, the type of execution shall be agreed between the manufacturer
and the purchaser.
5.1.6 Strength of valve stem and shaft
The weakest point of the valve stem or shaft shall always be located outside the pressure-bearing valve
body.
The following data, expressed in Nm, shall be indicated by the valve manufacturer for actuator sizing:
a) breakaway torque (for opening and closing);
b) maximum allowable torque of shaft or stem load at room temperature and maximum operating
pressure in the absence of requirements.
The following criteria shall be observed for valves with a shaft:
— for isolating valves, the nominal pressure shall be taken as the differential pressure;
— dry (unlubricated);
— prolonged duration of non-operation.
These data shall be submitted to the purchaser on request.
5.1.7 Anti-blow out design
The valve shall be of anti-blow out design (see EN 736-3).
A stem or shaft shall be deemed to be blowout-proof if the valve design is such that the stem or shaft
cannot be completely forced out of the pressure-bearing body while the valve is under pressure when an
external component such as a manual lever, ratchet plate, stuffing box gland or mechanical actuator is
removed.

4 Category of valves
Classification of valves shall be carried out as stated in EN 16668. Unless otherwise agreed, valves shall
always be classified for gaseous fluids of Fluid Group 1 (to ensure universal use of the components).
Valves like condensate traps and pressure controllers that are used exclusively for steam and steam
condensate service shall be classified in Fluid Group 2.
If the result of the categorization is not I, II or III, SEP applies.
5 Requirements
5.1 Design
5.1.1 General
5.1.1.1 For threaded holes for pneumatic connections, all threads shall be G-threads, see Annex B.
5.1.1.2 The individual parts of the components shall be manufactured in such a way as to ensure their
interchangeability for components of the same make, same type, same design status and the same
nominal size.
5.1.1.3 In the absence of requirements, the performance of the bellows shall be qualified by a type
test. This type test shall be in accordance with EN ISO 15848-1 with its numbers of mechanical cycles for
a defined level of the valve (to which the bellow is fitted). Furthermore, each bellow shall pass a proof
test as per EN 14917, where the substitution of batch-related tests on the basis of statistical test results
is not permitted.
The fatigue life depending on the maximum stress range to which a bellow is exposed during the entire
service life shall be specified in the bellow documentation being considered as integrated part of the valve
manufacturer documentation.
Flooded bellows in manually operated valves up to PN 40 for process application shall be designed for
20 000 full strokes at least. As an option, at least 5 000 full strokes are subject to agreement.
Flooded bellows in manually operated valves higher than PN 40 for process application shall be designed
for 2 500 full strokes at least.
5.1.1.4 Spindle seals (e.g. bellows and diaphragms) which are designed for increased tightness
requirements (e.g. to avoid fugitive emissions into the atmosphere) and are considered as primary seals
shall, unless otherwise agreed, be provided with a secondary seal in the event of unforeseen damage to
the primary seal.
5.1.1.5 Concerning the sizing of the operating mechanism, EN 593 shall apply in the absence of
requirements.

oSIST prEN 12569:2019
prEN 12569:2019 (E)
If stated by the purchaser, it is allowed to size an actuator based on a reduced differential pressure taking
into account the effect of the hydraulic torque.
5.1.1.6 Concerning flow characteristics, EN 593 shall apply in the absence of requirements. The face-
to-face lengths of valves shall conform to EN 558, unless agreed otherwise.
5.1.1.7 On all components where an electrically conductive connection to the piping line cannot be
ensured for installation-specific reasons (e.g. wafer-style valves), suitable engineering measures (e.g. a
pocket hole with internal threading in the shell) shall be provided to ensure proper discharge of any
developing electrostatic charges to the piping line.
Durable protection against electrostatic charging shall be ensured.
The discharge resistance between any part of the component (including attachments) and the piping line
6
shall be affirmed < 10 Ohm for metallic components and < 10 Ohm for plastic-lined metallic
components.
In oil and grease-free design, special cleanliness requirements shall be a separate subject to agreement.
5.1.1.8 For valves classified in SEP, the relevant requirements of this document shall be considered
in addition.
5.1.1.9 All screwed connections, e.g. body/cover connections or screwed in parts of valves, shall be
properly secured (e.g. by mechanical / contact friction or locking) against accidental loosening.
Screwed body/cover connections that rely on the thread to seal are not acceptable.
5.1.1.10 The valve shall be designed so that the risk of media induced crevice corrosion is avoided.
5.1.1.11 Gaskets of the shell shall be radially retained against the pressure. In case of body bonnet
joints up to and including PN 25 (or Class 150) valves it is not mandatory.
Spiral wound gaskets sealing the body/cover connection shall be fully retained or provided with outer
and inner guide rings.
The sealing face of spiral wound gaskets and metallic ring-joint gaskets shall not be interrupted by bolts,
rings, etc.
5.1.1.12 Flange bolting shall not be used to compensate pipe stresses.
5.1.1.13 The design of the valve shall allow, with or without an intermediate part, mounting of a
pneumatic, hydraulic or electric actuator complying with EN ISO 5210 (multi-turn valve actuators) or
EN ISO 5211 (part-turn actuators).
5.1.1.14 Manually operated valves shall normally be closed by turning the handwheel or lever in a
clockwise direction when facing the handwheel or lever.
If anti-clockwise closing is ordered, this shall be specified and marked on the operating element.
5.1.2 Shell design strength
The requirements in accordance with EN 16668 and existing product standards shall be fulfilled.
Shutoff valves and control valves shall have no shell tapping, unless otherwise specified.
