Overview
EN 15714-1:2009 (CEN) - Industrial valves - Actuators - Part 1: Terminology and definitions - provides a harmonized vocabulary for industrial valve actuators not covered by EN 736-2 and EN 736-3. Published by CEN in October 2009, the standard defines common terms for electric, pneumatic and hydraulic actuators, plus terms specific to pneumatic/hydraulic and electric designs. Its purpose is to improve clarity in specifications, testing, procurement and technical communication across the valve and actuator supply chain.
Key topics and requirements
The document is a terminology standard (no normative references) and organizes definitions into three main groups:
- Common terms and definitions for electric, pneumatic and hydraulic actuators, e.g.:
- ambient temperature, end of travel, end stop, end torque/thrust, fail-safe, indicating arrangement, manual override, operating cycle, output torque/thrust, position transmitter, seating/unseating torque, start torque/thrust, stroke, travel limitation.
- Pneumatic and hydraulic specific terms, e.g.:
- displacement volume, dead volume, dew point, diaphragm actuator, piston actuator, single acting / double acting, spring return actuator, vane actuator, maximum allowable pressure, minimum moving pressure, nominal supply pressure, pilot/solenoid valve, external leakage.
- Electric actuator specific terms, e.g.:
- controller, de-rating factor, duty, ESD (emergency shut down) command, gearbox, nominal motor current/power, nominal voltage, output drive, terminal compartment, thermal protecting device.
The standard lists clear, standardized definitions (examples above) so that technical documentation uses consistent language. It also cites related references (EN 736-2, EN 736-3, EN ISO 4628-2) in its bibliography.
Practical applications and users
EN 15714-1 is valuable for:
- Valve and actuator manufacturers - consistent product documentation and datasheets.
- System integrators and OEMs - clear specification of actuator functions, interfaces and safety features.
- Plant engineers and maintenance teams - unambiguous terms for operation, testing and troubleshooting.
- Procurement and specifications writers - precise RFPs and contracts that reference standardized terminology.
- Testing labs and certification bodies - consistent interpretation of test procedures where terminology matters. Typical uses include product catalogs, installation manuals, technical training materials, procurement specifications, and interoperability requirements in process industries (oil & gas, water, power, chemical, HVAC).
Related standards
- EN 736-2: Valves - Terminology - Definition of components of valves
- EN 736-3: Valves - Terminology - Definition of terms
- EN ISO 4628-2: Paints and varnishes - Assessment of blistering
Using EN 15714-1 in tandem with these standards helps ensure consistent, internationally understood terminology for industrial valves and actuators.
