Overview
EN 12585:1998 (CEN) - Glass plant, pipeline and fittings - Pipeline and fittings DN 15 to 1000 - Compatibility and interchangeability.
This European standard specifies the essential requirements to ensure borosilicate glass plant, piping and fittings with nominal diameters from DN 15 to DN 1000 are compatible and interchangeable across manufacturers and installations. It applies to borosilicate glass systems used in process, laboratory and industrial glassplant where standardized interfaces and mutual fit are required. (ICS: 23.040.50)
Key topics
The standard focuses on the core elements needed to achieve reliable interchangeability of glass piping and fittings. Key topics include:
- Scope and applicability for borosilicate glass pipeline systems DN 15–DN 1000.
- Compatibility principles defining how components from different suppliers must interface reliably.
- Interchangeability requirements that permit replacement or reconfiguration without bespoke adaptation.
- Material designation (borosilicate glass) and its implications for jointing and handling.
- Dimensional interfaces and nominal diameters to ensure mating parts align correctly.
- Identification and marking to support correct selection and traceability.
- Installation and basic safety considerations relevant to glass piping systems.
Note: EN 12585 establishes essential requirements; detailed dimensional, pressure or test methods may be referenced in complementary standards.
Applications
EN 12585 is intended for use where standardized glass piping and fittings are required to be mutually compatible. Typical applications include:
- Chemical and petrochemical laboratories and pilot plants using borosilicate glass plant.
- Pharmaceutical and fine-chemical process systems requiring corrosion-resistant, inert glass piping.
- Manufacturers of glass plant, pipelines and fittings seeking to design products that are interoperable.
- Plant designers, procurement specialists and maintenance teams who need assurance that replacement parts will fit without modification.
- Regulatory authorities and conformity assessors referencing recognized European rules for glass piping compatibility.
Who should use this standard
- Glassware and glass piping manufacturers
- System integrators and process engineers
- Laboratory and plant facility managers
- Purchasing and maintenance departments
- Standards bodies and conformity assessors
