EN 13598-1:2010 (E) 3 Foreword This document (EN 13598-1:2010) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 155 “Plastics piping systems and ducting systems”, the secretariat of which is held by NEN. This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by June 2011, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by June 2011. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. CEN [and/or CENELEC] shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. This document supersedes EN 13598-1:2003. The main changes compared to the previous edition are: a) the opening of the standard to allow the controlled use of external reclaim materials (Annex A); b) increased testing detail for mechanical saddles (Annex B). This European Standard is a supplementary standard for System Standards for plastics piping systems of a particular material for a specified application. There are a number of such System Standards. System Standards are based on the results of the work being undertaken in ISO/TC 138 “Plastics pipes, fittings and valves for the transport of fluids”, which is a Technical Committee of the International Organisation for Standardisation (ISO). They are supported by separate standards on test methods and by European Standards for thermoplastic underground drainage and sewerage systems, to which references are made throughout the System Standard. The System Standards are consistent with general standards on functional requirements and on recommended practice for installation. This European Standard consists of the following parts: under the general title Plastics piping systems for non-pressure underground drainage and sewerage — Unplasticized poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC-U), polypropylene (PP) and polyethylene (PE):  Part 1: Specifications for ancillary fittings including shallow inspection chambers (this standard);  Part 2: Specifications for manholes and inspection chambers in traffic areas and deep underground installations;  Part 3: Guidance for the assessment of conformity (a Technical Specification is under preparation). This document includes a bibliography. According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom.

Chamber bases, including the first 300 mm of any integral riser, shall be sized as per nominal size of the riser. All separate riser components and integral risers above the first 300 mm shall have a minimum wall thickness for the size as the lowest stiffness class of the above standards. 6.2.4 Diameters and length of engagement (Amin) of sockets, wall thickness of sockets for pipe connections and length of spigots The diameters and lengths and wall thicknesses of sockets intended for jointing to pipes to other standards and the length of moulded spigots shall not be less than those specified in EN 1401-1, EN 1852-1, EN 12666-1,
EN 13476-1, EN 13476-2, EN 13476-3 and EN 14758-1 for a fitting of the same material and nominal diameter. 6.3 Additional requirements 6.3.1 Inspection chambers The internal dimensions of inspection chambers shall conform to 3.1.5 and to the minima specified in EN 476:1997 (see Figure 5.) Dimensions of inspection chamber riser shafts and dimensions of their connecting sockets on inspection chamber bodies shall be declared by the manufacturer. 6.3.2 Access fittings Circular openings in access fittings shall have a minimum diameter greater than 50 % of the internal diameter of the fitting subject to a minimum of 90 mm. Rectangular access fittings shall have minimum opening dimensions of 150 mm and 90 mm measured on their longitudinal and transverse centre lines. NOTE 1 The performance of the access opening can be measured with the length of a 50 mm diameter rigid cylinder capable of passing through the opening and the outlet of the access fitting, when connected to SDR 41 pipe spigots or sockets (where the access fitting has been designed for use with a non interchangeable pipe then the pipe for which it was designed should be used). The preferred lengths of the rigid cylinder in millimetres should be: 160, 200, 250, 315, 400, 500, 630 which SIST EN 13598-1:2011



EN 13598-1:2010 (E) 10 simulates the maximum length of rodding, jetting and C.C.T.V. equipment used for maintenance and inspection. The preferred length is declared by the manufacturer. NOTE 2 National regulations or practices can require larger openings in some circumstances. 7 Types of ancillary fittings This standard is applicable for the following types of ancillary fittings; other designs of ancillary fittings for the same application are permitted: a) Sealed access fittings (see Figure 1); b) Rodding point covers (see Figure 2); c) Rodding tees (see Figure 3); d) Mechanical saddles (see Figure 4); e) Inspection chambers shallow (see Figure 5). NOTE 1 Preferred nominal angles for mechanical saddle branches are 45° and 90°. NOTE 2 The figures are schematic sketches only to indicate the design. They do not necessarily represent the manufactured components. The following figures are examples of ancillary fittings, other designs are possible which can be required to conform to national requirements and/or local practice.
