The device shall have a means to be fixed permanently to the point of use outlet such that after removal of the
device a hose cannot be connected to the point of use outlet like the destruction of threading.
8.3 Air inlets
Air inlets shall be designed to ensure that they cannot easily be blocked by deposits. Dimensions of external
air inlets d shall be minimum 4 mm (see Figure 2).
A clearance c of at least 4 mm shall be maintained between the air intake orifice and any projections, shoul-
ders or end threads (see Figure 2).
9 Physico-chemical characteristics
9.1 Materials
The materials and the coatings used, liable to come normally or accidentally in contact with potable water,
shall satisfy the EU regulations concerning water quality.
The materials and the coatings shall be:
a) corrosion resistant in accordance with ISO 9227;
b) prone to the least scaling possible;
c) in conformity with the associated standards and regulations;
d) compatible among themselves and with:
the water distributed;
the fluids or matter liable to come into contact with then;
the products normally used for disinfection operations of the network: potassium permanganate and
sodium hypochlorite.
9.2 Nature of materials
The choice of materials is left to the discretion of the manufacturer.
a) Copper-zinc alloys containing more than 10 % zinc are subject to dezincification when submitted to water
capable of dezincification. In countries where the use of products made of dezincification resistant
materials is required, the products shall guarantee a dezincification depth less than 200 um in any
direction, they shall be tested in accordance with EN ISO 6509 and shall be marked in compliance with
the indication in Clause 6.
b) Neither the mate
