Foreword
This European Standard has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 191 "Fixed
fire fighting systems", the secretariat of which is held by BSI.
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 September 2001, and
conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by December 2002.
This European Standard has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the
European Commission and the European Free Trade Association, and supports essential
requirements of EU Directive(s).
According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations
of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium,
Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Iceland, Ireland, Italy,
Luxembourg, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the United
Kingdom.
For relationship with EU Directive(s), see informative Annex ZA, which is an integral part of

8 Evaluation of conformity
8.1 General
The compliance of a wet alarm valve assembly with the requirements of this standard shall
be demonstrated by:
- initial type testing
- factory production control by the manufacturer.
8.2 Initial type testing
Initial type testing shall be performed on first application of this standard. Tests previously
performed in accordance with the provisions of this standard (product, characteristic, test
method, sampling method and system of attestation of conformity etc.) may be taken into
account. In addition, initial type testing shall be performed at the beginning of the production
of a product type or at the beginning of a new method of production (where these may affect
the stated properties).
All characteristics given in clause 4, and where appropriate clause 5, shall be subject to
initial type testing.
8.3 Factory production control (FPC)
The supplier shall establish, document and maintain an FPC system to ensure that the
products placed on the market conform with the stated performance characteristics.
The FPC system shall consist of procedures, regular inspections and tests and/or
assessments and the use of the results to control raw and other incoming materials or
components, equ
