Overview

EN 1171:2015 - Industrial valves - Cast iron gate valves is a European Standard published by CEN that specifies requirements for cast iron gate valves with flanged, socket or spigot ends. It applies primarily to industrial and general-purpose applications and covers nominal sizes DN 40 to DN 1000 and pressure designations including isobaric PN 6 / PN 10 / PN 16 / PN 25 and isomorphic series (PS 10 bar to PS 1 bar at room temperature). The standard also aligns with the Pressure Equipment Directive (97/23/EC / PED).

Key topics and technical requirements

  • Scope & series types: Defines isobaric (same allowable pressure across sizes) and isomorphic (pressure decreases with size) valve series and applicable DN/PN ranges.
  • Materials: Acceptable body and bonnet materials include grey, spheroidal (ductile) and malleable cast irons (EN-GJL, EN-GJS, EN-GJMB grades). Internal wetted parts must have corrosion resistance at least equal to body/bonnet.
  • Pressure/temperature limits: Isobaric ratings follow equivalent ISO material grades; metallic seats limited to ≤230 °C, soft seats limited to ≤70 °C. Special low-temperature grades (EN‑GJS‑350‑22‑LT / EN‑GJS‑400‑18‑LT) are required for TS < −10 °C.
  • Dimensions & connections: Face-to-face and end-to-end dimensions referenced to EN 558 series; flange connections per EN 1092‑2; socket/spigot ends to be compatible with adjacent piping. Body end port minimum inside diameters are specified per DN/PN.
  • Operation & attachments: Operating direction (clockwise to close), maximum valve heights by DN, and actuator/gearbox attachment per EN ISO 5210.
  • Functional performance:
    • Shell design strength validated per EN 12516‑4 (calculation) or EN 12516‑3 (experimental).
    • Flow characteristics (full or reduced bore) and seating design (metallic, hard-faced, or soft seats).
    • Seat tightness acceptance levels per EN 12266‑1 / EN 12266‑2 (Rate A for elastomeric seats; Rate B for others).
  • Testing & documentation: Includes strength torque test (Annex B), rules for marking, storage/transport, and manufacturer/customer information (Annex A). Declaration of compliance and PED relationship detailed in Annex ZA.

Applications and users

  • Typical users: valve manufacturers, product designers, procurement/specification engineers, test laboratories, plant operators and maintenance teams.
  • Practical applications: process plants, water and utility systems, industrial piping networks and general-purpose installations where cast iron gate valves are suitable and where DN/PN fall within the standard’s ranges.

Related standards

Key referenced standards include:

  • EN 558 (face-to-face dimensions)
  • EN 1092‑2 (cast iron flanges)
  • EN 12266‑1 / EN 12266‑2 (testing)
  • EN 12516‑3 / EN 12516‑4 (shell strength)
  • EN ISO 5210 (actuator attachments)
  • EN 19 (marking)
