Devices to prevent pollution by backflow of potable water - Air gaps with minimum circular overflow (verified by test or measurement) - Family A, type G

This European Standard specifies the characteristics and the requirements of air gaps with overflow, family A, type G for nominal flow velocity not exceeding 3 m/s. Air gaps are devices for protection of potable water in water installations from pollution. This European Standard applies to air gaps in factory assembled products and to constructed air gaps in situ, and defines the physicochemical characteristics of materials of construction used for the purpose and application to ensure compliance with this document during normal working use.

Sicherungseinrichtungen zum Schutz des Trinkwassers gegen Verschmutzung durch Rückfließen - Freier Auslauf mit kreisförmigem Überlauf mit Mindestdurchmesser (Nachweis durch Prüfung oder Messung) - Familie A, Typ G

Diese Europäische Norm legt die Eigenschaften und Anforderungen für freie Ausläufe mit kreisförmigem Überlauf mit Mindestdurchmesser, Familie A, Typ G, für Nenn-Durchflussgeschwindigkeiten bis 3 m/s fest. Freie Ausläufe sind Sicherungseinrichtungen zum Schutz des Trinkwassers vor Verunreinigungen in Trinkwasser Installationen. Die Norm gilt für freie Ausläufe von fabrikmäßig montierten Bauteilen sowie für vor Ort gebaute freie Ausläufe und definiert die physikalisch-chemischen Eigenschaften der Konstruktionswerkstoffe, die gebrauchstauglich und für den Anwendungszweck geeignet sind, um im normalen Betrieb eine Übereinstimmung mit dieser Norm sicherzustellen.
