La norma specifica i requisiti per le valvole di ritegno in acciaio


ottenute per fucinatura, fusione e realizzate a via diritta, obliqua o
ad angolo con le estremità flangiate o a "wafer", a saldare, ad inca-
stro da saldare o filettate.
La norma si applica alle valvole di ritegno in acciaio utilizzate prin-
cipalmente per applicazioni industriali e per uso generale. Tuttavia,
esse possono essere utilizzate per altre applicazioni a condizione
che siano rispettati i requisiti delle norme di funzionamento corri-
spondenti.
La gamma delle dimensioni nominali considerate è:

DN 750 è utilizzata solo per valvole designate per classe.
DN 8 e DN 12 non sono usate per estremità flangiate designate
PN.
DN 8, DN 10 e DN 12 non sono usate per estremità flangiate desi-
gnate per classe.
Le valvole con estremità ad incastro da saldare e filettate sono limi-
tate alla gamma da DN 8 a DN 65.

1 Scope
This European Standard specifies the requirements for steel check valves, which are forged, cast or
fabricated in straight, angle or oblique pattern (see EN 736-2) with end connections flanged or wafer, butt
welding, socket welding, or threaded.

This standard is applicable to steel check valves mainly used for industrial and general purpose applications.
However, they can be used for other applications provided the requirements of the relevant performance
standards are met.

Back flow prevention anti-pollution check valves are outside the scope of this standard.

The range of nominal sizes covered is:

⎯ DN 8; DN 10; DN 12; DN 15; DN 20; DN 25; DN 32; DN 40; DN 50; DN 65; DN 80; DN 100; DN 125;
DN 150; DN 200; DN 250; DN 300; DN 350; DN 400; DN 450; DN 500; DN 600; DN 700; DN 750;
DN 800; DN 900; DN 1000.

DN 750 is used for Class designated valves only.

DN 8 and DN 12 are not used for PN designated flanged end connections.

DN 8, DN 10 and DN 12 are not used for Class designated flanged end connections.

Socket welding end valves and threaded end valves are limited to the range DN 8 to DN 65.

The range of pressure designations covered is:

a) for flanged end, wafer type and butt welding end valves:

PN 10; PN 16; PN 25; PN 40; PN 63; PN 100;

Class 150; Class 300; Class 600.

b) for socket welding end valves and threaded end valves:

PN 40; PN 63; PN 100;

Class 600; Class 800.

NOTE Class 800 is a Class designation widely used for socket welding and threaded end valves.

4.1.6 Permanent joining

4.1.6.1 Welding

Welding as part of the valve shell shall be carried out to approved welding procedures in accordance with
EN ISO 15607. Welders shall be approved to EN 287-1 and welding operators shall be approved to EN 1418.

4.1.6.2 Non-destructive tests

Non-destructive test requirements of welded joints, which are part of the valve shell, shall be detailed in the
approved welding procedure.

4.1.6.3 Heat treatment

Heat treatment requirements of welded joints, which are part of the valve shell, shall be detailed in the
approved welding procedure.

4.2 Functional characteristics

4.2.1 Shell design strength

The minimum body and bonnet wall thickness, the body/bonnet joint and bonnet bolting shall be determined in
accordance with EN 12516-1 and/or EN 12516-2.

It will be equally acceptable to verify the design strength of the valve shell by carrying out an elevated
pressure test in accordance with the requirements of EN 12516-3.

4.2.2 Flow characteristics

4.2.2.1 The seat bore shall be either full bore or reduced bore. It is permissible for any lugs required to
facilitate the fitting of seat rings to intrude into the bore of the full bore or reduced bore valve.

4.2.2.2 Manufacturers shall give guidance in their literature in respect of recommended maximum and
minimum flow velocities of liquids and/or gases and the minimum differential pressure against which the valve
starts to open.

4.2.2.3 A check valve automatically opens by fluid flow, taking into account the manufacturers’
recommendations given in 4.2.2.2, in the direction defined by the flow arrow and automatically closes to
prevent fluid flow in the reverse direction. To prevent pressure surges or mechanical damage either to the
valve or the pipework, means may be provided to restrict the degree of opening and/or influence the speed of
opening or closing.

Depending upon obturator type and flow direction, valves operate in horizontal or vertical or all pipework
orientations.

purchaser shall specify which tests are required except that tests F21 and P21 shall not be applied to steel
check valves.

6 Declaration of compliance
The manufacturer shall declare compliance with this standard by marking the valve with the number of this
standard.

e) maximum allowable temperature (°C) (item 7) and maximum allowable pressure (bar) (item 9) to meet the
requirements of 4.1.2.3;

f) product identification (item 10), only if different to manufacturer’s name or trademark (item 4) (8.1b);

g) threaded end identification (item 8) for threaded end valves;

h) internal coating, liner, lining or painting (item 15) for lined valves;

i) the melt identification on the relevant shell component (in such a form that traceability is safeguarded,
item 12);

j) year of manufacture (item 18).

For valves equal to or smaller than nominal size DN 50, where due to the physical size of the valve it is not
practical to apply the mandatory markings as specified in EN 19, items 1, 2, and 4 may be omitted provided
they are shown on the identification plate.

The sequence of omissions shall be:

⎯ nominal size (item 1);

⎯ manufacturer’s name or trademark (item 4);

⎯ PN/Class designation (item 2).

8.2 Preparation for storage and transportation

Each valve shall be drained of any test fluid. The valve shall be packaged or the body ends covered to prevent
the ingress of foreign matter. In the case of polymeric or elastomeric seated valves the seating shall also be
protected from ultra violet light.

When protective caps are used for valves with flanged end connections they shall be in accordance with
EN 12351.

standard given in Table ZA.1 confers, within the limits of the scope of this standard, a presumption of
conformity with the corresponding Essential Requirements of that Directive and associated EFTA regulations.
