This standard also applies to ball valves with other components in the same body.

This standard specifies the following:

  • Features of materials and design of ball valves;
  • Mechanical, hydraulic and acoustic requirements of ball valves;
  • Test methods to verify the requirements of ball valves;
  • Marking requirements of ball valves.

Ball valves must meet the same requirements as other valves.

The choice of material is the responsibility of the manufacturer, provided that the entire valve meets the requirements of this standard. The materials and coatings used will not contaminate or alter drinking water in normal or accidental contact up to 90°C.
