EN 1074-1 Standard Method for Valves for Water Supply, Fit for Purpose Requirements and Appropriate Verification Tests

EUROLAB laboratory provides testing and compliance services within the scope of EN 1074-1 test standard. This European standard defines minimum fitness for purpose requirements for valves to be used in or connected to above-ground or underground water supply piping systems (see prEN 805, including counter valves) and is also suitable for raw or processed piping systems.

This standard specifies the general design requirements, performance requirements and conformity assessment method for valves regardless of type and material.

This standard addresses requirements common to various valve types; valid only when cited by reference in one of the other parts of this standard.

Under the conditions of use defined in this standard, all materials, including lubricants in contact with water for human consumption, will not affect their organoleptic, physico-chemical and microbiological properties as defined in the national regulations in force in the country of use.

Under the conditions of use defined in this standard, all internal surfaces in constant contact with the water in the pipeline will be resistant to corrosion and aging by material selection or protected by appropriate methods.
