Introduction
District heating technology has developed rapidly since its origin and especially in recent times. Today,
there are different generations of district heating networks. The technologies of these generations are
driven by the different heat sources and operating temperatures used.
CEN/TC 107 provides a set of European standard series for rigid and flexible piping systems in district
heating to suit all generations and requirements of district heating networks in the market.
The standard documents ensure quality for factory made piping systems in district heating.
This standard series covers flexible, factory made piping systems for operation conditions as described
in the scope of part 1.
1 Scope
This document specifies requirements and test methods for flexible, factory made, buried district heating
pipe systems with plastic service pipes and bonding between the layers of the pipe assemblies.
It is only applicable in conjunction with EN 17878-1.
This document is applicable to pipes, fittings, their joints and to joints with components made of non-
plastics materials intended to be used for district heating installations.
This document is applicable to a maximum operating temperature of 80 °C and maximum operating
design pressure up to 1,0 MPa for a design service life of at least 50 years.
This document does not apply to cover surveillance systems.
NOTE For higher temperatures or for the transport of other fluids, for example potable water, additional
requirements and testing are needed. Such requirements are not specified in this document.
