Overview
EN 15767-2:2009 is a CEN European Standard that specifies requirements for water nozzles used with portable monitors supplied by fire‑fighting pumps. Applied in addition to EN 15767‑1 (general requirements for portable monitor assemblies), Part 2 covers safety, performance, classification, designation, test methods, instructions for use and maintenance, and marking for water nozzles - including use with water containing firefighting additives. This standard does not apply to nozzles manufactured before its publication date.
Key Topics and Requirements
Important technical requirements and test methods defined in EN 15767‑2:2009:
- Scope and definitions
- Covers smooth‑bore, flat‑spray and combination nozzles (types 1–4, including automatic pressure‑controlled nozzles).
- Mechanical limits
- Maximum mass by Qmax: <2 000 l/min → 4 kg; 2 000–4 000 → 8 kg; 4 000–8 000 → 12 kg; >8 000 → 20 kg.
- Maximum operating torques: lever 20 N·m; valve handle 15 N·m; rotating elements 15 N·m.
- Hydraulic performance
- Reference pressure pR = 6 bar (±0.1 bar); nominal pN = 16 bar; test pt = 25.5 bar.
- Flow rates measured at straight jet and maximum spray angle at pR; allowable deviation −0/+10%.
- Spray jet minimum angle: 100°; effective throw requirements specified (for flows >500 l/min) and ≥60 m for >4 000 l/min.
- Flush and debris handling
- For combination nozzles with Qmax < 2 000 l/min, a 6.35 mm steel ball must pass during flushing without shut‑off.
- Flush feature must have mechanical/visual engagement indicator.
- Durability and environment
- Heat test: stored 24 h at (55 ± 2) °C and still operable.
- Frost test: drained and stored at (−15 ± 2) °C for 30 min; operating elements must remain movable.
- Leak‑tightness
- No visible leakage for 1 min at pR.
- Documentation & marking
- Instruction and maintenance handbook required (datasheet per Annex B).
- Permanent marking: manufacturer ID, serial/batch/year, reference to EN 15767‑2, nozzle type, spray type, Qmax, pN, pM (type 4), jet/flush/flow positions.
Applications and Who Uses It
EN 15767‑2 is used by:
- Nozzle manufacturers for design, testing and CE‑compliance.
- Fire brigades and procurement officers to specify performance and safety in tenders.
- Testing laboratories and certification bodies for acceptance and conformity testing.
- Service/maintenance teams for inspection, servicing and replacement planning.
- Safety managers ensuring compatibility of portable monitors with firefighting pumps and water additives.
Keywords: EN 15767-2:2009, water nozzles standard, portable monitors, fire fighting pumps, nozzle flowrates, effective throw, spray angle, leak‑tightness.
