Compliance of pipes, fittings and their joints with this document does not confer a presumption of fitness of the product for the transport of water intended for human consumption within the meaning of the Directive 89/106/EEC. However, until the operation of the envisaged European Acceptance Scheme for construction products in contact with water intended for human consumption and the revision of this standard, products conforming to this standard could be used for the transport of water intended for human consumption if they conform to the relevant national, regional or local regulatory provisions or recommendations applicable in the place of use. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.

For plastic piping systems conveying water it corresponds to the maximum continuous operating pressure in bar, which can be sustained with water at 20 °C for thermoplastics and 35 °C for thermosetting materials, based on the minimum design coefficient. 4 Performance requirements 4.1 Reaction to fire for applications inside building Where subject to regulatory requirements, the product shall be tested and classified in accordance with 5.1. 4.2 External pressure strength The external pressure strength of pressure piping systems is deemed to be satisfied by the internal pressure strength as given in 4.3. 4.3 Internal pressure strength 4.3.1 Determination of nominal pressure PN For thermoplastics materials the internal pressure strength of the pipe and fitting shall be determined in accordance with 5.2.1 and shall be declared by the manufacturer as nominal pressure PN in accordance with ISO 161-1 and including PN 25 where applicable. The overall service (design) coefficient shall not be less than that specified in EN ISO 12162 for the relevant material. For thermosetting materials the internal pressure strength of the pipe or fitting shall be tested in accordance with 5.2.2 and shall be declared by the manufacturer as nominal pressure in accordance with EN 1796 or EN 14364. For multilayer pipes the internal pressure strength shall be tested and declared by the manufacturer in accordance with 5.2.3.

c) in the absence of a) and b) reference to an International Standard, or d) in the absence of a), b), and c), by stating the values of his own specification and associated jointing method. Dimensions shall be measured in accordance with 5.4 and shall be within the declared tolerances. 4.5 Tightness (air and liquid) For products in accordance with this standard, leaktightness is required. Products covered by one of the standards listed in Annex A and having passed the type testing in accordance with the assessment of conformity part, are deemed to be leaktight (for standards with separate assessment of conformity parts see Annex B). Sealing rings (and gaskets) shall conform to EN 681-1, EN 681-2 or EN 681-4, as applicable. Pipe connections shall be tested in accordance with 5.5. No leakage shall occur during the test period. 4.6 Durability 4.6.1 Durability of pipes and fittings Pipes and fittings meeting the requirements of 4.3.1 are deemed to have a reasonable economic working life. NOTE The piping components are expected to last at least the lifetime of the network where they are installed. If the nature of the fluid is different from water or this fluid or water has a higher temperature than 20 °C (35 °C for thermosetting materials), guidance for de-rating the pressure shall be in accordance with the appropriate following standards: EN 1778 [13], EN 1452-2 [12] for PVC-U, ISO 13761[14] for PE, EN 1796 and EN 14364 for thermosetting materials and ISO 17456 or ISO 21004 for multilayer piping systems. Instead of de-rating the pressure, a shorter lifetime may be declared. 4.6.2 Durability of elastomeric sealing joints The tightness of elastomeric sealing joints is deemed to be durable if the sealing element conforms to
EN 681-1, EN 681-2 or EN 681-4, as applicable. 4.7 Dangerous substances Attention is drawn to NOTE 1 and NOTE 2 in ZA.1.

6.2 Initial type testing 6.2.1 General Relevant type tests shall be carried out on new products and whenever there is a change in design, in material and/or in production method, other than routine in-process adjustment and extension of the product range (see Table 3). A change of supplier of a material or stabiliser does not lead to a change in performance if the chemical composition remains the same. Material modifications within certain limits are not considered as a change of material. Guidance for these limits can be found in the standards given in Annex B. For tests previously performed in accordance with the provisions of the standards listed in Annex A, or the recognized European specification, as applicable, (same product, same characteristic(s), same test method, same system of attestation etc.) the results may be taken into account. All characteristics given in Clause 4 shall be subject to calculation and/or initial type testing, except 4.6.2 where the characteristics of the components used have already been determined by the component manufacturer on the basis of conformity with other product standards. However this does not relieve the manufacturer of the piping system from the responsibility of ensuring that the system conforms to the requirements of this document. 6.2.2 Initial type test requirements The initial type testing of the characteristics according to Clause 4 shall be performed in accordance with the sampling procedure given under type tests (TT) of the applicable product specific standards for assessment of conformity as given in Annex B. If the standard does not contain one or more of the characteristics, then testing as given in Table 3 shall apply. For products where no such standard exists Table 3 shall apply.

M is change of material;
E is extension of the product range with new size group or fitting group.
+ denotes testing relevant for the characteristic-occurrence-combination. b Only obligatory if subject to regulatory requirements applicable in the place of use (see also Table ZA.2). c In case of single burning item (SBI) test the vertical part shall be size 110 and the horizontal part size 40, which will then be representative for all dimensions.
Test reports shall be kept by the manufacturer for at least 10 years after discontinuation of the product. 6.3 Factory production control 6.3.1 General The manufacturer shall establish, document and maintain an FPC system to ensure that the products placed on the market conform to the stated performance characteristics. The FPC system shall consist of procedures, regular inspections and tests and/or assessments and the use of the results to control raw and other incoming materials or components, equipment, the production process and the product. If the manufacturer has the component designed, manufactured, assembled, packed, processed and labelled by subcontracting, FPC of the original manufacturer may be taken into account. However, where subcontracting takes place, the manufacturer shall retain the overall control of the component and ensure that he receives all the information that is necessary to fulfil his responsibilities according to this European Standard. The manufacturer who subcontracts all of his activities may in no circumstances discharge himself of his responsibilities to a subcontractor. All the elements, requirements and provisions adopted by the manufacturer shall be documented in a systematic manner in the form of written policies and procedures. This production control system documentation shall ensure a common understanding of conformity evaluation and enable the achievement of the required component characteristics and the effective operation of the production control system to be checked.
