Overview
EN 1286:1999 - Sanitary tapware: Low pressure mechanical mixing valves - General technical specification (CEN) defines requirements and test procedures for low hydraulic resistance mechanical mixing valves intended for use in low pressure water supply systems (see informative Annex C). The standard covers dimensional, leaktightness, mechanical and hydraulic performance, and mechanical endurance characteristics, plus the procedure for testing these attributes to ensure consistent safety, reliability and interchangeability of sanitary tapware components.
Key Topics
- Scope and applicability - valves designed for low-pressure installations; suitability described with reference to Annex C.
- Dimensional requirements - standardized dimensions to support interchangeability with sanitary fittings.
- Leaktightness - criteria and test methods to verify sealing performance under intended operating conditions.
- Hydraulic performance - assessment of flow behavior and low hydraulic resistance to ensure acceptable water delivery in low-pressure systems.
- Mechanical performance and endurance - durability tests and mechanical stress checks to validate long-term operation of moving parts.
- Testing procedures - defined methods for evaluating the above characteristics so manufacturers and test labs can demonstrate compliance.
- Classification and identification - product marking and documentation expectations to aid specifiers and installers.
Applications
EN 1286 is directly applicable to the specification, design and testing of sanitary tapware incorporating low-pressure mechanical mixing valves. Typical practical uses include:
- Domestic bathroom and kitchen taps designed for gravity-fed or other low-pressure supply arrangements (see Annex C).
- Retrofit and renovation projects in older buildings with low feed pressure.
- Component specification for manufacturers producing cartridges and mixing valves for low-pressure installations.
- Quality control and type testing in production and independent testing laboratories.
Who Uses This Standard
- Manufacturers of mechanical mixing valves and tapware - for product design, testing and CE marking compliance.
- Test laboratories - to perform standardized endurance, leakage and hydraulic tests.
- Specifiers and consultants - to select valves appropriate for low-pressure systems.
- Installers and maintenance teams - to understand performance expectations and lifetime characteristics.
- Regulators and procurement bodies - for conformity assessment and procurement specifications.
