SIST EN 60534-3-2:2002 is the Slovenian adoption of EN 60534-3-2:2001 and IEC 60534-3-2:2001. It specifies face-to-face dimensions for rotary control valves except butterfly valves, so engineers and buyers can check whether a valve will fit the intended piping and flange arrangement. The document focuses on the valve types, nominal sizes, pressure designations and tolerances needed for dimensional compatibility.

What does SIST EN 60534-3-2:2002 specify?

SIST EN 60534-3-2:2002 specifies the overall lengths, or face-to-face dimensions, for rotary control valves in the covered size and pressure range. It also sets the limits of application and shows how the dimension is measured in practice.

The standard is organized into:

  • Clause 1 - scope and exclusions
  • Clause 2 - normative references
  • Clause 3 - definitions
  • Clause 4 - dimensions
  • Clause 5 - tolerances
  • Annex ZA - normative references to international publications and their European counterparts
AnnexWhat it covers
ZANormative references and the related European publications

What are the key requirements of SIST EN 60534-3-2:2002?

SIST EN 60534-3-2:2002 applies to segmented ball and eccentric rotary control valves, with or without flanges, in nominal sizes DN20 up to DN400. In practice, that tells users which valve bodies can be specified under this dimensional standard.

The standard uses PN designations PN10, PN16, PN20, PN25, PN40, PN50, PN63, PN100 and PN110. It also notes how some of these relate to ANSI classes, which matters when a project mixes European and ANSI piping conventions.

Only raised face flanges are covered. If a project uses a different flange facing style, this standard is not the dimensional basis for that joint.

Valves with welded or threaded end connections are excluded, and butterfly valves are also outside the stated scope. That matters because the face-to-face lengths in this document should not be applied to those valve constructions.

Clause 4 says the dimensions in Table 1 are the overall lengths of the listed valves, and Figure 1 explains the measurement visually. The lengths do not include any allowance for gaskets, so users should not add gasket thickness into the dimension in this standard.

Clause 5 gives the allowable tolerances for the face-to-face dimensions in Table 1. In practice, this is the acceptance limit used for design checking, procurement and incoming inspection.

Clause 3 adds the term flangeless control valve, meaning a control valve without line flanges that is installed by clamping between pipe flanges. That definition helps distinguish flanged and flangeless installations when matching the valve to the pipeline.

What terms does SIST EN 60534-3-2:2002 define?

  • Face-to-face dimensions - the overall length of the valve between its end faces, used to verify fit in the line.
  • DN (nominal size) - the pipework size designation used to identify the valve size.
  • PN (nominal pressure) - the pressure designation used together with size to describe the valve/flange rating.
  • Flangeless control valve - a valve with no line flanges, designed to be clamped between pipe flanges.
  • Segmented ball control valve - a rotary control valve type covered by the standard.
  • Eccentric rotary control valve - another rotary control valve type covered by the standard.
  • Raised face flanges - the flange facing style covered by the scope.

Who uses SIST EN 60534-3-2:2002?

SIST EN 60534-3-2:2002 is used by valve manufacturers, piping designers, process engineers, buyers and quality inspectors in industrial-process measurement and control. They use it to select compatible valve bodies, specify DN and PN, compare flange arrangements, and check delivered dimensions against the permitted tolerance.

What changed in SIST EN 60534-3-2:2002 from the previous edition?

SIST EN 60534-3-2:2002 is the second edition of IEC 60534-3-2 and it replaces the first edition issued in 1984. The document describes this issue as a technical revision.

Which standards are used with SIST EN 60534-3-2:2002?

  • IEC 60534 (all parts) - provides the wider family of industrial-process control valve standards; Clause 3 relies on definitions from the other parts.
  • ISO 6708 - defines and selects DN, the nominal size designation used in this standard.
  • ISO 7005 (all parts) - covers metallic flanges, which supports the flange-related scope.
  • ISO 7268 - defines nominal pressure, supporting the PN designations used here.
  • EN 1092 (all parts) - covers flanges and their joints, and is referenced for European flange use.

What does the SIST EN 60534-3-2:2002 document contain?

SIST EN 60534-3-2:2002 contains one defining clause, one dimensional clause, one tolerance clause, a figure and a table. Figure 1 gives the pictorial explanation of face-to-face measurement for flanged and flangeless control valves. Table 1 lists the nominal valve sizes with the corresponding dimension L and the allowed tolerance, making the document useful for design review, ordering and inspection. Annex ZA provides the reference mapping used for European publication alignment.
