CEN/TC 203/WG 3 - Soil pipelines

This document specifies product characteristics, test/assessment methods and how to express test/assessment results. Cast iron pipelines kits are usually composed of cast iron pipes, fittings, joints and accessories.
This document covers the range of nominal diameter from DN 40 to DN 600 inclusive.
The cast iron includes grey cast iron and ductile cast iron.
The roof gullies used for siphonic systems are outside the scope of this document.
Sewerage applications are outside the scope of this document.
It is intended to be used for the construction of gravity or vacuum discharge pressurized or unpressurised networks installed inside and/or outside works, above and/or below ground and in construction works.

This European Standard applies to cast iron pipeline components used for the construction of discharge systems for buildings and of drains, normally as gravity systems. The range of nominal sizes extends from DN 40 to DN 600 inclusive. This standard specifies the requirements for the materials, dimensions and tolerances, mechanical properties, appearance, standard coatings  and quality assurance for cast iron pipes, fittings and accessories. It also indicates performance requirements for all components, including joints.

TC - Corrections or new text inserted in 3.13, 4.1.3, 4.6.3, 5.7.3.3, D.2, Table D.1, Annexes G and H and various places of Annex ZA

For reasons of conformity with the rules for hENs and Mandate M/131 'Pipes, tanks and ancillaries not in contact with water intended for human consumption', EN 877:1999 has been amended by extension with the Annex ZA (see Resolution CEN/BT 113/1994 and CEN/BT 63/1996) and a modification of the Annex D for the evaluation of conformity. This amendment is described in the following pages.
In addition, the amendment of the following parts of EN 877:1999 became necessary.
