General Information
Frequently Asked Questions
CEN/TC 58/WG 2 is a Working Group within the European Committee for Standardization (CEN). It is named "Automatic valves" and is responsible for: Automatic shut-off valves for gas burning appliances fitted with: start gas flow controls, modulating valves, closed position indicator switches and proof of closure switches. This committee has published 2 standards.
CEN/TC 58/WG 2 develops CEN standards. The scope of work includes: Automatic shut-off valves for gas burning appliances fitted with: start gas flow controls, modulating valves, closed position indicator switches and proof of closure switches. Currently, there are 2 published standards from this working group.
The European Committee for Standardization (CEN) is a public standards organization that brings together the national standardization bodies of 34 European countries. CEN provides a platform for developing European Standards (ENs) and other technical documents in relation to various products, materials, services, and processes, supporting the European Single Market.
A Working Group in CEN is a specialized group responsible for developing standards or technical work within a defined scope. These bodies bring together international experts to create consensus-based standards that support global trade, safety, and interoperability.
This European Standard specifies the safety, construction and performance requirements for automatic shut-off valves for gas burners, gas appliances and similar use, hereafter referred to as valves.
This European Standard covers type testing only.
It applies to valves with declared maximum inlet pressures up to and including 5 bar, for use on burners or in appliances using fuel gases of the first, second, and third families.
It applies to electrically operated valves and to valves actuated by fluids where the control valves for these fluids are actuated electrically, but not to any external electrical devices for switching the control signal or actuating energy. An assessment method for valve designs is given by this European Standard.
It also applies to valves where the flow rate is controlled by external electrical signals, either in discrete steps or proportional to the applied signal.
It also applies to valves fitted with closed position indicator switches.
