This standard covers a range of nominal sizes, and pipe series and gives recommendations concerning colours.
NOTE 2   It is the responsibility of the purchaser or specifier to make the appropriate selection from these aspects, taking into account their particular requirements and any relevant national regulations and installation practices or codes.
In conjunction with CEN/TS 1852-2, it is applicable to PP pipes and fittings, their joints and to joints with components of other plastics and non-plastics materials intended to be used for buried piping systems for non-pressure underground drainage and sewerage.
The fittings can be manufactured by injection-moulding or be fabricated from pipes and/or mouldings.
NOTE 3   Pipes, fittings and other components conforming to any of the plastics product standards listed in Annex C can be connected to pipes and fittings conforming to this standard, when they conform to the requirements for joint dimensions given in Clause 6 and to the requirements of Table 14.

This Technical Specification gives guidance for the assessment of conformity of materials (compounds/formulations), products and assemblies in accordance with EN 1455 1 intended to be included in the manufacturer’s quality plan as part of the quality management system and for the establishment of third-party certification procedures.
NOTE 1   It is recommended that the quality management system conforms to or is no less stringent than the relevant requirements to EN ISO 9001 [1].
NOTE 2   If third-party certification is involved, it is recommended that the certification body is accredited to EN 45011 [2], EN 45012 [3] or EN ISO/IEC 17021 [4], as applicable.
NOTE 3   In order to help the reader, a basic test matrix is given in Annex A.
In conjunction with EN 1455 1, this document is applicable to solid wall piping systems made of acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS) intended to be used for the following purposes:
-   for soil and waste discharge (low and high temperature) inside buildings (application area code "B");
-   for soil and waste discharge (low and high temperature) inside buildings and buried in ground within the building structure (application area code "BD").
NOTE 4   This is reflected in the marking of products by "B" or "BD".

This Technical Specification gives guidance for the assessment of conformity of materials (compounds/formulations), products and assemblies in accordance with EN 1566 1 intended to be included in the manufacturer’s quality plan as part of the quality management system and for the establishment of third-party certification procedures.
NOTE 1   It is recommended that the quality management system conforms to or is no less stringent than the relevant requirements to EN ISO 9001 [1].
NOTE 2   If third-party certification is involved, it is recommended that the certification body is accredited to EN 45011 [2], EN 45012 [3] or EN ISO/IEC 17021 [4], as applicable.
NOTE 3   In order to help the reader, a basic test matrix is given in Annex A.
In conjunction with EN 1566 1, this document is applicable to solid-wall piping systems made of chlorinated poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC C) intended to be used for the following purposes:
-   for soil and waste discharge systems (low and high temperature) inside buildings (application area code "B");
-   for soil and waste discharge systems (low and high temperature) for both inside buildings and buried in ground within the building structure (application area code "BD").
NOTE 4   This is reflected in the marking of products by "B" or "BD".

This standard specifies the requirements for pipes, fittings and the system of acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS) and acrylonitrile-styrene-acrylester (ASA) solid-wall piping systems in the field of soil and waste discharge (low and high temperature) - inside buildings (marked with "B") - for both inside buildings and buried in ground within the building structure (marked with "BD").

This standard specifies the requirements for pipes, fittings and the piping system of chlorinated poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC-C) solid-wall piping systems in the field of soil and waste discharge (low and high temperature) inside buildings (marked with "B") and for soil and waste discharge systems for both inside buildings and buried in ground within the building structure (marked with "BD"). Note 1: The application area "inside buildings" according to this standard, applies to the interior area of the building only.

This part of EN 1852 specifies the requirements for solid wall pipes with smooth internal and external surfaces extruded from the same compound/formulation throughout the wall, fittings and the system of polypropylene (PP) piping systems intended for use for:
-   non-pressure underground drainage and sewerage outside the building structure (application area code "U"), and
-   non-pressure underground drainage and sewerage for both buried in ground within the building structure (application area code "D") and outside the building structure.
This is reflected in the marking of products by "U" and "UD".
This standard covers PP materials without mineral modifiers.
It also specifies the test parameters for the test methods referred to in this standard.

NOTE 2   It is the responsibility of the purchaser or specifier to make the appropriate selection from these aspects, taking into account their particular requirements and any relevant national regulations and installation practices or codes.
In conjunction with CEN/TS 1852-2, it is applicable to PP pipes and fittings, their joints and to joints with components of other plastics and non-plastics materials intended to be used for buried piping systems for non-pressure underground drainage and sewerage.
The fittings can be manufactured by injection-moulding or be fabricated from pipes and/or mouldings.
