Frequently Asked Questions
CEN/TC 218/WG 5 is a Working Group within the European Committee for Standardization (CEN). It is named "Couplings and hose fittings" and is responsible for: Elaboration of standards for couplings and hose fittings for rubber and plastic hoses and hose assemblies for industrial, chemical and petrochemical applications This committee has published 6 standards.
CEN/TC 218/WG 5 develops CEN standards in the area of Information technology. The scope of work includes: Elaboration of standards for couplings and hose fittings for rubber and plastic hoses and hose assemblies for industrial, chemical and petrochemical applications Currently, there are 6 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 design, materials and dimensions of fittings for clamp type coupling assemblies for use with nominal sizes DN 15 to DN 50 steam and hot water hoses. It covers assemblies up to a maximum working pressure of 18 bar ) (corresponding to a saturated steam temperature of 210 °C).

This European Standard specifies dimensions, types of connections, quality of materials, marking requirements and testing requirements for hose fittings with symmetrical half couplings (Guillemin system), with mobile locking ring, for hose assemblies with a maximum working pressure of up to 10 bar1) with hose tails according to EN 14420-2 and clamp units according to EN 14420-3. Couplings in accordance with this document serve as link between hoses and connections to transport liquids, solids (e.g. powders, granules) except steam and liquid gas. The working temperature range is -20 °C up to +65 °C. With the Amendment 1 a cross-reference will be added regarding the permissible working pressures and temperature stated in EN 14420-1, 4.3. Furthermore, Figure 1 will be updated.
