3、immer) British Standards Institution BS 1212 : Part 1 : 1990 Foreword This Part of BS 1212 has been prepared under the direction of the Building Services Standards Committee and specifies requirements for piston type float operated valves (exclud- ing floats). It supersedes BS 1212 : Part 1 : 1953,

4、which is withdrawn. The new features in this Part of BS 1212 include the following: (a) the possible production of certain components from plastics materials; (b) an extension of the range of sizes of plastics seats; (c) a seat numbering system; (d) a bottom entry inlet connection and its associated

5、 inlet elbow, with adjustable stay; (e) a recognition of the greater lifting effort of plastics floats over copper floats of equivalent size; (f) the supply of size 3/8 and size 12 levers with a downturn portion fitted with a float adjuster and thumb screw; (9) a further method of production for two

6、 piece levers (h) a test for plastics backnut strength, in line with BS 1212 : Part 3; (j) a test for plastics locknut strength; (k) a recognition of current manufacturing practice by deletion of reference to the use of agate tipped seats. Due to the fact that valves covered by this Part of BS 1212

7、do not provide the appropriate backsiphonage protection required by the Water Byelaws, it is recommended in the case of nominal size valves that a valve covered by one of the other Parts of BS 1212 be used for applications where backsiphonage protection is required. Alternatively, a valve covered by

8、 BS 1212 : Part 1 can be used in these cases if a suitable protective device is connected to the feed piper to the valve. For nominal size % and above, such a device should be used whenever backsiphonage protection is required. Advice on suitable protective devices is given in the Water Research Cen

9、tre publication Water Fittings and Materials Directory“ and in BS 6700. This Part of BS 1212 has been revised in metric terms, except for certain thread sizes and pipe thread designations which are retained in imperial sizes to accord with BS 2779.

17、90 I I Section one. General 1 Scope This Part of BS 1212 specifies materials, dimensions, tolerances and performance requirements for piston type float operated valves (copper alloy body) of nominal sizes 3/8, /z , 3/4, 1, 1 14, 1 h and 2 with six patterns of body, designated I, II, Ill, IV, V and V

18、I, intended for use with floats complying with BS 1968 and BS 2456. NOTE 1. The nominal sizes correspond with the pipe size of the thread on the inlet shank as specified in BS 2779. The nominal sizes 3/x and 1 /4 are formed by making special inlets on the sizes and 1 /z respectively. Nominal sizes 3

19、/a and /2 are made in body form pattern I or 0. NOTE 2. The titles of the publications referred to in this standard are listed on the inside back cover. 2 Definition For the purposes of this Part of BS 1212 the following definition applies. piston type float operated valve. A non-equilibrium float o

20、perated valve in which the flow of water is controlled by the horizontal movement of a piston. 3 Designation for ordering Piston type float operated valves shall be designated by the following: (a) the nominal size; (b) the words piston type float operated valve; (c) the seat number and the body wit

21、h which it can be used; (d) the number of this British Standard in the form BS 1212/1; (e) bottom entry connection, if required. .Example. Nominal size /z piston type float operated valve, no. 6 seat, body II, BS 1212/1. 4 Marking 4.1 General A piston type float operated valve shall be permanently a

22、nd legibly marked in accordance with 4.2 and 4.3 in such a way as not to deform any working part. 4.2 On the body Rolled, cast or stamped on the body shall be the following: (a) the number of this British Standard in the form (b) the manufacturers name or trademark. BS 1212/1*; 4.3 On every seat inc

23、luding spares The flange of the seat shall be marked with the following: (a) the manufacturers name or trademark; (b) the body (or bodies) with which it can be used (I to VI); (c) the designation of the seat (3, 5, 6,9, 13, 16, 19, 24,25 or 32). In the case of plastics seats, the marking shall be ei

24、ther within the recess for embossed marking or on the flat face for engraved marking (see figure 9). “Marking BS 1212/1 on or in relation to a product represents a manufacturers declaration of conformity, i.e. a claim by or on behalf of the manufacturer that the product meets the requirements of the

25、 standard. The accuracy of the claim is therefore solely the responsibility of the person making the claim. Such a declaration is not to be confused with third party certification of conformity, which may also be desirable. 2 BS 1212 : Part 1 : 1990 Specification. Section two Section two. Materials
