The responsible German body involved in its preparation was DIN-Normenausschuss Feuerwehrwesen (DIN Stan

6、dards Committee Firefighting and Fire Protection), Working Committee NA 031-04-04 AA . The inductor for foam concentrates is a fitting which forms part of the fire-fighting water conveyor component and is used to produce fire-extinguishing foam. Using the Venturi principle, the inductor sucks in the

7、 foam concentrate and induces it into a water flow to produce extinguishing water at a predetermined ratio. In addition to the legal units of measurement, this standard also uses the unit “inch”. It is important to note that according to the German law on units in metrology, the use of these units i

8、s not permitted in official or business communications within Germany. Conversion: Non-SI unit SI unit Conversion in (inch) mm 1 inch = 25,4 mm Amendments This standard differs from DIN 14384:2011-01 as follows: a) the national standard has been converted into a European Standard; b) all references

9、to national standards have been deleted; c) terms and definitions have been supplemented; d) requirements and tests have been revised and a proportion ratio of 0,1 % has been added; e) additional requirements for the instruction and maintenance handbook have been specified; f) the specifications for

10、 marking have been revised; g) specifications for colour coding have been included; h) the text of the standard has been revised in form and substance. Previous editions DIN 14384: 1984-10, 2011-01 DIN EN 16712-1:2015-12 3 National Annex NA (informative) Couplings This European Standard does not con

11、tain requirements specifying the type of coupling to be connected to hoses as no European Standard dealing with the connection of firefighting hoses currently exists. Orders for couplings are thus subject to individual agreement between parties. To ensure the compatibility of all components of water

12、 systems for fire extinguishing in Germany, these have been brought in line with the specifications from DIN 14384, the standard that has been valid until now.
