30、 EN 488:2015EN 488:2015 (E) 6 1 Scope This European Standard specifies requirements and test methods for valves of prefabricated thermally insulated valve assemblies comprising a steel valve, rigid polyurethane foam insulation and an outer casing of polyethylene for use in directly buried hot water
31、networks with pre-insulated pipe assemblies in accordance with EN 253. This European Standard applies only to factory made prefabricated insulated valve assemblies for continuous operation with hot water at various temperatures in accordance with EN 253:2009+A2:2015, Clause 1 and the valve assemblie
32、s with a maximum operation pressure of 25 bar. For higher pressures, additional demands apply. NOTE For this application, the following valve types are commonly used: ball valves, gate valves, and butterfly valves. This European Standard does not include calculation rules for loads and stresses. The
33、se depend on the configuration of the system as it is installed. The design and installation rules are given in EN 13941. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application.

Note 4 to entry: The maximum allowable pressure of a pipework component depends on the PN number, the material and design of the component, its maximum allow
43、able temperature, etc. The relevant European Component standards include tables of specified pressure/temperature ratings or, in minimum, include rules how to determine pressure/temperature ratings.
