This European Standard shall be given the status of a natio
30、nal standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by August 2012, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by November 2013. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of paten
31、t rights. CEN and/or CENELEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. This document supersedes EN 997:2003. This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requ
32、irements of EU Directive(s). For relationship with EU Directive(s), see informative Annex ZA, which is an integral part of this document. This standard is one of a series of standards for sanitary appliances. Supporting standards are those for flushing devices and connecting dimensions. a) by reason
33、 of the actual market development, testing the flushing requirements has been specified. In this connection, requirements for test flushing cistern and its calibration have been adjusted to these conditions (introduction of the new parameter impact force); b) requirements and test methods for close-
34、coupled suites and one-piece WCs have been extended and adjusted to those for flushing cisterns in accordance with EN 14055. NOTE Noise level has not been considered in the present amendment. Noise level will be considered as soon as a European test method is available. 1)According to the CEN/CENELE
35、C Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania,
36、 Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey and the United Kingdom. 1)Presently, a test method is under elaboration by CEN/TC 126 “Acoustic properties of building products and of buildings” Copyright European Committee fo

38、 suites, one-piece and independent WC pans with integral trap used for personal hygiene manufactured from glazed ceramics or stainless steel. This European Standard does not apply to squatting toilets, WC pans without integral trap or flushing cisterns as separate appliances. In the case of independ
39、ent WC pans, the associated flushing cisterns and pressure valves are covered by other standards and the reference to cisterns in this standard is related only to the definition and requirements of flushing volume. In the case of close-coupled suites and one-piece WCs, this standard also specifies d
40、esign, performance requirements and the test methods for designated flushing cisterns with flushing mechanisms, inlet valves and overflows. For these products, this standard covers flushing cisterns designed to be connected to drinking water installations inside buildings. Before installation of WCs
41、, EN 12056-2 and national requirements need to be taken into consideration. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application.
