21、 4 Introduction The purpose of this European Standard is to establish certain basic requirements for production pressure testing of industrial valves in order to ensure uniform tests and test procedures. Tests and procedures given in this European Standard may also be used, if required, for type tes
22、ts and acceptance tests. Special requirements, which are specific to one product or one performance standard only, are not included in this European Standard. Details should be included in the appropriate standard. BS EN 12266-1:2012EN 12266-1:2012 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard specifies requ
23、irements for tests, test procedures and acceptance criteria for production testing of industrial valves made of metallic materials. The specified tests may also be used as type tests or acceptance tests. Safety devices are not covered by EN 12266-1. When specified as a normative reference in a valve
24、 product or performance standard, this European Standard is to be considered in conjunction with given specific requirements of the valve product or performance standard. Where requirements in a product or performance standard differ from those given in this European Standard, the requirements of th
25、e product or performance standard apply. NOTE For testing of industrial valves of thermoplastic materials, ISO 9393-1 and ISO 9393-2 apply. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application.

EXAMPLE Shell strength, Test P10 EN 12266-1 BS EN 12266-1:2012EN 12266-1:2012 (E) 8 Annex A (normative) Test procedures and acceptance criteria A.1 General requirements A.1.1 Purpose These general requirements shall be applied to
42、all the test procedures detailed in this annex. Safety aspects of valve testing are not covered in this European Standard. NOTE Users of this European Standard should analyse the hazard resulting from the pressure and take proper safety precautions. A.1.2 Test equipment The test equipment shall be o
43、f such a design that it does not subject the valve to externally applied loads which may affect the results of the test. NOTE The test equipment can apply external loads sufficient to react to the forces resulting from the test pressure. When using test equipment and procedures different to that det
44、ailed in this European Standard, the manufacturer shall be able to demonstrate the equivalence of such test procedures and acceptance criteria with the requirements of this European Standard. A.1.3 Measuring equipment The measuring equipment shall be capable of measuring fluid pressure with an accur
45、acy of 5 % of the required test pressure. A.1.4 Painted, coated or lined valves Before the shell strength test, reference P10, and the shell tightness test, reference P11, valves shall not be painted externally or otherwise coated with materials capable of sealing against leakage from external surfa
46、ces of the shell. Valves with liners, internal linings or coatings forming a design feature of the valve may be tested with the liner, after lining or coating. Attention shall be given that the liners, internal linings or coatings are not damaged by the test procedure. NOTE If tests in the presence
47、of a representative of the purchaser are specified, painted or coated valves from stock may be retested without removal of painting or coating. A.1.5 Test fluid The test fluid to be used shall be: either a liquid (water which may contain a corrosion inhibitor, or any other suitable liquid having a v
48、iscosity not greater than water); a gas (air or other suitable gas). BS EN 12266-1:2012EN 12266-1:2012 (E) 9 Relevant detailed test procedures are specified in A.2.2.1, A.3.2.1 and A.4.2.1. The test fluid temperature shall be between 5 C and 40 C. A.1.6 Equivalent DN numbers For the purpose of calcu
49、lating seat leakage rates and test duration times it is necessary to establish the equivalent DN number for those valves which are designated other than by DN. The equivalent DN numbers of valves having flanged ends, threaded ends, welded ends, capillary or compression ends shall be as given in Table A.1.
