This document is drafted in the three official CEN languages. In t
10、he tables of Clause 3 there is free space left for CEN Member bodies to add its own national language(s) to the symbols. CEN/TR 15438:20074 Introduction For PE pressure piping systems, since the late 1980s, it is common practice to use a code indicating the intended use. This information is put on t
11、he pipe, the label of a fitting or valve or the packaging. It may also be repeated in manufacturers technical files. With the introduction of harmonised European Standards related to the Construction Products Directive 1a lot of information shall accompany the CE marking symbol. Guidance Paper D 2gi
12、ves recommendations to the specification writers: “Use of “codified” formats: Where additional information on the declared performances of harmonised characteristics is required, or to define the product, its intended use or its end-use condition, specification writers should explore the possibiliti
13、es of using abbreviated forms of presentation (defined symbols, standard designations, classes of convenience or pictograms). Where this is done, it is important that specification writers ensure the consistent applications of such “codified” formats across product families“. “Intended uses: Possibl
14、e intended uses for the product(s) should be defined in the technical specification, together with appropriate reference terms, or symbols, to be used in the information accompanying the CE marking, if necessary. Products with more than one intended use will need to be accompanied by sufficient info
15、rmation to cover all of them, but the technical specification should provide some flexibility in the presentation of this information, if appropriate“. CEN/TR 15438:20075 1 Scope This Technical Report gives guidance for the coding of products, their classification and intended uses for plastics pipi
16、ng systems. It lays down reference terms and symbols to be used when establishing documentation accompanying the CE marking according to the European Directives. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this Technical Report.
