This document applies primarily to copper alloy and stainless steel ball valves with dimensions DN 6 to DN 100, for installations in buildings for potable water supply up to PN16 and a maximum distribution temperature of 65 °C. Occasional excursions up to 90 °C are permitted for a period of 1 h maximum.
The ball valves are classified by their nominal pressure being either PN10 or PN16.
This document specifies:
— the requirements of the materials and the design of ball valves;
— the mechanical, hydraulic and acoustic requirements of ball valves;
— the test methods to verify the requirements of ball valves;
— the marking requirements of ball valves.

This European Standard specifies safety requirements, safety factors, test methods, test pressures used and marking of refrigerating valves and other components with similar bodies, hereinafter called valves, for use in refrigerating systems.
It describes the procedure to be followed when designing (by calculation or by an experimental design method) valve parts subjected to pressure as well as the criteria to be used in the selection of materials.
The standard describes methods by which reduced impact values at low temperatures may be taken into account in a safe manner.
This standard applies to the design of bodies and bonnets for pressure relief devices, including bursting disc devices, with respect to pressure containment but it does not apply to any other aspects of the design or application of pressure relief devices.
