Abstract

Applies to electrically operated water valves for use in, on or in association with equipment for household and similar use that may use electricity, gas, oil, solid fuel, solar thermal energy, etc. or a combination thereof, including heating, air-conditioning and similar applications. It contains requirements for electrical features of water valves and requirements for mechanical features of valves that affect their intended operation. It also applies to the inherent safety, to the operating values, operating sequences where such are associated with equipment protection, and to the testing of automatic electrical controls used in, on or in association with household and similar equipment. Electrically operated valves for equipment not intended for normal household use but which may nevertheless be used by the public, such as equipment intended to be used by laymen in shops, in light industry and on farms, are within the scope. Also applies to actuators and to valve bodies which are designed to be fitted to each other and to individual valves, valves utilized as part of a system and valves mechanically integral with multi-functional controls having non-electrical outputs.
