This document specifies a method of evaluating the electrostatic propensity of textile and laminate floor coverings under controlled conditions. Since the potential generated varies with humidity, shoe materials, walk surface and individuals' mannerisms, the values generated by this test will not necessarily reflect actual field experience, but will provide a relative comparison of the performance of different surfaces. For classification purposes and in cases of dispute, the measurement procedure specified in this document can be used under controlled conditions specified in the relevant classification standard or agreed between disputing parties. There may be occasions where measurements are required under non-controlled conditions, e.g. in situ measurements on installed floor coverings. The principle of measurement using the equipment specified in this document can be used to make measurements, either with the standard footwear specified or with specific footwear relevant to the end use.

 

This document specifies the test method for assessing the propensity of textile floor coverings to soiling in the absence of abrasive wear and texture changes using a standard artificial soil composition. This document applies to the testing of unused textile floor coverings of all types. This document can also be extended to assess the effects of fibre finishes, cleaning chemicals and cleaning equipment (see Annex A).

 

This document gives guidance and requirements for the assessment of conformity of compounds, products, joints and assemblies in accordance with the applicable part(s) of EN 12201 intended to be included in the manufacturer’s quality plan as part of the quality management system and for the establishment of certification procedures. NOTE 1 A test matrix provides an overview of the testing scheme in Annex C, Table C.1. NOTE 2 If certification is involved, the certification bodies and inspection bodies operating in accordance with EN ISO/IEC 17065 [6] and EN ISO/IEC 17020 [4] are considered to be competent. Socket fusion fittings according to EN 12201 3:2024, Annex A, and mechanical fittings according to ISO 17885 are not covered in this document. In conjunction with EN 12201 1, EN 12201 2, EN 12201 3, EN 12201 4 and EN 12201 5, this document is applicable to polyethylene (PE) pressure piping systems (mains and service pipes) for buried or above ground applications, intended for the conveyance of water for human consumption, raw water prior to treatment, drains and sewers under pressure, vacuum sewer systems, and water for other purposes, with the exception of industrial application. The intended use includes sea outfalls, laid in water and pipes suspended below bridges. It is applicable to PE pipes, fittings, and valves, their joints and joints with components of PE and other materials intended to be used under the following conditions: a) allowable operating pressure, PFA, up to 25 bar ; b) an operating temperature of 20 °C as a reference temperature. NOTE 3 Industrial application is covered by EN ISO 15494 [3]. NOTE 4 For applications operating at constant temperature greater than 20 °C and up to and including 50 °C, see EN 12201 1:2024, Annex A. NOTE 5 It is the responsibility of the purchaser or specifier to make the appropriate selections from these aspects, taking into account their particular requirements and any relevant national guidance or regulations and installation practices or codes.

 

This document specifies a method for the determination of the selected metals and semi-metals migration from the internal surface of plastics pipes, fittings and joints to be used for the transport of water intended for human consumption by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). This document applies to the determination of the selected metal and semi-metals migration values of lead (Pb), tin (Sn), antimony (Sb), cadmium (Cd), chromium (Cr), copper (Cu), barium (Ba), magnesium (Mg), aluminium (Al), nickel (Ni), zinc (Zn) and arsenic (As). This method is suitable for all plastics pipes, fittings, and joints to be used for the transport of water and raw water intended for human consumption.

 

This document specifies test methods for the determination of the technical characteristics of underlays under modular mechanical locked floor coverings. It can be used to compare different underlays and to encourage the consumer to make an informed choice. It also specifies requirements for marking and packaging. Underlays pre-attached to the flooring coverings are not covered by this document. This document is not applicable to the performance of the floor covering system. This will be checked separately depending on the used floor covering.

 

This document specifies the methods of examining the knowledge and skill set of the fitter required to carry out on-site joint casing connections on thermally insulated single and twin pipe systems for directly buried hot and cold water networks according to .The application of these specified methods specifications ensures that the examination is carried out according to a standardised examining procedure.This document covers the following processes: - preparatory works for joint casing assembly; - assembling and testing the elements for surveillance systems; For special surveillance systems it can be important to have additional training.preparing work for joint casing system installation; - assembling sealable joint casing system; - verifying joint tightness (leakage testing); - thermally insulating the joint casing ( PUR foaming or half-shells); - sealing fill & vent openings (weldable or sealable plugs); - assessing overall installation quality of the completed joint connection (non-destructive).
