7 Marking

This European Standard specifies general requirements for components for use in hydraulically pressurized discharge pipes, drains and sewers. This European Standard provides the general basis for the preparation or revision of product standards. Some of its provisions may need modification when drafting harmonized European Standards. It is not applicable for evaluation of products.
