Annex A (informative) Numbers of test devices/tests

Describes: - field of application of anti-pollution check valves; - backflow prevention properties, dimensional and physio-chemical properties, and properties of general hydraulic, mechanical and acoustic design for anti-pollution check valves of nominal sizes DN 6 to DN 250 inclusive; - family E, type A, controllable anti-pollution check valve (with test port); - family E, type B, non-controllable anti-pollution check valve, including cartridge check valve; - family E, type C, controllable anti-pollution double check valve (with test ports); - family E, type D, non-controllable anti-pollution double check valve, including cartridge double check valve; - test procedures and requirements for verifying the backflow protection properties of stop valves, draw-off taps etc. which incorporate a check valve function. Stop valves, draw off taps etc, need also to comply with a recognised standard; - marking; - presentation at delivery.
