BS EN 12266-1:2012 pdf download – Industrial valves — Testing of metallic valves Part 1 : Pressure tests, test procedures and acceptance criteria — Mandatory requirements This European Standard specifies requirements for tests, test procedures and acceptance criteria for productiontesting of industrial valves made of metallic materials. The specified tests may also be used as type tests or acceptance tests. Safety devices are not covered by EN 12266-1. When specified as a normative reference in a valve product or performance standard, this European Standard is tobe considered in conjunction with given specific requirements of the valve product or performance standard.Whererequirements in a product or performance standard differ from those given in this European Standard,therequirements of the product or performance standard apply. NOTE For testing of industrial valves of thermoplastic materials, ISO 9393-1 and ISO 9393-2 apply. 2Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part,are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensablefor its application.For dated references, only the edition cited applies.For undated references, the latest edition ofthe referenced document (including any amendments) applies.
