This European Standard specifies requirements, assessment methods, compliance criteria and a designation system for fittings with compression ends for use with plastic and multilayer pipes which are defined in the applicable pipe standard. For the purposes of joining plastic pipes, the fitting ends have a size range from 10 mm to 160 mm. The fittings are designed for a service lifetime up to fifty years.
This European Standard applies to fittings made of materials listed in CEN/TS 13388.
Details of applications and classes of service conditions are specified in the relevant plastics piping systems standards.
Adaptor fittings for use with plastic and multilayer pipes may combine compression ends with fitting ends defined in the other parts of EN 1254.
Compression fittings for use with plastic and multilayer pipes may also have flanged end connections according to EN 1092-3.
Compression fittings for use with plastic and multilayer pipes may also have a plated or other decorative surface coating.
Products covered by this standard are intended to be used in liquid applications:
hot or cold or combined hot and cold water systems;
heating and cooling systems.
