Grade 200 shall not be used for valves with PN 25 flanged end connections.
4.1.1.2 The manufacturer shall declare the materials of construction and any coatings of components in
contact with the line fluid from which the suitability of the valve for the application can be determined.
4.1.1.3 Welding of grey cast iron and impregnation of castings of all materials is not permitted.
4.1.2 Pressure/temperature ratings
4.1.2.1 The pressure/temperature ratings shall be in accordance with EN 1092-2 for the equivalent
ISO material grade and are not for conditions of hydraulic or external shock likely to cause brittle fracture.
Annex B should be used to determine the equivalent ISO material grade for the EN material grades specified
in Table 1.
4.1.2.2 Any restrictions of temperature and pressure below those specified in EN 1092-2, for example,
those imposed by soft seals, special trims, shall be indicated on the valve (see 8.1.2).

Page 6
EN 12334:2001
4.1.2.3 The use of valves at lower temperatures than shown in the pressure/temperature rating tables in
EN 1092-2 is permitted providing that the body, bonnet and cover is manufactured from spheroidal graphite
cast iron material grades EN-GJS-350-22-LT or EN-GJS-400-18-LT. For temperatures below the lowest
temperature shown in the rating tables the maximum allowable pressure shall be no greater than the
pressure corresponding to the lowest temperature in the rating tables. The lowest scheduled operating
temperature shall not be less than the temperature specified in EN 1563 for the Charpy impact tests.
4.1.3 Dimensions
4.1.3.1 Face-to-face and centre-to-face dimensions
Face-to-face and centre-to-face dimensions for PN designated flanged end valves shall be in accordance
with EN 558-1 and specified by the purchaser (see annex A). Face-to-face dimensions for valves other than
flanged are the choice of the manufacturer.
4.1.3.2 Body ends — flanged type
Flanged ends shall be in accordance with the requirements of EN 1092-2.
4.1.3.3 Wafer type body
The body of wafer type valves shall have means to centralise its location within the flange bolting of the pipe
end flanges with which the valve will be assembled.
4.1.4 Operation
A check valve automatically opens by fluid flow in a defined direction and automatically closes to prevent
fluid flow in the reverse direction. Means may be provided to restrict the degree of opening and/or influence
the speed of opening or closing. Wafer type obturators shall be capable of operation when the valve is
connected to pipework to ISO 4200. Depending on obturator type, valves operate in horizontal or vertical
pipe, or both.
4.1.5 Auxiliary connections
When auxiliary connections are required, they shall be specified by the purchaser and shall be of the internal
form in accordance with Type Rc or Rp to ISO 7-1.
4.2 Functional characteristics
4.2.1 Shell design strength
Design for adequate strength shall incorporate safety coefficients appropriate to the properties of the
material to ensure sufficient ductility, toughness, corrosive and wear resistance. Appropriate measures shall
be taken where less ductile material is used to avoid brittle fracture.The shell design strength shall be
verified by a type test in accordance with EN 12516-3.
4.2.2 Flow characteristics
Manufacturers shall give guidance in their literature in respect of recommended maximum and minimum flow
velocities of liquids and/or gases.
4.2.3 Seat leakage
The allowable rate for seat leakage tests specified in prEN 12266-1:1999 shall be:
a) for resilient seated valves, no visible leakage;

3
b) for metal seated valves, 2mm /s × DN (expressed in millimetres).

Page 7
EN 12334:2001
4.2.4 Anti-blow out design
The valve designs shall ensure that the shaft or stem of the obturator hinge mechanism cannot be fully
blown out of the shell when the valve is under pressure
 by disassembly of any external part; or
 by failure of the connection between obturator and shaft or stem even when external parts are
removed.
5 Test procedures
5.1 Valves shall be pressure tested by the manufacturer prior to dispatch in accordance with
prEN 12266-1:1999.
5.2 Additional tests of finished valves can also be carried out to the requirements of prEN 12266-2:1999.
The customer shall specify which tests are required except that test F21 shall not be applied to cast iron
check valves.
6 Declaration of compliance
The manufacturer shall declare compliance with this standard by marking the valve with the number of this
standard.
7 Designation
Check valves in accordance with this standard shall be designated by the following elements in the same
order:
 check valve type (see EN 736-1);
 EN 12334 ;
 body type (flanged or wafer);
 symbol DN and number;
 pressure designation PN;
 material of the body and cover (if any);
 the face-to-face or centre-to-face dimensions basic series.
EXAMPLE
A double disk check valve to EN 12334 in wafer pattern, DN 65, PN 16 in EN 1561-GJL-200 cast iron.

Page 8
EN 12334:2001
8 Marking, preparation for storage and transportation.
8.1 Marking
8.1.1 Marking shall be in accordance with prEN 19:2000.
For valves equal to or smaller than nominal size DN 50, where due to the physical size of the valve it is not
practical to apply the mandatory markings as specified in prEN 19:2000, items 1, 2 and 4 may be omitted
provided they are shown on the identification plate.
The sequence of omissions shall be:
a) nominal size (item 1);
b) pressure designation (item 2);
c) manufacturer’s name or trademark (item 4).
8.1.2 The following supplementary markings shall be marked on the valve:
a) arrow for direction of flow (item 5);
b) standard number (item 11);
c) maximum allowable temperature TS (°C) (item 7) (4.1.2.2);
d) maximum allowable pressure PS (bar) (item 9) (4.1.2.2);
e) identification number (item 10) only if different from manufacturer’s name or trademark (item 4)
(8.1.1c);
f) year of manufacture (item 18).
8.2 Preparation for storage and transportation
Each valve shall be drained of any test fluid. The valve shall be packaged or the body ends covered to
prevent the ingress of foreign matter. In the case of polymeric or elastomeric seated valves the seating shall
also be protected from ultra violet light.
Protective caps for valves with flanged end connections shall be in accordance with EN 12351.
The obturator of valves that can be damaged in transit shall be provided with some means of temporary
restraint.
