Defines dimensions, materials and performance requirements (including test procedures) for Water Pressure Reducing Valves and Combination Pressure Reducing Valves, of nominal size between DN 8 and DN 100, for inlet pressures not in excess of 1.6 MPa (16 bar) and a temperature not in excess of 30 degrees C for cold water application and 80 degrees C for hot water application. Can be mounted in any orientation, unless the manufacturer states otherwise.
