1 Scope
This document specifies:
-
— general construction, performance and material requirements for Frost Resistant Taps for outdoor use (FRT), PN 10.
-
— the application in the potable water installation with a static pressure of maximum 1,0 MPa (10 bar) and a distribution temperature of maximum 25 °C (PWC).
FRT valves shall consist of the 3 areas shown in Figure 1.
The conditions of use are according to the following Table 1.
Table 1
