This document specifies the definitions and requirements for ancillary fittings and shallow chambers installed underground in non-pressure drainage and sewerage systems and manufactured from unplasticized poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC-U), polypropylene (PP), polypropylene with mineral modifier (PP-MD) or polyethylene (PE) intended for use for:<\/p>\n
non-pressure underground drainage and sewerage outside the building structure (application area code \u201cU\u201d), and<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
non-pressure underground drainage and sewerage for both buried in ground within the building structure (application area code \u201cD\u201d) and outside the building structure.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
This is reflected in the marking of products by \u201cU\u201d and \u201cUD\u201d.<\/p>\n
It also covers the jointing of the ancillary fittings and shallow chambers to the pipework system.<\/p>\n
The ancillary fittings covered by this standard are the following:<\/p>\n
sealed access fittings;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
rodding point covers;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
rodding tees;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
mechanical saddles.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Ancillary fittings according to this document are intended for use in pedestrian areas, except rodding tees and mechanical saddles which can also be used in vehicular trafficked areas.<\/p>\n
Pedestrian areas are as defined in EN 124?1<\/span><\/span> .<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Ancillary fittings can be installed to a maximum depth of 6,0 m from ground level, with the exception of rodding point covers.<\/p>\n Shallow chambers according to this document are intended for use in private drains located in pedestrian areas above the ground water table, to a maximum depth of 2,0 m from ground level to the invert of the main channel. This document covers shallow chambers with flow profile bases, and their joints to the piping system.<\/p>\n Manholes and inspection chambers are specified in EN 13598-2<\/span><\/span> [ 1<\/span>].<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Ancillary fittings and shallow chambers complying with this document also comply with the general requirements given in EN 476<\/span><\/span>.<\/p>\n Ancillary fittings and shallow chambers can be manufactured by various methods e.g. injection moulding, rotational moulding, spiral winding or fabricated from components made to other standards.<\/p>\n Products complying with this document can be used with pipes, fittings and other components conforming to any of the plastics products standards listed in Clause 2<\/span>, providing their dimensions are compatible.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Products complying with this document can be installed in underground applications without additional static calculation.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Ancillary fittings and shallow chambers can be subject to national safety regulations and \/ or local provisions.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Plastics piping systems for non-pressure underground drainage and sewerage.
