BS EN 1287:2017 specifies general construction, performance and material requirements for
PN 10 thermostatic mixing valves (TMV) and includes test methods for the verification of mixed water
temperature performance at the point of use below 45 °C. This does not exclude the selection of higher
temperatures where available. When these devices are used to provide anti-scald protection for
children, elderly and disabled persons the mixed water temperature needs to be set at a suitable
bathing temperature (body temperature - 38 °C) as children are at risk to scalding at lower
temperatures than adults. This does not obviate the need for supervision of young children during
bathing.It applies to valves intended for use on sanitary appliances in kitchens, washrooms (incl. all rooms with
sanitary tapware, e.g. toilet and cloakrooms) and bathrooms operating under the conditions specified in
Table 1.This standard allows TMVs to supply a single outlet or a small number of outlets in a "domestic"
application (e.g. one valve, controlling a shower, bath, basin and/or, bidet), excluding valves specifically
designed for supplying a large number of outlets (i.e. for institutional use).The tests described are type tests (laboratory tests) and not quality control tests carried out during
manufacture.Cross References:EN 200:2008EN 13618:2016EN 248:2002ISO 5167-1:2003 Ed 2EN 16145:2012EN ISO 5167-1 (ISO 5167-1:2003 AS)EN ISO 228-1 (ISO 228-1:2000 AS)EN 13959:2004EN 246:2003EN 1112:2008ISO 228-1:2000EN 1717:2000EN 1113:2015EN 14506:2005EN 1057:2006+A1:2010IEC 60584 (all parts)EN 60584 (all parts)ISA-MC 96.1:1982ISO 13732-1:2006 Ed 1PD 6504:1983ISO 9886:2004 Ed 2EN ISO 13732-1:2008 (ISO 13732-1:2006)ASAll current amendments available at time of purchase are included with the purchase of this document.
