Overview of ANSI, DIN, and JIS Standards
ANSI standards for check valves are primarily governed by the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) and the American Petroleum Institute (API). Key standards include:
• ASME B16.34: This standard covers the design, materials, and testing of valves, including check valves, with flanged, threaded, and welded ends.
• API 594: This standard specifically addresses wafer and double-flanged check valves, providing detailed requirements for design, materials, and testing.
• API 6D: This standard is applicable to pipeline valves, including check valves, and covers design, materials, testing, and marking requirements.
DIN standards are developed by the German Institute for Standardization and are widely used in Europe and globally. Key standards for check valves include:
• DIN 3356: This standard covers the design, materials, and testing of check valves, including lift check valves and swing check valves.
• DIN EN 13709: This standard addresses industrial valves, including steel globe and globe stop and check valves, covering design, materials, and testing requirements.
• DIN EN 16767: This standard focuses on metal check valves, providing detailed requirements for design, materials, and performance.
JIS standards are developed by the Japanese Industrial Standards Committee and are widely used in Japan and other Asian countries. Key standards for check valves include:
• JIS B2074: This standard covers the design, materials, and testing of check valves, including lift check valves and swing check valves.
• JIS B2002: This standard addresses the structural length of valves, ensuring compatibility and interchangeability.
• JIS B2003: This standard covers the pressure testing requirements for valves, including check valves.
