Gullies for buildings - Part 2: Roof drains and floor gullies without trap

This European Standard classifies roof drains and floor gullies without trap for use inside buildings, gives guidance for places of installation and specifies requirements for the construction, design, performance and marking as well as test methods of factory made roof drains and floor gullies without trap (further: floor gullies) for buildings, irrespective of the material for use in drainage systems.
Although normally used to convey rainwater and wastewater, these roof drains and floor gullies without trap may convey other wastewater provided there is no risk of damage to components or of injury to health.
This European Standard does not apply to trapped floor gullies with a depth of water seal of at least 50 mm as specified in EN 1253 1.

Abläufe für Gebäude - Teil 2: Dachabläufe und Bodenabläufe ohne Geruchverschluss

Diese Europäische Norm klassifiziert Dach  und Bodenabläufe ohne Geruchverschluss für den Einsatz innerhalb von Gebäuden, gibt eine Anleitung hinsichtlich der Einbaustellen und legt Anforderungen an die Konstruktion, Ausführung, Funktion und Kennzeichnung sowie Prüfverfahren für werksmäßig hergestellte Dach  und Bodenabläufe ohne Geruchverschluss (im Folgenden als Bodenabläufe bezeichnet) für Gebäude fest, unabhängig vom in der Entwässerungsanlage verwendeten Werkstoff.
Obwohl sie üblicherweise zum Ableiten von Regenwasser und Abwasser verwendet werden, können diese Dachabläufe und Bodenabläufe ohne Geruchverschluss auch andere Abwässer ableiten, vorausgesetzt, dass dabei keine Gefahr der Beschädigung von Bauteilen oder von Gesundheitsschäden besteht.
Diese Europäische Norm gilt nicht für Bodenabläufe mit einer Geruchverschlusshöhe von mindestens 50 mm, wie in EN 1253-1 festgelegt.

Avaloirs et siphons pour bâtiments - Partie 2 : Avaloirs de toiture et avaloirs/siphons de sol sans garde d’eau

La présente Norme européenne classifie les avaloirs de toiture et les avaloirs/siphons de sol sans garde d’eau utilisés à l’intérieur des bâtiments, donne des lignes directrices pour les lieux d’installation et spécifie les exigences concernant la construction, la conception, les performances et le marquage, ainsi que les méthodes d’essai des avaloirs de toiture et des avaloirs/siphons de sol sans garde d’eau fabriqués en usine (appelés « avaloirs/siphons de sol » dans le reste du document), pour bâtiments, indépendamment des matériaux, destinés à être utilisés dans les réseaux d’évacuation.
Bien que normalement utilisés pour transporter de l’eau de pluie et des eaux usées, les avaloirs de toiture et les avaloirs/siphons de sol sans garde d’eau peuvent transporter d’autres eaux usées, à la condition qu’il n’y ait pas de risque d’endommagement des composants ou de danger pour la santé.
La présente Norme européenne ne s’applique pas aux siphons de sol avec une garde d’eau de 50 mm minimum tels que spécifiés dans l’EN 1253-1.

Odtoki v stavbah - 2. del: Žlebovi in talni odtoki brez smradne zapore

Ta evropski standard razvršča žlebove in talne odtoke brez smradne zapore za uporabo v stavbah, vsebuje napotke za mesta namestitve in določa zahteve za gradnjo, zasnovo, učinkovitost in označevanje ter preskusne metode za tovarniško proizvedene žlebove in talne odtoke brez smradne zapore (v nadaljevanju: talni odtoki) v stavbah, ne glede na material, za uporabo v drenažnih sistemih.
Čeprav se žlebovi in talni odtoki brez smradne zapore običajno uporabljajo za odvajanje deževnice in odpadne vode, se lahko uporabljajo tudi za odvajanje druge odpadne vode, če pri tem ni nevarnosti za poškodbe sestavnih delov ali za zdravje.
Ta evropski standard se ne uporablja za talne odtoke z zaporo vode na višini najmanj 50 mm iz standarda EN 1253 1.
