DIN EN 1028-2 describes the determination of conformity of centrifugal fire pumps with venting devices with the requirements of DIN EN 1028-1, including test methods and conformity assessment. It supplements Part 1 with specific test methods for pumps with a rated flow rate of up to 6000 l/min and aligns with the EC Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC.
Main Content
The standard covers test benches, measurements of flow rate, discharge pressure, and speed, as well as the determination of pump performance curves in diagrams. It requires testing at temperatures ranging from -15 °C to +40 °C and safety inspections for operation and maintenance.
Warranty Points Review
Compliance is verified based on the three guarantee criteria from Part 1:
-
Rated capacity at a suction head of 3 m.
-
50% at a suction height of 7.5 m.
-
50% at 1.2 times the pressure and a suction head of 3 m.
Current Version
The current version is DIN EN 1028-2:2008-06 with Corrigendum 1:2009-01, which incorporates Amendment A1:2008 and is cited as a harmonized standard. It replaces DIN EN 1028-2:2002-11 and simplifies the demonstration of conformity.
