Foreword
This document (prEN 877:2012) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 203 “Cast iron pipes,
fittings, accessories and their joints”, the secretariat of which is held by AFNOR.
This document is currently submitted to the CEN Enquiry.
This document will supersede EN 877:1999.
This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the
European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of EU Directive.
For relationship with EU Directive, see informative Annex ZA, which is an integral part of this document.
It is one of a series of standards for cast iron products for pipelines for various applications.
It deals with subjects covered by the International Standard ISO 6594. The major difference is the inclusion of
requirements for joints and for product performance.
This standard is in conformity with the general requirements already established by CEN/TC 165 in the field of
waste water engineering, as required by EN 476.

1 Scope
This European Standard applies to cast iron pipeline components used for the construction of discharge
systems for buildings and of drains, normally as gravity systems but also vacuum systems, inside and outside
buildings, above and below ground.
The range of nominal sizes extends from DN 40 to DN 600 inclusive.
This standard specifies the requirements for the materials, dimensions and tolerances, mechanical properties,
appearance, standard coatings for cast iron pipes, fittings and accessories. It also indicates performance
requirements for all components, including joints. Quality assurance is covered in an informative annex.
It covers pipes, fittings and accessories cast by any foundry process or manufactured by fabrication of cast
components, as well as the corresponding joints.
The roof gullies used for siphonic systems are not relevant from this standard.

4 Technical requirements
4.1 General
4.1.1 Introduction
The general requirements for pipes, fittings, joints and accessories are defined in 4.1 to 4.8 and in 4.12.
Additional requirements are given in 4.10 for buried systems and in 4.11 for rainwater systems to be installed
outside buildings.
NOTE Information on manufacturing criteria and quality assurance is given in annex D.
4.1.2 Surface condition
Pipes, fittings and accessories shall be free from defects (superficial and other defects) which could be
detrimental to their correct operation or long service life as defined in this standard.
4.1.3 Reaction to fire
Uncoated cast iron pipes and fittings, their joints and accessories are Class A1 CWFT according to CEC
Decision 96/603/EC as amended.
Considering the products in their end-use conditions (assembled into a discharge system), even if:
internal coatings are not relevant as they are not exposed to fire (a very low quantity of smoke is possible
but it will go outside buildings through stack vents);
7
---------------------- Page: 9 ----------------------
oSIST prEN 877:2012
prEN 877:2012 (E)
gaskets of joints are not relevant either as in the end-use conditions they are not or very few (external
edge) exposed to fire and represent a very low quantity of organic material they will be tested according
to EN 13823 (SBI) using the mounting adaptations given in Annex H to verify these assumptions.
According to EN 13501-1, as the gross calorific potential (PCS) of the products in their assembled state
(pipes, fittings, joints, their components and materials), due to their densities and weight quantities, will always
satisfy the requirement on PCS for the product as a whole (≤ 2,0 MJ/kg), the reaction to fire classification shall
be obtained as follows:
external coatings, if containing more than 1 % by weight or volume (whichever is the more onerous) of
homogeneously distributed organic material, shall satisfy the requirements of 4.6.3 on ignitability or gross
calorific potential, depending on the intended class of reaction to fire
and
a range (including coated pipes, coated fittings, couplings and possibly grip collars) shall be tested
according to EN 13823 (SBI), using the mounting adaptations given in Annex H, and shall satisfy the
requirements of classification criteria and additional classifications listed in EN 13501-1 for the intended
class of reaction to fire. If a range includes grip collars, as these products are not always installed on the
discharge system depending on the expected performances:
the test shall be done without them to evaluate the behaviour of the couplings without any protection
to the flame;
and only if the grip collars include an organic material, the test shall be done again with the grip
collars installed on top of the couplings (see Annex H).
To obtain a classification for their joints (for CE marking), a manufacturer of only joints shall test them once
according to EN 13823 (SBI) using the mounting adaptations given in Annex H, with pipes and fittings of a
cast iron range which already has a reaction to fire classification given by a notified test laboratory, and he
shall prove that the existing classification of the range is not changed for a worse one by the substitution of the
joints.
NOTE See F.2.
4.1.4 Noise protection
For installed networks, there may be national installation regulations concerning noise protection, and
manufacturers could provide information about solutions for requirements (see also Annex F).
NOTE 1 For installed networks, there can be national installation regulations concerning noise protection, and
manufacturers could provide information about solutions for requirements (see also Annex F).
NOTE 2 Noise protection is not mandated under CPD. There are no national regulations concerning noise in direct
relation to the product.
4.1.5 Dangerous substances (regulated substances)
The materials which the products are made from shall not release dangerous substances (regulated
substances) in excess of the maximum permitted levels specified by a relevant European Standard for the
materials or permitted by national regulations in the territory of destination.
