Specifies requirements for the design, construction, testing performance and means of compliance for metallic-bodied thermostatic mixing valves.

This Standard specifies requirements for the design, construction, testing performance and means of compliance for metallic-bodied thermostatic mixing valvesof nominal sizes not larger than DN50;for use with hot water at a supply temperature not exceeding 90C; andfor use with hot and cold water with working pressures not exceeding 1400kPa.When used for ablutionary purposes, thermostatic mixing valves complying with this Standard provide the user with reasonable protection against scalding or excessive temperature fluctuations due to variations of pressures and temperatures of the hot and cold water supplies, including shut-off of either the cold or hot water supply.Diagrams in this Standard are typical and chosen without prejudice.Thermostatic mixing valves require routine maintenance and performance testing in accordance with AS4032.3.
