About This Item
TS EN 736-1 is a terminology standard for valves that establishes a common language for naming different valve types. It organizes valve-related terms by separating basic design characteristics from functional characteristics, helping engineering teams, procurement staff, and technical writers use the same concepts consistently.
How the valve terminology is organised
The standard groups valve terms into two main categories. Basic design characteristics relate to the structural and geometric features of a valve, while functional characteristics describe how the valve behaves in service and what role it plays in flow control. This distinction helps avoid ambiguity when the same valve is discussed in different technical contexts and supports consistent use across drawings, catalogues, and specifications.
In general technical practice, valve terminology matters because valves are used to start, stop, regulate, direct, or prevent reverse flow in piping systems. Clear definitions make it easier to compare product types, design systems, and maintain documentation. The value of this standard is that it brings those terms into a uniform and systematic framework.
- Its scope is the naming of valves and the systematic arrangement of terminology.
- Clause 4 covers terms related to basic design characteristics.
- Clause 5 covers terms related to functional characteristics.
- Its purpose is to provide uniform terminology for valve types.
