This European Standard specifies: - the dimensional, mechanical and hydraulic characteristics with which the hose for extractable outlets shall comply; - the procedures for testing these characteristics. This standard applies to hoses for extractable outlets of any material intended for equipping sanitary tapware for sinks and basins. They may only be connected downstream of the obturator of the tapware. The tapware shall comply with EN 200, EN 817, EN 1111, EN 1286 or EN 1287. Hoses intended to connect sanitary tapware to the water supplies are not covered by this standard. This document has been prepared by CEN/TC 164 "Water supply" (secretariat: AFNOR, France).
