Safety Standards
Depending on the type and pressure rating, ARGUS ball valves are designed to conform with national and
international regulations, such as DIN 3357, AD and VdTÜV-Merkblätter, TRbF, TRGL, TRD, TRG, DVGW,
BS 5351, API6D and ANSI B16.34.
Design certifications and DIN-DVGW certificates are available. The acceptance of the fittings is carried out
according to DIN 3230 or specific customer requirements.
The reliability of fittings sealed with soft materials in case of fire, or even at temperatures above +600 °C is
confirmed by the Fire-Safe Certificate and can be verified using BS 6755and/or API 607.
Authorized testing institutions such as TÜV, German Lloyd, BS, Lloyds Register, DNV, Bureau Veritas, etc.,
carry out further tests on behalf of ARGUS or customers at regular intervals.
Compliance with Quality Assurance procedures under ISO 9001 was certified by DQS (German Society for
Quality Assurance).
