This International Standard specifies fire type-testing requirements and a fire type-test method for confirming
the pressure-containing capability of a valve under pressure during and after the fire test. It is not applicable to
the testing requirements for valve actuators other than manually operated gear boxes or similar mechanisms
when these form part of the normal valve assembly. Other types of valve actuators (e.g. electrical, pneumatic
or hydraulic) can need special protection to operate in the environment considered in this valve test, and the
fire testing of such actuators is outside the scope of this International Standard.
Fire test certificates of valves previously tested according to previous editions of ISO 10497 and to similar
internationally recognized fire test standards are also acceptable.
NOTE For the purposes of this International Standard, the terms “fire type-test” and “fire test” are synonymous.
