Valves covered by this International Standard shall be furnished in one of the following classes: ⎯ PN 20 (class 150); ⎯ PN 50 (class 300); ⎯ PN 64 (class 400); ⎯ PN 100 (class 600); ⎯ PN 150 (class 900); ⎯ PN 250 (class 1500); ⎯ PN 420 (class 2500). If intermediate design pressures and temperatures are specified by the purchaser, the pressure- temperature rating shall be determined by linear interpolation. The minimum design temperature shall be 0 °C unless otherwise specified by the purchaser. 7.4 External pressure and loads The purchaser shall specify any other construction, test, functional or accidental load combinations that shall be accounted for in the design. NOTE ISO 13623 specifies construction, functional and accidental loads and provides examples of such loads for consideration by the purchaser. 7.7 Valve operation The purchaser should specify the method of operation and the maximum pressure differential (MPD) at which the valve is required to be opened by the lever, gearbox or actuator. If not specified, the pressure rating as determined in accordance with 7.2 for material at 38 °C (100 °F) shall be the MPD. The manufacturer shall provide the following data to the purchaser, if requested: ⎯ flow coefficient Cv or Kv; ⎯ breakaway thrust or torque for new valve;
