Article 2
For the purpose of this Decision, the following definitions shall apply: (1) ‘flushing toilet equipment’ means either a toilet suite, a toilet receptacle or a toilet flushing system; (2) ‘toilet suite’ means a sanitary appliance combining into a functioning unit a flushing system and a toilet receptacle for receiving and flushing away human urine and faeces and directing it into a drainage system; (3) ‘toilet receptacle’ means a sanitary appliance for receiving and flushing away human urine and faeces and directing it into a drainage system; (4) ‘urinal equipment’ means either a urinal suite, a urinal, a flush-free urinal or a urinal flushing system; (5) ‘flushing urinal equipment’ means either a urinal suite, a urinal or a urinal flushing system; (6) ‘urinal suite’ means a sanitary appliance combining into a functioning unit a flushing system and a urinal for receiving and flushing away urine and directing it into a drainage system; (7) ‘urinal’ means a sanitary appliance for receiving urine and water used for flushing and directing both into a drainage system; (8) ‘slab urinal’ means a sanitary appliance with or without flushing system comprising a floor channel and a slab or sheet fixed to a wall, for receiving urine and water used for flushing and directing both into a drainage system; (9) ‘flush-free urinal’ means a sanitary appliance for receiving urine and directing it into a drainage system, which functions without water; (10) ‘flushing system’ means, for both flushing toilet and flushing urinal equipment, either a flushing cistern with integral warning pipe connection – or a device deemed to be a no less effective device and inlet/outlet devices, or a pressure flush valve; (11) ‘water-saving device’ means a flushing device that permits a part of the full flush volume to be delivered either as double-action mechanisms (interruptible) or double-control mechanisms (dual flush); (12) ‘full flush volume’ means the total volume of water discharged from the flushing system during a flush cycle; (13) ‘reduced flush volume’ means the part of the full flush volume of water discharged by a water-saving device during a flush cycle no greater than two thirds of the full flush volume; (14) ‘average flush volume’ means the arithmetic average of one full flush volume and three reduced flush volumes calculated by following the methodology set out in Appendix 1 to the Annex; (15) ‘on-demand flush control’ means a flushing device of a sanitary appliance, which can be operated either manually by the user through a handle, lever, button, foot pedal or any equivalent flush actuator, or by a sensor detecting the use of the sanitary appliance; (16) ‘adjusting device’ means a device which allows the full flush volume and, if relevant, the reduced flush volume of a flushing system to be adjusted.
