WRAS Approved Solenoid Valves – Certified for Safe Drinking Water Applications
WRAS Certified Solenoid Valves for Potable Water Systems
At Solenoid-Valve.World, we supply a wide selection of WRAS approved solenoid valves that are fully compliant with UK Water Regulations. These valves are specifically tested and certified to be safe for use with drinking water and are an essential component for any plumbing, HVAC, or commercial water control system in the UK and beyond.
What is WRAS Approval?
The WRAS (Water Regulations Approval Scheme) certification confirms that a valve:
Is made from materials safe for contact with potable (drinking) water
Will not cause contamination, odour, or discolouration
Meets UK legal requirements under the Water Supply (Water Fittings) Regulations, 1999
WRAS approval is mandatory for valves used in public and private water systems in the UK where the valve is in direct contact with drinking water.
Potable water or Drinking WRAS water solenoid valves that connect directly to UK and Euro zone mains water supply require the appropriate water approvals. The UK accepted approvals are WRAS (Water Regulations Advisory Scheme) and WRc (Water Research Centre) and within the rest of the Euro zone require DVGW and KTW approvals which may include the homogenisation's of UNI EN 681-1/2003 WB e WA, DVGW W270, DVGW W534, CLP, ACS, KIWA, TGM-LMG 75.

What is WRc approval.
WRc Approval is a fit for purpose certification is a voluntary scheme conducted by the Water Research centre to help solenoid valve and other water equipment suppliers and manufacturers demonstrate quality of manufacturing and performance. More importantly, products used on water applications that conform to WRc quality, installation and performance will protect our delicate drinking water system from dangerous and harmful debris, chemicals and solvents which could leach dangerously back into the water system and be consumed.
WRc approval and certification offers value to International, Euro Zone and UK companies with existing approvals from USA, Holland, Japan, France, Austria, New Zealand, Australia and Germany.
