scope:
This Standard specifies the requirements for buried polyethylene pipes (hereafter referred to as pipes) used for the supply of town gas and liquefied petroleum gas.
NOTE The International Standards corresponding to this Standard and the symbol of degree of correspondence are as follows.
ISO 4437-1 : 2014 Plastics piping systems for the supply of gaseous fuels - Polyethylene (PE) - Part 1 : General
ISO 4437-2 : 2014 Plastics piping systems for the supply of gaseous fuels - Polyethylene (PE) - Part 2 : Pipes (Overall evaluation : MOD)
In addition, symbols which denote the degree of correspondence in the contents between the relevant International Standards and JIS are IDT (identical), MOD (modified), and NEQ (not equivalent) according to ISO/IEC Guide 21-1.
The maximum operating pressure (MOP) of the polyethylene pipe-fittings for the supply of gaseous fuels conforming to JIS K 6775-1, JIS K 6775-2 and JIS K 6775-3 and their joints, and joints with components of polyethylene or other materials is based on the design stress determined from the compound minimum required strength (MRS) divided by C factor [overall service (design) coefficient], and taking into account rapid crack propagation (RCP) requirements.
