scope:
This Standard specifies a test method at 20°C for checking the resistance to internal hydrostatic pressure of any injection-moulded thermoplastics fittings with elastic sealing ring type joints for thermoplastics pressure having a nominal diameter, dn, less than or equal to 315 mm, where the joint is not intended to withstand hydrostatic end thrust. This method is intended for testing fittings over a period of the order of 1 h to 10 h at a pressure, which is material-dependent, and typically several times the nominal pressure of the fitting.
