Plastics piping systems - Glas-reinforced thermosetting plastics (GRP) pipes and fittings - Test methods to prove the leaktightness of the wall under short-term internal pressure
| Organization: | NEN |
| Publication Date: | 1 December 1993 |
| Status: | inactive |
| ICS Code (Plastics pipes and fittings for non fluid use): | 83.140.30 |
scope:
This standard specifies two test methods, designated method A and method B, for rapid testing of the leaktightness of glass-reinforced thermosetting plastics (GRP) pipes and fittings under short-term internal pressure. Method A is a hydraulic test applicable to a pipe under uniaxial or biaxial stress, as applicable to the design of the pipe. Method B is a pneumatic test applicable to pipes and fittings. For pipes it is intended to be complementary to method A, not an alternative test.
