scope:

Pipe manufactured to this standard is generally well suited for conveying potable water, reclaimed water, irrigation water, wastewater, or any fl uid compatible with nonplasticized PVC. Th e standard includes eight dimension ratio (DRs) and nominal pipe sizes ranging from 14 in. through 48 in. (350 mm through 1,200 mm). Pipe outside diameters (ODs) conform to those established for castiron- equivalent ODs (CIOD) and steel-pipe-equivalent ODs (IPS). Pressure classes range from 80 psi (550 kPa) to 305 psi (2,100 kPa). Sec. 

Purpose

The purpose of this standard is to provide purchasers, manufacturers, and suppliers with the minimum manufacturing, verifi cation, and delivery requirements for PVC pressure pipe and fabricated fi ttings, 14 in. (350 mm) through 48 in. (1,200 mm).
