The work of preparing International Stan

8、dards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also t

9、ake part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.The main task of technical committees is

10、 to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.Attention is drawn to the possibility

11、 that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.ISO 12176-1 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 138, Plastics pipes, fittings and valves for the transport of fluids, Subcommittee S

12、C 4, Plastics pipes and fittings for the supply of gaseous fuels.This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition (ISO 12176-1:2006), which has been technically revised.ISO 12176 consists of the following parts, under the general title Plastics pipes and fittings Equipment for fusion joint

25、erating on site, in order to achieve and maintain the fusion parameters specified for the pipe4 Design configurationsTo conform to the requirements of this part of ISO 12176, butt fusion machines may have different design configurations, as follows: a mechanical linkage system for force generation;

26、a hydraulic hand-pump system for force generation; a semi-automatic externally powered system for force generation (manual preset of pressure); a semi-automatic system incorporating a device for monitoring and recording the fusion parameters; an automatic system that controls and records the fusion

27、parameters.Machines are generally designed for well-defined ranges of diameters, SDR ratios and fusion cycles.Each component of the machine shall conform to relevant national safety regulations.Machines which record fusion data shall be capable of transferring the data for further use.5 Chassis and

28、clamps5.1 GeneralThe butt fusion machine shall be as maintenance-free as possible.2 ISO 2012 All rights reservedISO 12176-1:2012(E)The base framework of the butt fusion machine shall provide rigidity and stability without unnecessary weight.The butt fusion machine shall be sufficiently robust to wit

29、hstand normal field use.The chassis shall provide facilities for the alignment of and relative movement between pipes and/or fittings.The butt fusion machine shall incorporate a facility for supporting the heating plate and planing tool when in use. This support shall not affect transmission of inte

30、rface forces across the heating plate and shall not prevent proper alignment of the heating plate during the heating operation.The butt fusion machine shall be capable of making satisfactory joints at ambient temperature and under normal worksite conditions with pipes and fittings at extremes of dim

31、ensional tolerances.With butt fusion machines designed for use in narrow trenches, the design and construction of the clamps shall enable the butt fusion machine to be removed from the trench after fusion without damaging the PE pipe.The base framework shall be fitted with a minimum of two clamps, o

32、ne fixed and one moveable, to position the PE pipes during the fusion cycle. These clamps shall be designed to enable the pipes to be positioned or removed quickly.The clamps shall grip the circumference of the pipes and fittings and shall be designed and dimensioned to avoid damage to the pipe or f

33、itting surfaces.To avoid human damage, the clamp jaws should preferably be designed so that they cannot close to less than a certain minimum distance apart.No adjustment of the centreline of either pipe shall be required after changing the relevant parts to accommodate different pipe sizes. The clam

34、ps, inserts and liners shall not damage the pipe or fitting.Clamps and/or liners for each pipe size should preferably be interchangeable between similar machines made by the same manufacturer.The maximum number of removable clamping layers shall be three for machines for pipe diameters up to and inc

This can be attained, for example, by coating the surface with coloured PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) or by other surface treatments. The colour of the PTFE coating shall be such that, after the tool has be

39、en used for jointing operations, the presence of any surplus PE on the plate will be readily visible, regardless of any degradation of the PE or of the PTFE coating.No release spray of any type, such as PTFE, shall be used at any time during the jointing cycle. Such a spray coating can be transferre

40、d to the fusion interface during the jointing procedure.Alternatively, the heating plate may be made of hard-chromed or stainless steel.8.4 Heating systemThe heating plate shall be electrically heated.For heating systems with electrical-resistance heater elements, the heating plate shall be fitted w

45、e coatings.If the heating-plate surfaces have a coating made of PTFE or some other non-stick material, then the contact faces shall have a maximum roughness Ra of 2,5 m when measured in accordance with 10.3.1.8.5.2 The coating shall be capable of withstanding for at least 1 h a temperature of 270 C.

46、 After cooling to ambient temperature and reheating to the fusion temperature, the coating material shall meet all requirements on it.The temperature control system shall be such that the contact surface temperature is controlled to within 7 C of the required temperature over the range 170 C to 260

47、C under ambient operating conditions in the temperature range 10 C to + 40 C.The temperature control system shall also conform to these criteria before and after 50 test cycles of heating and cooling between ambient temperature and the operating temperature in accordance with 10.3.2.8.5.3 The therma
