5、on.General Informationii Spill Resistant Vacuum Breaker Assemblies ASSE Standard #1056 - 2013This foreword shall not be considered a part of the standard; however, it is offered to provide background information.ASSE International is dedicated to the preservation of public health and safety through

6、its guiding principle, “Prevention Rather Than Cure.”The ASSE International Standards Program systematically evaluates new technologies through formal requests and addresses the development and promulgation of performance standards designed to safeguard public health and safety.ASSE International ha

7、s long recognized the need for backflow protection against the condition known as “backsiphonage.” ASSE Standard #1001 was developed for plumbing applications that are not under continuous pressure, but it was evident that systems under continuous pressure could effectively use a similar method of b

8、reaking a vacuum to prevent siphonage. This led to the development of ASSE Standard #1020.It has been recognized that ASSE Standard #1020 was developed in anticipation of outdoor applications. As a result of the specific requirements of the hydraulic operation of the air inlet vent in ASSE 1020, wat

9、er may discharge in its normal operation.The development of ASSE Standard #1056 specifically addressed the indoor applications offering the same vacuum breaker capabilities of ASSE 1020, but solving the problem of water discharging each time the assembly was pressurized. As with the ASSE 1020 assemb

10、lies, a check valve backed up with an air inlet vent that opens in response to a loss of supply pressure accomplishes backflow protection against backsiphonage.ASSE Standard #1056 assemblies, when installed properly, are suitable for high hazard protection, but just as ASSE 1001 and ASSE 1020, are l

11、imited to backsiphonage protection and are not to be used to protect against backpressure-type backflow.Performance standards for systems and assemblies must be reviewed periodically and upgraded as research, field conditions and experience suggest. The policy of ASSE International is to review each

12、 standard on a five-year cycle for revisions or reaffirmation. Between such reviews, the Product Standards Committee works with interested groups to obtain information for study and evaluation of product performance requirements.Although many of the material specifications are detailed within Sectio

13、n IV of this standard, it is the responsibility of the manufacturer to comply with the requirements of the Safe Drinking Water Act, United States Public Law 93-523.The working group that developed this standard revision was set up within the framework of the Product Standards Committee of ASSE Inter

14、national.Recognition is made of the time volunteered by members of this working group and of the support of manufacturers who also participated in meetings for this standard.This standard does not imply ASSE Internationals endorsement of a product that conforms to these requirements.ForewordSpill Re

16、with procedures developed by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI).This edition of ASSE Standard #1056 was approved by the ASSE International Board of Directors as an ASSE standard.iv Spill Resistant Vacuum Breaker Assemblies ASSE Standard #1056 - 2013Edward J.

In the absence of a critical level (CL) mark on an assembly, the extreme bottom of the body casting shall be considered the critical level of the assembly for testing and installation purposes.1.2 Scope1.2.1 DescriptionThis standard applies only to those assemblies clas

19、sified as spill resistant vacuum breaker assemblies (SVB). These assemblies are designed for installation in water systems that are normally under continuous pressure conditions.The assembly includes one (1) check valve force-loaded closed, an air inlet valve force-loaded open to atmosphere, positio

20、ned downstream of the check valve, two (2) tightly closing shut-off valves and two (2) test cocks or a #1 test cock and a bleed valve.1.2.2 Size RangeThe inlet and outlet nominal pipe sizes are NPS (8 DN), NPS (10 DN), NPS (15 DN), NPS (20 DN), 1 NPS (25 DN), 1 NPS (32 DN), 1 NPS (40 DN) and 2 NPS (

21、50 DN).1.2.3 Pressure These assemblies shall be designed for a working pressure of at least 150.0 psi (1034.2 kPa).1.2.4 Temperature RangeThese assemblies shall be designed for a temperature range of 33.0 F to 140.0 F (0.6 C to 60.0 C) or the manufacturers maximum rated temperature, whichever is gre

23、hall be designed to withstand, without permanent distortion, the stresses developed by the specified hydrostatic test with operations under a specified unbalanced pressure condition.1.3.3 Mechanical Function1.3.3.1 Female Pipe Threaded ConnectionsFemale pipe threaded connections shall be tapped into

24、 bosses in the body and shall be so constructed that it is not possible to thread a pipe far enough to restrict the flow through the assembly or interfere with working parts.1.3.3.2 Repairability(a) The internal parts of the assembly shall be accessible for inspection, repairs or replacements. The d

25、esign shall permit servicing without removing the assembly from the line using the shut-off valves to isolate the assembly.(b) All replacement parts of the assemblies of the same size and model shall be interchangeable with the original parts.(c) Seats shall be replaceable.1.3.4 Check ValveThe check

26、 valve shall be force loaded (biased) to a normally closed position under static conditions.1.3.5 Air Inlet Valve1.3.5.1 The air inlet valve shall be force loaded (biased) to a normally open position when the supply pressure is atmospheric. It shall be located above the outlet of the assembly so tha

27、t when the downstream line drains, all water above the bottom of the outlet pipes, up to the air vent, will drain by gravity.1.3.5.2 The air inlet valve shall begin to open when the inlet pressure drops to a value of 1.0 psi (6.9 kPa) or greater, and the air inlet shall be fully open when the inlet

28、pressure is at atmospheric.1.3.5.3 There shall be no water leakage from the vent when the assembly is pressurized from atmospheric up to its maximum rated working pressure.1.3.5.4 The air inlet shall have air flow passages sufficient to satisfy the vacuum breaking requirements of the standard.1.3.6

29、Air Flow PassagesThe air vent inlet entrance shall be protected against the accumulation of debris, which reduces the area of flow passages and adversely affects the performance of the assembly.
