16、ce for water closets. This Standard provides guidance to manufacturers, distributors,purchasers, and jurisdiction officials, specifiers, or water utility planners for water conservation, to promote betterunderstanding between suppliers and users, and to furnish a basis for fair competition in furnis

17、hing such productsto meet the principal demands of the trade.This Standard includes a series of tests for retrofit dual flush devices for modification of the flush volume from installedwater closets that use 1.28 gal per flush or a greater volume, to reduce water consumption, that may apply such con

18、troloptions to provide two distinctive modes of operation. The devices considered to be covered in this Standard are thoserequired to provide at least a 30% reduction in water consumption in the reduced flush mode and still meet the requiredperformance levels of the Standard.The reduction in water c

19、loset flush volume discharges that may be made by a variety of techniques, other than one oranother single motion selector actuation and leaving the unit, are not covered by this Standard. Other active or passivetechniques, or methods not covered, include, but are not restricted to: installation of

20、dams; displacement volumecontainers; cylindrical or other shaped water barrier containment elements; and hand-held observer, evaluator,and/or controls for termination of the flush. OEM devices are not covered by this Standard.The tests specified in this Standard for the removal of liquid wastes and

21、toilet tissues, or other comparable waste loads,are derived from industry experience, from field unit installations, independent laboratory evaluations by the methodsincluded herein, and research studies. The endeavor accounts for service requirements that are necessary for the sanitaryprotection pr

22、ovided by water closets and water conservation achievable through the installation of these devices. Thetests presented are from demonstrated applications by competent laboratory personnel and from other standards appli-cations giving results of suitable reproducibility for the purposes intended.ASM

23、E A112.19.10-1994 was the first edition of this Standard. The second edition, ASME A112.19.10-2003, changed theperformance requirements to provide for an acceptable amount of leakage. In addition, soft metric conversion of the U.S.customary units were added and a number of minor editorial errors hav

24、e been corrected.This revision of the 2003 edition has changed the scope of this Standard to cover retrofit devices which are to be fittedinto installed water closets that use 1.28 gal per flush or greater volume. This Standard was approved as an AmericanNational Standard on June 19, 2017.ivASME A11

34、, material, testing, and marking requirements for retrofit dual flush devices that areinstalled within gravity-type water closet tanks and have a full flush volume of 4.8 Lpf (1.28 gpf) or greater volume.1.2 Units of MeasurementThe values stated in either SI (metric) or U.S. Customary (inch/pound) u

35、nits of measure are to be regarded as thestandard. In this Standard, the inch/pound units are shown in parentheses. The values stated in each measurementsystem are equivalent in application; however, each system is to be used independently. Combining values from the twomeasurement systems can result

36、 in nonconformance with this Standard. All references to gallons are to U.S. gallons.1.3 ReferencesThe following document forms a part of this Standard to the extent specified herein.
