15、-connect pressure fittings was initiated bySubcommittee J of the ASME B16 Committee in 2000. The first draft of the Standard was basedon International Association of Plumbing and Mechanical Officials (IAPMO) Interim GuideCriteria IGC 137-2000. The general requirements of ASME B16.22-2000 and ASME B1
16、6.24-1998were added to the first draft. The development of the Standard was necessary to regulate thestrength of the joint in copper press-connect fittings. The performance test requirements of thisStandard are an important aspect for determining the quality of the fittings.Following approval by the
17、 Standards Committee and the ASME Board on PTCS, approval asan American National Standard was given by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI)on December 21, 2011 with the designation ASME B16.51-2011.In this 2013 edition, provisions have been included to recognize low lead alloys to comply
18、with the U.S. Safe Drinking Water Act, which will be effective January 2014. Following approvalby the ASME B16 Standards Committee, approval as an American National Standard was givenby ANSI on July 29, 2013 with the new designation ASME B16.51-2013.Requests for interpretation or suggestions for rev

28、drawn seam-less copper water tube conforming to ASTM B88 forpiping systems conveying water. The press-connect sys-tem (tube, fitting, and joint) conforming to this Standardis for use at a maximum pressure of 1 380 kPa (200 psi)over the temperature range from 0C to 93C (32F to200F).This Standard prov
