3、 method describes the general requirements forevaluating the long-term, chlorinated water, oxidative resis-tance of polyethylene (PE), used in cold water supply orservice systems by exposure to chlorinated water. This testmethod outlines the requirements of a pressurized flow-throughtest system, typ

5、 other than chlorine have not been evaluated by thismethod.1.2 Guidelines and requirements for test temperatures, testhoop stresses, and other test criteria have been established byprior testing of PE pipe. Other related system components thattypically appear in a PE cold water supply or service sys
6、temcan be evaluated with the PE pipe. When testing PE pipe andfittings as a system, it is recommended that the anticipatedend-use fitting type(s) and material(s) be included in the testcircuit since it is known that some fitting types and materialscan impact failure times. Specimens used shall be re

Summary of Test Method4.1 The PE pipe/fitting assemblies are exposed to pressur-ize
23、d test-fluid until failure. All time-to-fail data used foranalysis shall be the result of the same failure mode, either allstage II or all stage III. A minimum number of test temperatureand hoop stress conditions are required to allow accurate dataanalysis and time-to-failure extrapolations. If usin
24、g only stageII failure data, no lifetime extrapolations can be made withoutfurther validation.5. Significance and Use5.1 Environment or oxidative time-to-fail data derived fromthis test method, analyzed in accordance with Section 13, aresuitable for extrapolation to typical end-use temperatures andh
25、oop stresses. The extrapolated value(s) provides a relativeindication of the resistance of the tested PE pipe or system tothe oxidative effects of chlorinated water for conditions equiva-lent to those conditions under which the test data wereobtained. The performance of a material or piping productu
26、nder actual conditions of installation and use is dependentupon a number of factors including installation methods, usepatterns, water quality, nature and magnitude of localizedstresses, and other variables of an actual, operating cold watersupply or service system that are not addressed in this tes
27、tmethod. As such, the extrapolated values do not constitute arepresentation that a PE pipe or system with a given extrapo-lated time-to-failure value will perform for that period of timeunder actual use conditions.5.2 This test method has been generally used for evaluatingoxidative (stage III) failu
28、re data. For some systems being testedaccelerated stage II failures can occur. These failures can alsobe analyzed using the regression analysis outlined in Section13. Extrapolation of this data may need to be validated prior tomaking any lifetime predictions.6. Apparatus6.1 Pressurized Flow-Through

30、cimens continually at a flowrate within the tolerance specified in 9.1.4. Cyclic pressurevariations, such as those produced by some pumping systems,shall not produce pressure excursions that exceed the tolerancestated in 9.1.3.6.2 Specimen HoldersTest specimens shall be supportedto minimize or elimi

The PE pipe specimens shall be 12 to 18
33、 in.(300 to 460 mm) in length between fitting closures or betweenfitting joints.7.2.1 Dimensions MeasurementMeasure and record thecritical dimensions for pipe and fittings. For pipe, measure theaverage outside diameter and wall-thickness in accordancewith Test Method D 2122. For fittings, measure th
34、ose dimen-sions critical to the function of the joint, as well as minimumbody wall thickness.7.3 Testing as a SystemWhen testing PE pipe and relatedsystem components (such as fittings) as a system, the othercomponents shall be attached to the PE pipe in the samemanner as in actual service. For fitti
35、ngs, the particular fittingstyle shall be installed in accordance with the manufacturersinstructions or the ASTM specification when applicable.7.4 Minimum Required Test UnitsA minimum of six testunits is required. A test unit is comprised of two or moreindividual time-to-failure data points at the s
36、ame temperatureand hoop stress condition. Obtaining additional data points ateach temperature/hoop stress condition will benefit statisticalreliability of the analysis of the resultant data.7.4.1 Test Unit DistributionTime-to-failure data pointsshall be obtained at 2 test hoop stresses at each of a
37、minimumof 3 test temperatures for a minimum of 12 data points. As analternate, obtain time-to-failure data for the temperature/hoopstress combinations of the three-temperature matrix of PPITN-16, see Note 3. Hoop stresses shall be separated by a least80 psi (0.55 MPa).NOTE 3When using the PPI TN-16
38、matrix, Temperature T3, whichrequires testing at only one stress, refers to the lowest test temperature.7.4.2 Test Temperature SelectionTemperatures of 90C(194F), 80C (176F), and 70C (158F) have been utilized inprior testing of PE, see Note 4.Adjacent test temperatures shallbe separated by at least
39、18F (10C). Other test temperaturesmay be used, but the maximum test temperature shall notexceed 95C (203F).NOTE 4Prior testing indicates that for the test temperatures stated in7.4.2, hoop stresses to yield Stage II or III failures within reasonabletesting times are between 120 psi (830 kPa) and 480
40、 psi (3.31 MPa). Fora true SDR 9 tube, those hoop stresses correspond to test pressures of 30psig (207 kPa) to 120 psig (830 kPa). If a selected test hoop stressproduces Stage I failures, the stress will need to be reduced to produce allStage II or all Stage III failures at all temperatures.7.4.2.1
41、Relationship of Internal Pressure to Hoop StressThe hoop stress in the pipe wall is calculated by the followingexpression, commonly known as the ISO equation:2S/P 5 DR 2 1 (1)or2S/P 5 Do/t! 2 1 (2)where:S = stress in the circumferential or hoop direction, psi(MPa),P = internal pressure, psig (kPa),t

Calibration and Standardization8.1 Measuring EquipmentAll measuring and testingequipment having an effect on the accuracy or validity of thecalibrations or tests shall be calibrated or verified

Test Fluid9.1 Internal Test FluidThe test fluid shall be reverseosmosis (RO) or deionized (DI) water prepared in accordancewith 9.1.1.9.1.1 RO or DI Water Test-Fluid PreparationTest fluidprepared from RO or DI water shall have a pH in the rangefrom 6.5 to 8
44、.0 and contain 2.5 ppm to 5 ppm (milligrams perlitre) of free-chlorine. The chosen pH shall be maintained to 60.2 and the chosen free-chlorine concentration shall be main-tained to 6 0.2 ppm. The pH and free-chlorine concentrationcombination shall yield a minimum ORPof 825 mV for the testfluid.9.1.2
45、 Test Fluid Temperature ControlThe test fluid enter-ing each specimen shall be maintained to 61.8F (61C) ofthe test temperature.9.1.3 Pressure ControlThe pressure of the test fluid shallbe maintained to 63 psig (620.69 kPa).9.1.4 Test Fluid Flow RateThe flow rate of the test fluidshall yield a minim
46、um velocity of 0.12 fps (0.04 mps). For thenominal size12 in., SDR 9 tubing, this corresponds to a flowrate of 0.06 gpm (0.23 LPM). The formula used to calculate theflow rates for other sizes and DRs is as follows:pid/2!2* FPS * 7202315 gpm (3)where:id = measured inside diameter of the tubing, in.9.
