17、o Inside back coverBS5433:1976 BSI 08-1999 iii Foreword This British Standard has been prepared under the authority of the Sanitary Appliances Standards Committee. The original idea for a British Standard for special stopvalves arose from a proposal by the then British Waterworks Association (now Na

18、tional Water Council) who had carried out an investigation among their members into the use and behaviour of valves based on BS1010:1959 when used underground. Experience of the exacting conditions and lack of accessibility in situations where they were installed led to the recommendation for a stro

19、nger valve with special design features to match the operating conditions. The dimensions given are those considered necessary to ensure the production of valves of nominal size“ to2 suitable for underground water services. It is recommended that the body of the valve and the metal components be bas

20、ed on gunmetals and bronzes for strength and that attention be given to resistance against dezincification. There is provision for alternative methods of operation by means of either a crutch-type handle or a square top. Provision is made for minimum opening torque so as to prevent the possibility o

21、f the head screwing out of the body when the stopvalve is being opened or turned with a key. BS1010:1959 has been retained and retitled “Part 1: Imperial units”. Above-ground stopvalves are now included in the metric version BS1010-2:1973. In this standard, dimensions are expressed in metric terms e

22、xcept that pipe thread designations accord with BS2779. Requirements for methods of testing suitability of materials for use in contact with water for domestic purposes will form the subject of a separate standard to be prepared under the direction of the Environment and Pollution Standards Committe

23、e (EPC/-). A British Standard does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contract. Users of British Standards are responsible for their correct application. Compliance with a British Standard does not of itself confer immunity from legal obligations. Summary of pages This document

24、 comprises a front cover, an inside front cover, pagesi to iv, pages1 to18, an inside back cover and a back cover. This standard has been updated (see copyright date) and may have had amendments incorporated. This will be indicated in the amendment table on the inside front cover.iv blankBS5433:1976

25、 BSI 08-1999 1 Section 1. General 1 Scope This British Standard applies to copper alloy screwdown stopvalves of nominal sizes from“ to2 for installation on underground water service pipes. The nominal size is that corresponding to the pipe size of the thread at the end connection. It includes stopva

26、lves with ends screwed internally or externally or arranged in accordance with clause25, and fitted with a crutch or with a square head. 2 References The titles of the publications referred to in this standard are listed on the inside back cover. 3 Definition For the purpose of this British Standard

27、 the following definition applies, together with any which are relevant in BS2591-1. screwdown stopvalves any valve in which a disc carrying a renewable non-metallic washer is lifted from and lowered onto the body seat by a spindle whose axis is perpendicular to the face of the body seat and having

28、suitable means of connection for insertion in a pipeline. The use of the word valve or stopvalve herein shall be taken to mean an underground stopvalve 4 Illustrations Illustrations of typical stopvalves showing the component parts are given in Figure 1 to Figure 6. These illustrations are not inten

29、ded to indicate design. 5 Nominal size Stopvalves shall be designated by their nominal sizes; their dimensions shall be as specified in Table 3 to Table 12. 6 Marking Stopvalves shall be legibly and permanently marked with the following information. On the headwork and body: a) manufacturers name or

30、 mark; b) the number of this British Standard, i.e.BS5433. On the body: c) nominal size; d) direction of flow. Section 2. Dimensions, testing and materials 7 Dimensions Dimensions for screw threads shall comply with those specified in Table 6 to Table 11. Other dimensions for valve bodies and compon

31、ents shall be as specified in Table 3, Table 4 and Table 5. Dimensions for parallel spigot and cone end tail pipes shall be as specified in Table 12. 8 Testing Every stopvalve shall be tested in the assembled condition both in the fully closed position (seat test) and in the fully open position (bod

32、y test). In both cases the test shall consist of either a hydraulic test at not less than21bar 1)or a pneumatic test at not less than5bar while the stopvalve is completely immersed in water. Alternatively, the body test may be carried out with the valve reversed and in the closed position. The valve

33、 being tested shall neither leak nor sweat during tests. 9 Materials 9.1 Composition. The preferred metallic materials for the component parts of underground stopvalves are those listed in Table 1. 9.2 Alternative materials. Other metallic materials may be used provided that they are not less suitab

34、le than those listed in Table 1, not more susceptible to corrosion, completely immune to dezincification and are not of lower mechanical strength. 9.3 Materials in contact with supply water. The materials which are in contact with supply water, including “O”-rings, gland packings, seat washers and l

35、ubricants used in the construction, shall not constitute a toxic hazard and shall not foster microbiological growth or give rise to taste, odour, cloudiness or discoloration of the water. Attention is drawn to National Water Council requirements in this respect. 1) 1bar= 10 5 N/m 2 =100kPa.BS5433:19
