12、ormation about this documentThis British Standard includes specific national requirements that are notspecified in BS EN 14339 and BS EN 1074-6.It has been assumed in the drafting of this British Standard that the executionof its provisions is entrusted to appropriately qualified and experienced peo
13、ple,for whose guidance it has been prepared.Presentational conventionsThe provisions of this standard are presented in roman (i.e. upright) type. Itsrequirements are expressed in sentences in which the principal auxiliary verb is“shall”.Commentary, explanation and general informative material is pre
14、sented insmaller italic type, and does not constitute a normative element.Contractual and legal considerationsThis publication does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of acontract.

15、unity from legalobligations.BRITISH STANDARDBS 750:2012ii The British Standards Institution 2012IntroductionA fire hydrant is installed primarily for use by the Fire and Rescue Service (FRS)to quickly secure a supply of water to extinguish a fire in the vicinity. A firehydrant may also be installed
16、for other purposes that allow a water supplieraccess to the pressurized water network.NOTE A fire hydrant installed for non-fire fighting purposes is commonly known asa washout.The water supplier is responsible for installing and maintaining fire hydrants forboth purposes.It is advisable to consult
17、the FRS and the water supplier during the developmentof products conforming to this standard. In general terms, the FRS requires quickaccess to a supply of water from a fire hydrant using an operating key/bar and astandpipe. The water supplier does not require such quick access but carries awider ra
18、nge of tools and equipment for operation and maintenance.1 ScopeThis British Standard specifies the operational and health and safetyrequirements for underground fire hydrants conforming to the dimensional,material and performance requirements of BS EN 14339 and BS EN 1074-6. Italso includes specifi
19、c national requirements not included in BS EN 14339 andBS EN 1074-6.This British Standard applies to underground fire hydrants:a) to be installed in a water supply system;b) size DN80;c) suitable for a maximum allowable operating pressure (PFA) of 1.6 MPaor 2.5 MPa (16 bar or 25 bar);d) with operati
20、ng valves; ande) with one outlet.It also specifies requirements for their surface box frames and covers.2 Normative referencesThe following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in thisdocument and are indispensable for its application.

32、um of 50 years. This shall bedetermined by reference to:a) the properties of the materials used in the construction;b) the engineering design of the fire hydrant;c) the normal situation of installation; andd) the conditions of use.Where materials have time-dependent properties, these shall be select
33、ed withreference to the manufacturers data on such properties to determine theirsuitability for the function and life span.Where components of the fire hydrant are designed to be serviceable, this shallnot be regarded as a reason to design for a shorter operating life.Serviceable components shall in
34、clude those having potential for accidentaldamage and wear from abnormal use.The manufacturer shall ensure that parts that are considered to be subject towear shall be available for the lifetime of the valve.Fire hydrants shall be one of the following two types:1) type 1 (see 4.2 and Figure 1);2) ty
