19、pes for: repair of damaged pipelines; connecting pipes of different materials and/or diameters; jointing short/cut lengths of pipe; jointing specific pipe systems; jointing post-inserted preformed junctions. Typically a coupling consists of a moulded or extruded flexible sleeve with two clamping ban

20、ds with or without a shear band. The clamping bands enable the sleeve to form a seal with the pipes to be jointed. The shear band gives resistance to shear forces. Connections may be made between pipes which cannot be satisfactorily jointed by a coupling alone, of dissimilar sizes or material, by us

34、rd. When fitted according to the manufacturers instructions, flexible couplings and adaptors and bushes shall not damage or distort the pipes to which they are connected. Flexible couplings and adaptors and bushes shall be free from such defects as would impair their function when in service. 5.2 Ma

35、terials All materials used in flexible couplings and adaptors and bushes shall comply with the specific material characteristics in accordance with EN 16397-2. 5.3 Dimensional tolerances NOTE The requirements on tolerances and dimensions are specified in EN 16397-2. 5.4 Tightness of joint assemblies

36、 5.4.1 General Joint assemblies using flexible couplings and adaptors and bushes shall meet the requirements of 5.4.2, 5.4.3, 5.4.4 and 5.4.5. Couplings and adaptors shall be tested in assemblies comprising both rigid pipes, both flexible pipes and a combination of rigid pipes with flexible pipes. W

37、hen bushes are supplied as part of the product range a minimum of one test per test configuration shall include at least one bush/coupling combination. In addition when subjected to the test specified in the material specific part of this European Standard (EN 16397-2), the maximum sized coupling as

38、sembled with the thickest bush supplied and the appropriate pipes from each designated size group and test mode shall be tested at the recommended assembly torque. BS EN 16397-1:2014EN 16397-1:2014 (E) 9 5.4.2 Test pressures Joint assemblies using couplings incorporating a shear band shall meet the

39、requirements of 5.4.3 and 5.4.4, when tested at an internal pressure of 100 kPa (1,0 bar) in accordance with 6.1.2. Joint assemblies using couplings or adaptors without a shear band shall meet the requirements of 5.4.3 and 5.4.4, when tested at an internal pressure of 50 kPa (0,5 bar) in accordance

40、with 6.1.2. If products covered by this standard are required to withstand continuous working under low pressure (i.e. continuous surcharge flow is expected, e.g. for water transfer pipelines), the test pressure shall be higher than specified above for either type of coupling or adaptor. The higher

41、test pressure should be agreed between manufacturer and specifier. Joint assemblies using couplings incorporating a shear band shall meet the requirements of 5.4.3 and 5.4.4 when tested with a vacuum pressure of -0,25 bar (0,75 bar absolute) when tested in accordance with 6.1.3.

This should

45、 be either 6.1.5.1, 6.1.5.3 and 6.1.5.4 or 6.1.5.2, 6.1.5.3 and 6.1.5.4. 5.4.4.2 Joint assemblies connecting rigid pipes For joint assemblies connecting pipelines of materials which do not undergo significant diametral deformation under shear test load (e. g. vitrified clay, concrete, cast-iron, duc

46、tile iron, steel and fibre-cement) an external load FZ(see Formula 1) shall be applied to one pipe to produce a minimum shear load at the joint assembly of 25 N per millimetre of nominal size. The joint assembly shall withstand the test pressures specified in 5.4.2 for 15 min without visible leakage

47、 or more than 10 % change in pressure after the pressure has stabilised. The clamping bands, shear bands, their adjustors and any means of attaching adjustors shall not exhibit any obvious signs of physical distress or degradation.
