This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, ei

According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following countries are bound

20、 to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom. A European Standard is will be prepared for microbiological deteri

21、oration requirements and when published it is intended that materials comply with the requirements of that standard. It is recommended that third party inspection be carried out at least twice a year without previous notice, the assessment body complying with the requirements of EN 45011 and EN 4501

22、2 or equivalent. Part 1 of this standard is based on ISO 4633 and ISO 9631, bringing these two sets of requirements (for cold and hot water respectively) under one specification. The major changes from ISO 4633 and ISO 9631 have been to incorporate requirements for effect on water quality and ozone

23、resistance. The emphasis in respect of low temperature testing has moved away from hardness measurement to compression set, which is more discriminating. Part 2 has been prepared by TC 208 in response to requests from CEN/TC 155 for a material specification for thermoplastic elastomer seals for use

24、in conjunction with non-pressure thermoplastic pipe systems. Part 3 has been prepared in response to those sections of the pipeline industry which employ cellular seals of vulcanized rubber. This standard should be used where appropriate with product standards which specify performance standards whi

25、ch specify performance requirements for joints. Seals and pipe joints using polyurethane elastomers should be designed and tested to take into account the different requirements compared with those specified in Part 1 of this standard.

33、 ScopeThis standard specifies requirements for materials used in factory cast polyurethane sealing elements used in joints for drainage, sewerage and rainwater systems and non-potable water supply for continuous flow up to 45 qC. General requirements for finished joint seals are also given; any addi

34、tional requirements called for by the particular application are specified in the relevant product standards taking into account that the performance of pipe joints is a function of the seal material properties, seal geometry and pipe joint design. This standard is applicable to joint seals for all

35、pipeline materials, including iron, steel, clay, fibre cement, concrete, plastics and glass-reinforced plastics. 2 Normative references This European Standard incorporates by dated or undated reference, provisions from other publications.

They correspond to a hardness range of (67 5) IRHD. 4 Requirements4.1 MaterialsThe materials shall be free of any substances which may have a deleterious effect

42、on the fluid being conveyed or on the life of the sealing element, or on the pipe or fitting. 4.2 Finished seal requirements4.2.1 Dimensional tolerancesTolerances shall be specified from Class E2 of ISO 3302-1 or in relevant product standards. 4.2.2 Imperfections and defectsThe seals shall be free o

43、f defects or irregularities which affect their function. Classification of imperfections shall be according to ISO 9691:1992 as follows: - surface imperfections in zones involved in the sealing function as described in 4.1.1 of ISO 9691:1992 shall be considered as defects; - surface imperfections in

44、 zones not involved in the sealing function as described in 4.1.2.1b) of ISO 9691:1992 shall not be considered as defects. NOTE 1: Major surface imperfections in zones not involved in the sealing function as described in 4.1.2.1a) of ISO 9691:1992 could be considered as defects. This should be agree

45、d between the interested parties; the acceptance criteria depend upon the seals type or design respectively. NOTE 2: Internal imperfections as described in 4.2 of ISO 9691:1992 could be considered as defects. The compressive force can be determined according to ISO 77431. The acceptable limiting val

46、ues of the compressive force should be agreed between the interested parties; they depend upon the seals type or design respectively. 1ISO 7743, Rubber, vulcanized or thermoplastic - Determination of compression stress - strain properties Page 7 EN 681-4:2000 4.2.3 HardnessWhen determined by the mic
