It is a part r
8、evision of BS3682:1969 which is renumbered as BS3682-2 and declared obsolescent. This British Standard covers hoses normally used on traction units and rolling stock, e.g.inter-vehicle connections, complete vehicle air systems, body bogie connections, or as otherwise specified by the end user. The19
9、69 edition of BS3682 specified for coupling hoses only. This standard covers compressed air hose. The1969 edition of BS3682 specified requirements for both compressed air brake hose and vacuum brake hose. The requirements for vacuum brake hose are included in BS3682-2. Changes to requirements for co
10、mpressed air hose from the previous edition include the following: a) addition of construction requirements regarding end capping; b) clarification of the test for ozone cracking; c) addition of a hose assembly integrity test; d) reduction in the permitted angle of rotation under a hydrostatic press
11、ure test; e) marking of hose to reflect current practice; f) incorporation of a test to confirm suitable oil resistance of the liner; g) incorporation of hose assembly integrity tests. There is an awareness that there are user requirements to develop hoses with markedly reduced flammability and toxi
12、city for specific applications, e.g.underground services. Proposals also exist in EEC legislation which may in the future affect the standing of this standard and possibly other standards used in railway systems. A British Standard does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contra
13、ct. 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 comprises a front cover, an inside front cover, pagesi and ii, pages1 to6, an inside back cover a

This will be indicated in the amendment table on theinside front cover.BS3682-1:1994 BSI 04-1999 1 1 Scope This Part of BS3682 specifies requirements for hose used in the compressed air sys
15、tems of railway traction units and rolling stock. Hose for use in compressed air systems is operated at pressures up to a maximum of11.5 bar 1)and within the temperature range25C to+65C. 2 Normative references This Part of BS3682 incorporates, by dated or undated reference, provisions from other pub
16、lications. These normative references are cited at the appropriate points in the text and the publications are listed on the inside back cover. For dated references, only the edition cited applies; any subsequent amendments to or revisions of the cited publication apply to this Part of BS3682 only w
17、hen incorporated in the reference by amendment or revision. For undated references, the latest edition of the cited publication applies, together with any amendments. 3 Construction The hose shall consist of: a) a seamless rubber lining; b) a textile reinforcement; c) a rubber cover resistant to abr
18、asion, outdoor exposure and affording durability within the railway environment. Both the lining and the cover shall be uniform, free from air holes, porosity and other defects.

26、ed in BS903-A12 with a force applied as listed below, shall not separate at a rate of more than25.0mm(1in)per minute. The adhesion shall be tested between the following: a) inner lining and reinforcement:80 N 3) ; b) the layers of reinforcement (if more than one): 80N; c) reinforcement and outer cov
27、er: 71N. 5.3 Ageing resistance Samples of lining and cover similar to those prepared for5.1, shall be aged for(168 2)h at a temperature of(70 1)C in an oven as described in method A of BS903-A19. The samples, when tested as described in5.1, shall show results which do not vary by more than20%from th
28、e unaged values. 5.4 Low temperature A sample of hose25mm(1in) long shall be held for1h at a temperature of (30 2)C and whilststill at this temperature shall be compressedbetween parallel plates until the inner surfaces of the hose are in contact for a period of10min. The speed of application of loa
29、d shall be500mm per minute. Under this condition the various layers shall show no signs of separation and neither the lining nor the cover shall crack. 5.5 Pressure testing A finished length of hose shall not develop any crack or defect when subjected to a hydrostatic pressure of14bar for10min. The
30、required pressure shall bereached at a rate of1.75bar per second to3.5barper second. The hose shall not expand in circumference by more than10%of its initial circumference. While under the above pressure, the length when measured between two reference marks clear of the end fittings shall not vary b
31、y more than 3%, and the angle of rotation shall not exceed5 per metre length of hose. The pressure shall be increased at the rate of1.75bar per second to3.5bar per second until the hose bursts.
