11、published by the European Committee for Standardization (CEN). It is incorporated into BS 2782 Methods of testing plastics : Part 12 : Reinforced plastics pipes, fittings and valves, as Methods 1223 A and B : 1997, for association with related test methods for plastics materials and plastics piping
12、components, where Method 1223A corresponds to Method A of EN 1229 (using internal water pressure) and Method 1223B corresponds to Method B of EN 1229 (using internal air pressure). This standard has been prepared for reference by other standards under preparation by CEN for specification of reinforc
13、ed plastics piping systems and components. It has been implemented to enable experience of the methods to be gained and for use for other fresh applications. It is also for use for the revision or amendment of other national standards as practicable, but it should not be presumed to apply to any exi
14、sting standard or specification which contains or makes reference to a different test method until that standard/specification has been amended or revised to make reference to this method and adjust any requirements as appropriate. No existing British Standard is superseded by this Method. This docu
15、ment comprises a front cover, an inside front cover, pages i and ii, pages 1 to 4 and a back cover. Warning note. This British Standard, which is identical with EN 1229 : 1996, does not necessarily detail all the precautions necessary to meet the requirements of the Health and Safety at Work etc. Ac

24、eword This European Standard has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 155, Plastics piping systems and ducting systems, the secretariat of which is held by NNI. This standard is based on the draft International Standard ISO/DIS 7511 Pipes and fittings of glass reinforced thermosetting plastic
25、s (GRP) Determination of leaktightness Test method, prepared by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). It is a modification of ISO/DIS 7511 for reasons of applicability to other test conditions and alignment with texts of other standards on test methods. The modifications are: spe
26、cifications for detection of water leakage are deleted; test parameters (pressure, time, temperature) are not specified; material-dependent or performance requirements are not given; editorial changes have been introduced. The material-dependent test parameters and/or performance requirements are in
27、corporated in the referring standard. This standard is one of a series of standards on test methods which support System Standards for plastics piping systems and ducting systems. This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or b
28、y endorsement, at the latest by December 1996, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by December 1996. According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austr
29、ia, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom.Page 3 EN 1229 : 1996 BSI 1997 1 Scope This standard specifies two test methods, designated method A and method B, for rapid t
30、esting of the leaktightness of glass-reinforced thermosetting plastics (GRP) pipes and fittings under short-term internal pressure. Method A is a hydraulic test applicable to a pipe under uniaxial stress. Method B is a pneumatic test applicable to pipes and fittings. For pipes it is intended to be c
31、omplementary to method A, not an alternative test. NOTE. Test methods for the leaktightness of joints or for the pipes resistance to long-term hydrostatic pressure are covered by other standards. 2 Definition For the purposes of this standard, the following definition applies: leakage The transmissi
32、on of water or air through the wall of the test piece. 3 Method A 3.1 Principle A test piece in air is subjected to an internal water pressure. The test piece is monitored for evidence of leakage through the wall of the test piece, e.g. signs of weeping or transfer of an indicator, within a specifie
33、d time. NOTE. It is assumed that the following test parameters are set by the standard making reference to this standard: a) the test pressure and time taken to achieve it (see 3.2.1 and 3.4.2); b) the number of test pieces to be used (see 3.3); c) the period for which pressure is applied (see 3.4.3
34、). 3.2 Apparatus 3.2.1 Pressurizing system, capable of maintaining for the duration of the test a specified hydraulic pressure measured at the top of the test piece to an accuracy within22 % and +5 %. The water used to pressurize the test piece may contain an indicator, such as a dye, to assist dete
35、ction of any transfer through the wall of the test piece. 3.2.2 Pressure measuring device, of sufficient accuracy to enable conformity to 3.2.1. 3.2.3 End-sealing devices, such as end caps, internal stoppers or inflatable bags depending on the diameter of the test piece. Means shall be provided to p
36、revent movement of the sealing device under pressure. Such devices shall not transmit end thrust to the test piece. 3.2.4 Test piece support, if necessary, to minimize deformation of the test piece due to its mass and its contents. This support shall not constrain the test piece circumferentially or
37、 longitudinally. 3.3 Test pieces 3.3.1 The test piece(s) shall comprise a pipe or a piece taken from a pipe, as specified in the referring standard. 3.3.2 The number of test pieces shall be as specified in the referring standard. 3.4 Procedure WARNING: Attention is drawn to dangers associated with p
38、ressure and the need to apply all necessary precautions to prevent injury to the personnel concerned. 3.4.1 Attach the end-sealing devices to the test piece and fill the test piece with water, expelling all air. Attach the test piece to the pressurizing system, being sure to avoid entrapment of air.
39、 3.4.2 Increase the hydrostatic pressure continuously, so that the specified test pressure is reached in the time specified in the referring standard. 3.4.3 Maintain the test pressure for the time specified in the referring standard or until leakage is observed, whichever occurs first. Record any ev
40、idence of leakage through the wall of the test piece (see 3.1 and 3.2.1) and the period after which it was observed. 3.5 Test report The test report shall include the following information: a) a reference to this standard and the referring standard; b) the full identification of the pipe tested; c)
41、the number of test pieces; d) the method of test used, i.e. method A; e) the test pressure, in bars; f) the duration of the test or time to failure, in minutes; g) the occurrence or absence of leakage; h) any factors which may have affected the results, such as any incidents or any operating details
42、 not specified in this standard; i) the date of test.Page 4 EN 1229 : 1996 BSI 1997 4 Method B 4.1 Principle A test piece in either air or water is subjected to an internal air pressure. The test piece is monitored for evidence of leakage within a specified time. NOTE. It is assumed that the followi
43、ng test parameters are set by the standard making reference to this standard: a) the test pressure and time taken to achieve it (see 4.2.1 and 4.4.2); b) the number of test pieces to be used (see 4.3); c) the period for which pressure is applied (see 4.4.3). 4.2 Apparatus 4.2.1 Pressurizing system,
44、capable of applying and maintaining to an accuracy of within 2 % the internal air pressure specified in the referring standard and fitted with an automatic pressure-limiting device. 4.2.2 Pressure measuring device, of sufficient accuracy to enable conformity to 4.2.1. 4.2.3 End-sealing devices, such
45、 as end caps, internal stoppers or inflatable bags depending on the diameter of the test piece. Means shall be provided to prevent movement of the sealing device under pressure. Such devices shall not transmit end thrust to the test piece. 4.3 Test pieces 4.3.1 The test pieces shall comprise either
46、of the following as specified in the referring standard: a) a pipe; b) a piece taken from a pipe; c) a fitting. 4.3.2 The number of test pieces shall be as specified in the referring standard. 4.4 Procedure WARNING: Attention is drawn to dangers associated with pneumatic pressure and the need to app
47、ly all necessary precautions to prevent injury to the personnel concerned. For reasons of safety it is recommended that the test pressure does not exceed 1 bar unless otherwise specified by the referring standard. 4.4.1 Assemble the end-sealing devices (see 4.2.3)t o the test piece ensuring that no
48、end thrust is transmitted. Connect the test piece to the pressurizing system through one of the end-sealing devices. Either paint the outer surface of the test piece with a solution of soap or a similar agent, if the test is performed in air, or immerse the test piece completely in water. 4.4.2 Pres
49、surize the test piece to the specified test pressure (see 4.1). 4.4.3 Maintain the test pressure for the time specified (see 4.1) or until leakage is observed, whichever occurs first. Inspect for and record any bubbling caused by air escaping through the wall of the test piece. 4.5 Test report The test report shall include the following information: a) a reference to this standard and the referring standard; b) the full identification of the pipe or fitting tested; c) the number of test pieces; d) the metho
