In a temperature controlled environment and at increasing time i
29、ntervals, a constant flow rate of 120 ml/min nitrogen or air is forced through 3 flexible PTFE tubes. The nitrogen or air pressure p, necessary to achieve this flow, is measured.

33、r better as specified in EN 837-1:1996). 5.4 Connecting tube, with an inside diameter of at least 4 mm. 5.5 PTFE tube, conforming to the following: capable of sustaining at least 10 bar pressure. the total thickness of the flattened PTFE tube shall be between 0,16 mm and 0,24 mm, measured in the mid
34、dle of the sample and carried out in two positions perpendicular to each other. the total width of the flattened tube shall be between 6 mm and 10 mm. NOTE The PTFE tube used for this test is a blown-up tube, normally applied as a shrinkage tube. The original diameter and wall thickness after shrink
35、age are normally specified. The attention is drawn that the blown-up dimensions are normally not specified. Care should be taken that the wall thickness and the diameter of the tube as received are verified. The given tolerances should be seen as a guide for the supplier. 5.6 Flow meter, with a capa
36、city of 200 ml/min and a tolerance of 5 ml/min 5.7 Means for storage of the test assembly, capable of fixing and storing the test assembly in such a way that no additional movements in the joint can occur. It shall be capable of fixing the PTFE tubes in such a way that during connecting or disconnec
37、ting to the pressure gauge and flow meter, no movement of the PTFE tube in the sealing area can occur. 5.8 Lubricant, an aerosol of silicon (Polydimethylsiloxanoil) with gas propellant (Propane/Butane). 6 Test pieces 6.1 General Each test piece shall consist of a complete joint, together with its el
38、astomeric seal and PTFE tube(s). Unless otherwise specified in the referring standard, the number of PTFE tubes shall be three, marked as a, b and c, equally spaced around the spigot. 6.2 Assembly Prior to assembly, the test pieces shall be conditioned at the test temperature for at least 24 h. Clea
39、n the rubber sealing ring, the socket and the spigot. Prepare the PTFE tube by pressing it together several times until permanently flattened and place it along the smooth surface of the spigot or socket. 11 bar = 105N/m2EN 14741:2006 (E) 7 Lubricate the smooth wall in the joint (spigot or socket),
40、the seal and PTFE tube(s). The lubricant as defined in 5.8 shall be used. Use sufficient lubricant to ensure that the PTFE shrinkage tube(s) and seal can be assembled without damage, and the seal can equalise its position within the groove circumference. Assemble the socket and spigot, including the
41、 seal, in accordance with the manufacturers instructions and the following requirements. a) The joint shall be assembled in such a way that the PTFE tubes are mounted between the spigot or socket and the seal (see Figure 1); precaution shall be taken to avoid squeezing of the PTFE tube outside the s
42、ealing area. It is permitted to mill a grove, insert thin plastics strips along the tube, drill holes in the spigot or socket or any other method to give room for sufficient flow through the tube outside the sealing area. The method selected shall not significantly influence the creep behaviour of t
43、he joint in the sealing housing area. b) Make sure that the PTFE tube can move freely in the axial direction and that the flattened section of the PTFE tube is located under the sealing ring and not distorted, when the joint is made. 6.3 Leaktightness of the test system Make sure the pressurised sid
44、e of the test equipment is leaktight after installation. Identify any leakage by soap solution. If necessary, reassemble the leaking joints. Avoid flow through the sealing zone during this operation. 7 Test procedure 7.1 General The testing shall start between half an hour and 8 h after assembly and
45、 leaktightness testing in accordance with Clause 6. For each of the installed PTFE tubes, carry out the procedure according to 7.2 with the test pieces kept in the temperature controlled environment at (23 2) C. Measure and record the sealing pressure, p in bar, at times of 24 h, 168 h, 336 h, 504 h
46、, 600 h, 696 h, 862 h, 1008 h, 1392 h and 2000 h. Where it is not possible to read the pressure at the appropriate time between 500 h and 2000 h, it is permitted to deviate by up to 48 h, provided the actual measurement time is used in preparing the plots described in Clause 8. 7.2 Procedure for det
47、ermining the pressure 7.2.1 Measure the leakage pressure, p0, in each of the 3 tubes individually, using the following procedure. a) Using the procedure described in 7.2.2 a) steadily increase pressure until a flow of 120 ml/min through the PTFE tube occurs; b) Measure and record this initial leakag
48、e pressure p0; c) Reduce pressure to zero. 7.2.2 At each time interval as specified in 7.1, achieve a flow of 120 ml/min and measure and record the nitrogen (or air) pressure ptin bar, using the following procedure for each of the 3 tubes individually. EN 14741:2006 (E) 8 a) Increase pressure in inc
49、rements of 0,5 bar until the level is 0,5 bar below p0or the previous measurement. Then continue and increase the pressure gradually and slowly. Occasionally allow time to stabilise the pressure and flow. Continue this process until the flow rate has been (120 5) ml/min for 60 s at the same pressure. Record the pressure as ptain bar. In the case of pressure reaching 10 bar stop pressurising and record the pressure as 10 bar. If the pressure in all three tubes is recorded as 10 bar a
