8、SO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical c
9、ommittee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electr
10、otechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the m
11、ember bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identi
12、fying any or all such patent rights. ISO 13950 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 138, Plastics pipes, fittings and valves for the transport of fluids, Subcommittee SC 4, Plastics pipes and fittings for the supply of gaseous fuels. This first edition of ISO 13950 cancels and replaces ISO/TR
13、13950:1997, of which it constitutes a technical revision.

28、procedures 4.1 Numerical recognition 4.1.1 Principle Methods for numerical recognition are based on systems such as bar codes and magnetic cards. Fusion parameters are recorded in code form on the data medium. At the manufacturers initiative or in response to user request, other information for fitt
29、ing identification, identification of test data, fusion cycle optimization, additional safety measures, etc. can also be encoded For a heating cycle, the system reads, processes and memorizes the information recorded on the data medium. Successive messages are displayed, or signal tones emitted, to
30、request the operator to follow a procedure, defined by the fitting manufacturer, specific to the fitting in question and including its recognition. 4.1.2 Field of application and limits Numerically controlled fusion machines capable of reading fusion parameters can be used for all electrofusion and
31、electro-heating assembly techniques. The limits of this type of fusion control unit shall be detailed by the manufacturer in terms of the maximum energy to be delivered, the fusion programmes incorporated, BS ISO 13950:20074 the fusion adaptations incorporated, and the limits of the programmable par
32、ameters. 4.1.3 Bar codes 4.1.3.1 General The system for entering data using bar codes offers a number of different user possibilities, both for the fitting supplier and the manufacturer of the fusion machine: the fitting manufacturer records on the bar code the data he considers will be needed to en
33、sure correct assembly, the amount of data depending on factors such as particular requirements or new technical developments; the control unit manufacturer is free to develop his own software and the technical design of the unit, and can choose which data to display, which commands will be available
34、, the criteria for fusion cycle emergency stop, and the display and recording of the various faults, the memorization method for fusion data, etc. 4.1.3.2 Format of bar codes The format of bar codes shall one or the other of the following. a) The 24 digit “2-in-5” interleaved type. The ratio between
35、 the width of the thicker bar and the thinner bar shall be 2,5. The bar code content is summarized in Annex A. b) The 32 digit “2-in-5” interleaved type, including traceability coding as summarized in Annex B. The ratio between the width of the thicker bar and the thinner bar shall be 2,5. 4.1.3.3 B
36、ar code structure The bar code structure shall have a predetermined overall length of either 24 digits or 32 digits. One of these digits is composed by a control character (checksum). A complementary character set can be added if further data is required. The content of each digit shall be in accord
37、ance with Annex A or Annex B, as applicable. 4.1.4 Magnetic cards 4.1.4.1 General The system of data insertion by means of magnetic cards offers different possibilities for the fitting supplier, as well as for the user and control unit manufacturer. The fitting manufacturer records on the card the n
38、umber of items of data necessary for the completion of an optimal fusion joint. In order to establish the fusion programme, he can choose between the functions described in Annex C, and adapt the data according to his wishes using nominal or real values. A fusion programme can contain up to 90 chara
39、cters. The control unit manufacturer is completely free to develop his own software as well as the technological concept of the unit. He can choose, among others, the data appearing on the display, the different commands, the emergency stop of the fusion cycle, as well as the display and recording o
40、f the different faults, the fusion data storage mode, etc., unless these are already prescribed in other standards. With respect to the quality assurance of every fusion, a record containing all or part of the fusion process data can be stored either on the magnetic card or in the control box memory
41、. When the fusion has been completed successfully and recorded on the magnetic card, the same magnetic card shall not be used again to carry out another fusion. BS ISO 13950:200754.1.4.2 Description of technique Use of a magnetic card for the transmission of data to a fusion control unit requires th
42、e following information: the card format; the magnetic tracks to be used; the recording technique; the data storage mode; the variables and the units in which they are expressed. 4.1.4.3 Physical characteristics of magnetic card The magnetic card (ID-1) specified in this International Standard is in
43、 accordance with ISO/IEC 7810, ISO/IEC 7811-2 and ISO/IEC 7811-6. The magnetic card shall not contain embossed characters. The three tracks according to ISO/IEC 7811-2 and ISO/IEC 7811-6 may be used to store data (fusion programme: tracks 1 and 2 only, and a fusion record: tracks 1, 2 and 3) on the
44、card. 4.1.4.4 Description of encoding ISO/IEC 7811-2 specifies the characteristics of the magnetic stripe. The structure of the information on tracks 1, 2 and 3 is given in Annex C. 4.1.4.5 Data storage For the data storage, the basic rules given in Annex C shall be followed. 4.2 Electromechanical r
45、ecognition 4.2.1 Principle The primary function of the electromechanical recognition method consists of converting the measured value of an identifying resistance into a fusion time. Other functions may be carried out, such as fitting identification by the implanted resistance method. 4.2.2 Field of
46、 application and limits Electromechanical recognition may be used when fittings are provided with the correct terminal housing and terminal pin configurations. 4.2.3 “Implanted resistor” connector 4.2.3.1 General A resistor is implanted in one of the terminal pins of an electrofusion fitting. The va
47、lue of this resistor is read by the control unit and the fusion time is determined automatically by the control box from stored data. 4.2.3.2 Description of system (see Annex D) A resistor is placed in the fitting terminal as shown in Figure D.1. This terminal is moulded into the fitting together wi
48、th a second plain terminal in the other fitting connector (see Figure D.2). BS ISO 13950:20076 The preferred values of the dimensions versus the voltage of the system are given in Table D.1, by way of example. The preferred values of the implanted resistor together with the equivalent fusion times a
49、re given in Table D.2, by way of example. The connector (see Figure D.3) from the control box to the fitting is used to recognize the resistor value and to supply power to fittings. The fusion control unit determines the fusion time from the recognized resistance value using stored data. 4.3 Self-regulation 4.3.1 Principle This fusion control process operates using the physico-chemical state of the material at the fitting/pipe interface. It automatically incorporates variations in fit, assembly temperature, supply voltages and the elec
