12、tional 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 committee has be

21、he supply of gaseous fuels.Requirements and test methods for material and components, other than pipes, are specified in ISO 4437-1, ISO 4437-3, and ISO 4437-4.Characteristics for fitness for purpose of the system are covered in ISO 4437-5.Recommended practice for installation is given in ISO/TS 108

23、ethylene (PE) for piping systems in the field of the supply of gaseous fuels.It also specifies the test parameters for the test methods referred to in this International Standard.In conjunction with part of ISO 4437-1, ISO 4437-3, ISO 4437-4, and ISO 4437-5, it is applicable to PE pipes, fittings an
24、d valves, their joints, and joints with components of PE and other materials intended to be used under the following conditions:a) the maximum operating pressure (MOP) is based on the design stress determined from the compound minimum required strength (MRS) divided by the C factor, and taking into
25、account rapid crack propagation (RCP) requirements;b) a temperature of 20 C as reference temperature for the design basis.NOTE 1 For other operating temperatures, guidance is given in ISO 4437-5:2014.For above ground application of pipes conforming to this International Standard, the pipes should be
26、 protected by a casing pipe, taking into account any relevant national regulations and installation practices or codes.This part of ISO 4437 covers three types of pipes: PE pipes (outside diameter dn) including any identification stripes; PE pipes with co-extruded layers on either or both the outsid
27、e and/or inside of the pipe (total outside diameter dn) as specified in Annex A, where all PE layers have the same MRS rating; PE pipes (outside diameter dn) with a peelable and contiguous thermoplastics additional layer on the outside (coated pipe) as specified in Annex B.NOTE 2 It is the responsib
28、ility of the purchaser or specifier to make the appropriate selections from these aspects, taking into account their particular requirements and any relevant national regulations and installation practices or codes.2 Normative referencesThe following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively r
