19、andard is considered suitable for use with conformity assessment within its stated scope.This Standard was prepared by the ASME/CSA Joint Harmonization Task Group on Plumbing Fixtures, under the jurisdiction of the ASME Standards Committee on Plumbing Materials and Equipment and the CSA Technical Co
20、mmittee on Plumbing Fixtures. The CSA Technical Committee operates under the jurisdiction of the CSA Strategic Steering Committee on Water Management Products, Materials, and Systems. This Standard has been formally approved by the ASME Standards Committee and the CSA Technical Committee. This Stand
21、ard was approved as an American National Standard by the American National Standards Institute on September 1, 2011.October 2011ASME Notes:(1) This standard was developed under procedures accredited as meeting the criteria for American National Standards and it is an American National Standard. The
22、Standards Committee that approved the code or standard was balanced to assure that individuals from competent and concerned interests have had an opportunity to participate. The proposed Standard was made available for public review and comment that provides an opportunity for additional public inpu
23、t from industry, academia, regulatory agencies, and the public-at-large.(2) ASME does not “approve,” “rate,” or “endorse” any item, construction, proprietary device, or activity.(3) ASME does not take any position with respect to the validity of any patent rights asserted in connection with any item
24、s mentioned in this document, and does not undertake to insure anyone utilizing a standard against liability for infringement of any applicable letters patent, nor assume any such liability. Users of a standard are expressly advised that determination of the validity of any such patent rights, and t
25、he risk of infringement of such rights, is entirely their own responsibility.(4) Participation by federal agency representative(s) or person(s) affiliated with industry is not to be interpreted as government or industry endorsement of this standard.(5) ASME accepts responsibility for only those inte
26、rpretations of this document issued in accordance with the established ASME procedures and policies, which precludes the issuance of interpretations by individuals.(6) ASME issues written replies to inquiries concerning interpretation of technical aspects of this Standard. All inquiries regarding th
27、is Standard, including requests for interpretations, should be addressed to:Secretary, A112 Standards CommitteeThe American Society of Mechanical EngineersThree Park AvenueNew York, NY 10016-5990A request for interpretation should be clear and unambiguous. The request shouldcite the applicable editi
28、on of the Standard for which the interpretation is being requested.phrase the question as a request for an interpretation of a specific requirement suitable for general understanding and use, not as a request for an approval of a proprietary design or situation. The inquirer may also include any pla
29、ns or drawings, which are necessary to explain the question; however, they should not contain proprietary names or information.ASME procedures provide for reconsideration of any interpretation when or if additional information that might affect an interpretation is available. Further, persons aggrie
30、ved by an interpretation may appeal to the cognizant ASME Committee.Interpretations are published on the ASME Web site under the Committee Pages at http:/cstools.asme.org/ as they are issued.xiii(Replaces p. xiii, October 2011) The American Society of Mechanical EngineersASME A112.19.5-2011/CSA B45.
31、15-11 Canadian Standards AssociationMay 2012CSA Notes:(1) Use of the singular does not exclude the plural (and vice versa) when the sense allows.(2) Although the intended primary application of this Standard is stated in its Scope, it is important to note that it remains the responsibility of the us
32、ers of the Standard to judge its suitability for their particular purpose.(3) This publication was developed by consensus, which is defined by CSA Policy governing standardization Code of good practice for standardization as “substantial agreement. Consensus implies much more than a simple majority,
33、 but not necessarily unanimity”. It is consistent with this definition that a member may be included in the Technical Committee list and yet not be in full agreement with all clauses of this publication.(4) To submit a request for interpretation of CSA Standards, please send the following informatio
34、n to inquiriescsa.ca and include “Request for interpretation” in the subject line:(a) define the problem, making reference to the specific clause, and, where appropriate, include an illustrative sketch;(b) provide an explanation of circumstances surrounding the actual field condition; and(c) where p
35、ossible, phrase the request in such a way that a specific “yes” or “no” answer will address the issue.Committee interpretations are processed in accordance with the CSA Directives and guidelines governing standardization and are published in CSAs periodical Info Update, which is available on the CSA
36、 website at http:/standardsactivities.csa.ca.(5) CSA Standards are subject to periodic review, and suggestions for their improvement will be referred to the appropriate committee. To submit a proposal for change to CSA Standards, please send the following information to inquiriescsa.ca and include “
37、Proposal for change” in the subject line:(a) Standard designation (number);(b) relevant clause, table, and/or figure number;(c) wording of the proposed change; and(d) rationale for the change.(6) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this Standard may be the subject of p
38、atent rights. CSA is not to be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Users of this Standard are expressly advised that determination of the validity of any such patent rights is entirely their own responsibility.(Replaces p. xiv, October 2011)xiv The American Society of Mec

In this Standard, the inch/pound units are shown in parentheses.The values stated in each measure
43、ment system are equivalent in application; however, each system is to be used independently. Combining values from the two measurement systems can result in non-conformance with this Standard.All references to gallons are to U.S. gallons.For information on the conversion criteria used in this Standa
