11、ical Committee CENTTC 155 “Plastics piping systems and ducting systems“ the secretariat of which is held by NNI. This standard is based on annex B (informative) of the Intemational Standards IS0 443711988 “Buried polyethylene (PE) pipes for the supply of gaseous fuels - Metric series - Specification
12、“, published by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). The material-dependent parameters and/or performance requirements are incorporated in the System Standard) concerned. This standard is one of a series of standards on test methods which support System Standards for plastics pi
13、ping systems and ducting systems. This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by February 1998, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by February 1998. According to
14、the CENKENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Spain,

Page 3 EN 12106: 1997 1 Scope This standard specifies a method for determining the resistance to intemal pressure of polyethylene (PE) pipes after being subjected to a squeeze-off procedure. 2 Normative reference This standard incorporates by dated or unda
16、ted reference, provisions from other publications. These normative references are cited at the appropriate places in the text and the publications are listed hereafter. For dated references, subsequent amendments to, or revisions of, any of these publications apply to this standard only when incorpo
17、rated in it by amendment or revision. For undated references the latest edition of the publication referred to applies. EN 921:1994 Plastics piping systems - Thermoplastics pipes - Determination of resistance to internal pressure ar constant temperature 3 Principle A polyethylene (PE) pipe, conditio
18、ned to O “C, is squeezed between two parallel circular- section bars located at right angles to the pipe centreline, at a position midway between the pipe ends. The squeeze is subsequently released after an appropriate time period. The pipe is then subjected to a hydrostatic strength test at 80 OC.
19、NOTE 1: In certain countries the technique of squeeze-off is used to restrict the flow of fluid in PE piping systems whilst effecting maintenance and repair operations. The test described herein may be used to assess the effect of squeeze-off on the strength of pipes. NOTE 2: It is assumed that the
20、following test parameters are set by the standard making reference to this standard: a) the diameter and series of the pipe to be tested (see 5.1); b) the number of test pieces (see 5.2); c) the parameters for the hydrostatic strength test at 80 “C (see 6.5). 4 Apparatus 4.1 Squeezeoff equipment, co
21、mprising a compressive loading device with a combination of a fixed bar and a moveable bar contained within a framework designed to withstand the forces generated by the squeeze-off action. Each bar shall have a circular cross section having sufficient rigidity to ensure a uniform separation between
22、 and along the bars in the course of squeeze-off. Each bar shall have the same diameter which shall be not less than the applicable minimum value given in table 1. The moveable bar may be hydraulically or mechanically operated to achieve the applicable level of squeeze-off given in table 1. Page 4 E

Immediately after that hold time has elapsed, release the squeeze progressively so that the squeeze applied by the bars
24、is fully released within 1 min. 6.5 Prepare the test piece for determination of hydrostatic strength at 80 “C in accordance with EN 921 :I 994 and conduct that test using the pressure, testing time and failure crteria as specified in the referring standard see c) of note 2 to clause 31. 6.6 After te
