This European Standard takes into account the requirements of EN 476. According to the CEN-CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of t

DIN EN 16397-1:2015-01 EN 16397-1:2014 (E) 4 1 Scope This European Standard specifies the performance requirements for flexible couplings and adaptors and bushes for use with pipe
20、s and fittings in drain and sewer systems, usually operated under gravity and periodic hydraulic surcharge, both above and below ground inside or outside buildings and intended to connect pipes for: repair of damaged pipelines; connecting pipes of different materials and/or diameters; jointing short
21、/cut lengths of pipe; jointing specific pipe systems; jointing post-inserted preformed junctions. Typically a coupling consists of a moulded or extruded flexible sleeve with two clamping bands with or without a shear band. The clamping bands enable the sleeve to form a seal with the pipes to be join
22、ted. The shear band gives resistance to shear forces. Connections may be made between pipes which cannot be satisfactorily jointed by a coupling alone, of dissimilar sizes or material, by using an appropriate bush or bushes with the coupling or by using an appropriate adaptor. 2 Normative references

When fitted according to the manufacturers instructions, flexible couplings and adapto
36、rs and bushes shall not damage or distort the pipes to which they are connected. Flexible couplings and adaptors and bushes shall be free from such defects as would impair their function when in service. 5.2 Materials All materials used in flexible couplings and adaptors and bushes shall comply with
37、 the specific material characteristics in accordance with EN 16397-2. 5.3 Dimensional tolerances NOTE The requirements on tolerances and dimensions are specified in EN 16397-2. 5.4 Tightness of joint assemblies 5.4.1 General Joint assemblies using flexible couplings and adaptors and bushes shall mee
38、t the requirements of 5.4.2, 5.4.3, 5.4.4 and 5.4.5. Couplings and adaptors shall be tested in assemblies comprising both rigid pipes, both flexible pipes and a combination of rigid pipes with flexible pipes. When bushes are supplied as part of the product range a minimum of one test per test config
39、uration shall include at least one bush/coupling combination. In addition when subjected to the test specified in the material specific part of this European Standard (EN 16397-2), the maximum sized coupling assembled with the thickest bush supplied and the appropriate pipes from each designated siz
40、e group and test mode shall be tested at the recommended assembly torque. DIN EN 16397-1:2015-01 EN 16397-1:2014 (E) 9 5.4.2 Test pressures Joint assemblies using couplings incorporating a shear band shall meet the requirements of 5.4.3 and 5.4.4, when tested at an internal pressure of 100 kPa (1,0
41、bar) in accordance with 6.1.2. Joint assemblies using couplings or adaptors without a shear band shall meet the requirements of 5.4.3 and 5.4.4, when tested at an internal pressure of 50 kPa (0,5 bar) in accordance with 6.1.2. If products covered by this standard are required to withstand continuous
42、 working under low pressure (i.e. continuous surcharge flow is expected, e.g. for water transfer pipelines), the test pressure shall be higher than specified above for either type of coupling or adaptor. The higher test pressure should be agreed between manufacturer and specifier. Joint assemblies u
43、sing couplings incorporating a shear band shall meet the requirements of 5.4.3 and 5.4.4 when tested with a vacuum pressure of -0,25 bar (0,75 bar absolute) when tested in accordance with 6.1.3. A component of a joint assembly shall not be used in more than one test. 5.4.3 Angular deflection One pip
44、e in a joint assembly shall be deflected by the method described in 6.1.4 by the amount specified in Table 1 for its relevant nominal size and when so deflected shall withstand the test pressures specified in 5.4.2 for 5 min without visible leakage or more than 10 % change in pressure after the pres
45、sure has stabilised.

This should be either 6.1.5.1, 6.1.5.3 and 6.1.5.4 or 6.1.5.2, 6.1.5.3 and 6.1.5.4. 5.4.4.2 Join
47、t assemblies connecting rigid pipes For joint assemblies connecting pipelines of materials which do not undergo significant diametral deformation under shear test load (e. g. vitrified clay, concrete, cast-iron, ductile iron, steel and fibre-cement) an external load FZ(see Formula 1) shall be applie
48、d to one pipe to produce a minimum shear load at the joint assembly of 25 N per millimetre of nominal size. The joint assembly shall withstand the test pressures specified in 5.4.2 for 15 min without visible leakage or more than 10 % change in pressure after the pressure has stabilised. The clamping
49、 bands, shear bands, their adjustors and any means of attaching adjustors shall not exhibit any obvious signs of physical distress or degradation.
