This European Standard shall be given the
13、 status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by March 2016, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by March 2016. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the su
14、bject of patent rights. CEN and/or CENELEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. EN 16712 consists of the following parts, under the general title “Portable equipment for projecting extinguishing agents supplied by fire fighting pumps Portable foam equipment”:
15、Part 1: Inductors PN 16; Part 2: Pick-up tubes; Part 3: Low and medium expansion hand-held foam branchpipes PN 16; Part 4: High expansion foam generators PN 16.

BS EN 16712-2:2015EN 16712-2:2015 (E) 4 1 Scope 1.1 This European Standard specifies performance requirements and test methods for pick-up tubes. This European Standard applies to pick-up tubes from DN 20 to DN 50 which are us
18、ed for the suction of foam concentrate or additives and defines their requirements and test procedures. Pick-up tubes are especially used with inductors in accordance with EN 16712-1. NOTE Pick-up tubes can also be used for the suction of other substances (e.g. absorbents). 1.2 This European Standar
19、d is not applicable to pick-up tubes which have been manufactured before its date of publication as European Standard. 2 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply. 2.1 pick-up tube device through which foam concentrate, additives or other subs
20、tances are transferred from a reservoir to an inductor or other proportioning device 3 Designation The designation of pick-up tubes in compliance with EN 16712-2 comprises name of the equipment, reference to EN 16712-2, nominal diameter, total length. EXAMPLE A pick-up tube with a nominal diameter o
21、f 38 mm and a total length of 1 500 mm is designated as follows: Pick-up tube EN 167122 DN 38 1 500 4 Requirements 4.1 Components, dimensions and mass The pick-up tube consists of a semi-rigid transparent tube connectable at one end to the foam concentrate inlet of an inductor or proportioning devic
22、e (see Figure 1). At the other end, it should remain free or be equipped with a riser metallic or plastic pipe, or a strainer, with or without foot valve, or BS EN 16712-2:2015EN 16712-2:2015 (E) 5 a coupling, or any combinations of the above elements. It is recommended that the length of the flexib
23、le section (semi rigid translucent tube) and of the rigid section (riser pipe) be specified by the user/purchaser to meet their specific requirements. NOTE Riser pipes have proved to be more advantageous than a free tube end because their mass helps avoid the pick-up tube slipping out of the foam co
24、ncentrate or additive container. The above elements should take into account the total length indicated in Table 2 and shall not reduce the performance of the inductor or proportioning device, e.g. by a smooth internal surface of the semi rigid tube. The nominal diameters shall be in accordance with
25、 Table 1. Table 1 Nominal diameters Nominal flow rate of proportioning or inducting device DN 800 l/min 20 mm 800 l/min to 2 000 l/min 25 mm to 38 mm 2 000 l/min 38 mm Dimensions and mass of pick-up tubes DN 20 shall be in accordance with Table 2 and Figure 1. For pick-up tubes larger than DN 20 dim
26、ensions and mass shall be agreed between the manufacturer and the user.

The material of the tube shall be translucent in order to view the presence of the foam concentrate or additive inside the semi rigid tube a
30、nd/or flow disturbances. Verification Visual inspection and supplier material certificate. The resistance to foam concentrate or additive shall be agreed between the supplier and the user. The pick-up tube should be UV-resistant. Verification Material certificates. 4.3 Connection to the inductor/pro
31、portioning device The wall thickness shall be selected in such a way that the tube is permanently fixed to the coupling. A tube clamp or other convenient binding mechanism is permitted. A suitable permanent adhesive may be used. BS EN 16712-2:2015EN 16712-2:2015 (E) 8 Verification The tube shall be
32、attached to the connector in such a way that its position on the connector does not change. On the tube heated up to a temperature of (55 3) C, a traction force of (100 5) N is applied for 15 s to the coupling-free end of the tube. After 15 s, check by visual inspection that the position of the tube
33、 on the connector has not moved. 4.4 Tightness During a one-minute test, the pressure shall not change. Verification At room temperature (23 5) C, a pressure of (- 0,8 0,1) bar shall be maintained inside the tube for 15 s. Check that the pressure does not deviate more than 0,1 bar. 4.5 Cross section
34、 During the test below, the outer diameter of the semi rigid tube shall not be more than 20 % smaller at any point, when compared to the original outer diameter. Verification The diameter of the semi rigid tube shall be measured after 15 s at a temperature of 55 C and a pressure of - 0,8 bar. 4.6 Co
35、llapsing During the test below, the semi rigid tube shall not collapse. Verification The semi rigid tube, cooled down to a temperature of (-15 2) C for 30 min, is bent by 180 with a bending inside diameter of DN x 10. Check by visual inspection that the semi rigid tube does not collapse. BS EN 16712
