Scope

This standard specifies a method for determining the flow rate/pressure drop relationship of components for plastics piping when tested using air at 25 mbar. It is applicable to mechanical fittings, valves, tapping tees and other ancillaries intended to be used in polyethylene (PE) piping systems for supply of gaseous fuels. The data obtained may be used to calculate the flow rate of such gases for a specified pressure drop. note:1)1 bar = 10 N/m.
