Fire-fighting hoses - Semi-rigid delivery hoses and hose assemblies for pumps and vehicles

This European Standard specifies the requirements and test methods for semi-rigid reel hoses for use on fire-fighting vehicles and trailer pumps.  The hoses are intended for use at a maximum working pressure of 1,5 MPa for normal pressure hoses (category I) and 4,0 MPa for high pressure hoses (category II). The hoses are further subdivided into types and classes (see clause 4).
The standard applies to delivery hoses for fire-fighting purposes intended for use at a minimum temperature of        -20 °C.
NOTE 1   Hoses for use at temperatures lower than -20 °C may be supplied by agreement between the manufacturer and purchaser.
Hoses conforming to this standard should be used with fire hose couplings conforming to the relevant national standards couplings.
Requirements are also given for hose assemblies (see clause 8) where these are fitted by the hose manufacturer.
NOTE 2   All pressures are expressed in megapascals. 1 MPa = 10 bar.

According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and United Kingdom.

1 Scope This European Standard specifies the requirements and test methods for semi-rigid reel hoses for use on fire-fighting vehicles and trailer pumps.
The hoses are intended for use at a maximum working pressure of 1,5 MPa for normal pressure hoses (category I) and 4,0 MPa for high pressure hoses (category II). The hoses are further subdivided into types and classes (see clause 4). The standard applies to delivery hoses for fire-fighting purposes intended for use at a minimum ambient temperature of -20 °C. NOTE 1 Hoses for use at temperatures lower than -20 °C may be supplied by agreement between the manufacturer and purchaser. Hoses conforming to this standard should be used with fire hose couplings conforming to the relevant national standards couplings. Requirements are also given for hose assemblies (see clause 9) where these are fitted by the hose manufacturer. NOTE 2 All pressures are expressed in megapascals. 1 MPa = 10 bar. 2 Normative references This European Standard incorporates by dated or undated reference, provisions from other publications.

3 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this European Standard the following term and definition apply, together with those for working pressure, proof pressure and burst pressure given in ISO 8330. 3.1 semi-rigid hose hose which maintains its round cross-section even when unpressurized 4 Classification 4.1 General All types and classes of hose shall be so flexible that they can be rolled and kept on a drum of minimum diameter 200 mm for 12 mm inside diameter, 19 mm inside diameter and 25 mm inside diameter hose and of minimum diameter 280 mm for 33 mm inside diameter hose. Hoses shall be one of two categories distinguished by the maximum working pressure.
Each hose shall be further divided into one of three types distinguished by its construction, and then into six classes distinguished by the materials used for lining and cover. NOTE The hose may be coloured by agreement between the purchaser and the manufacturer. 4.2 Classification by types (hose construction) Type A hoses shall consist of: a) a seamless rubber or plastics lining; b) a textile spiral or braided reinforcement; c) a rubber or plastics cover. Type B hoses shall consist of: a) a seamless rubber or plastics lining; b) a circular woven textile reinforcement with a rigid spiral helix; c) an uncovered or rubber or plastics cover. Type C hoses shall consist of: a) a seamless rubber or plastics lining; b) any suitable reinforcement; c) a rubber or plastics cover. NOTE Whilst the construction of types A and C hoses may be similar or even identical, the performance requirements differ for the following: burst and proof pressure, adhesion, hot surface resistance, crush resistance.

4.4 Classification by category All hoses shall be divided into two categories dependent on the maximum working pressure in accordance with Table 2. Table 2 — Maximum working pressure, proof pressure and minimum burst pressure Pressure Category ICategory II Mpa Types A and BTypes A and BType C

EXAMPLE: A type C hose, constructed using a rubber lining and rubber cover and which has a maximum working pressure of 4,0 MPa, a proof pressure of 8,0 MPa and a minimum burst pressure of 12,0 MPa is classified as II/C/1. 5 Dimensions, tolerances and maximum mass 5.1 Inside diameter and maximum mass The inside diameter of the hose and tolerances, when measured in accordance with ISO 4671 using any suitable method stated in clause 4 of that standard, shall conform to the requirements given in Table 3. The mass per metre length of the hose shall be in accordance with Table 3.

5.2 Length and tolerances on length The total length of hose supplied shall be in accordance with the purchaser’s requirements and shall be stated in metres. Tolerance on length shall be in accordance with EN ISO 1307. 5.3 Concentricity When tested in accordance with 8.2 Method 2 of ISO 4671:1984, the variation from concentricity measured between inside and outside diameters shall not exceed the following values: Types A and C 1,5 mm Type B 0,4 mm
6 Performance requirements of finished hose 6.1 Hydrostatic requirements 6.1.1 Deformation under maximum working pressure The dimensional stability of the hose, when tested in accordance with EN ISO 1402, shall conform to the requirements given in Table 4. The length of the test piece shall be 1 m. For category I hoses the initial test pressure shall be 0,07 MPa and the final test pressure shall be 1,5 MPa. For category II hoses the initial test pressure shall be 0,07 MPa and the final test pressure shall be 4,0 MPa. The twist shall be not greater than 30°/m for types A and C. For type B the twist may be greater than 30°/m but in this case it shall only be in a direction which closes the coupling and shall be stated in the test report.

NOTE Hose with a lower maximum change in length may be agreed between the purchaser and manufacturer. 6.1.2 Deformation under proof pressure A proof pressure hold test shall be carried out on three hose lengths each of 1 m in accordance with EN ISO 1402. The proof pressure shall be as given in table 2 and on examination during the test, the test pieces shall not show any evidence of leakage, cracking, abrupt distortion or other signs of failure. 6.1.3 Minimum burst pressure !A burst pressure test shall be carried out in accordance with EN ISO 1402 on the three test pieces used for the deformation under proof pressure test.
