Plastics piping systems for hot and cold water installations - Crosslinked polyethylene (PE-X) - Part 2: Pipes (ISO 15875-2:2003)
ISO 15875-2:2003 specifies the characteristics of pipes made from crosslinked polyethylene (PE-X) for piping systems intended to be used for hot and cold water installations, within buildings, for the conveyance of water which may or may not be intended for human consumption (domestic systems) or for heating systems, under operating pressures and temperatures appropriate to the class of application.
It covers a range of service conditions (application classes), design pressures and pipe dimension classes. It does not apply if the values of the design temperature, maximum design temperature and malfunction temperature are in excess of those given in ISO 15875-1.
It also specifies the test parameters for the test methods referred to in the standard.
In conjunction with the other parts of ISO 15875, it is applicable to PE-X pipes and their joints, including joints with other PE-X components and components made of other plastics and non-plastics materials intended to be used for hot and cold water installations.
It is applicable to pipes with or without (a) barrier layer(s).
Kunststoff-Rohrleitungssysteme für die Warm- und Kaltwasserinstallation - Verneztes Polyethylen (PE-X) - Teil 2: Rohre (ISO 15875-2:2003)
Dieser Teil der EN (155wi023) legt die Anforderungen an Rohre aus vernetztem Polyethylen (PE-X) für die Verlegung von Warm- und Kaltwasserleitungen innerhalb und im Umfeld von Gebäuden (Hausinstallations- und Heizungssyteme) fest, für den Transport von Wasser, welches entweder für den menschlichen Gebrauch bestimmt ist oder nicht, unter Betriebsdrücken und Temperaturen entsprechend der Anwendungsklasse. Hier werden auch die Prüfparameter für die Prüfverfahren festgelegt, auf die in dieser Norm verwiesen wird.
Systèmes de canalisations en plastique pour les installations d'eau chaude et froide - Polyéthylène réticulé (PE-X) - Partie 2: Tubes (ISO 15875-2:2003)
La présente partie de l'ISO 15875-2:2003 spécifie les caractéristiques des tubes en polyéthylène réticulé (PE-X) pour les systèmes de canalisations destinés aux installations d'eau chaude et froide à l'intérieur des bâtiments ainsi qu'au transport de l'eau, destinée ou non à la consommation humaine (systèmes domestiques) et aux installations de chauffage, à des pressions et des températures de service correspondant à la classe d'application.
Elle couvre une gamme de conditions de service (classes d'application), de pressions de service et de classes de dimension du tube. Elle ne s'applique pas lorsque les valeurs de température de service, de température maximale de service et de température de dysfonctionnement dépassent celles données dans l'ISO 15875-1.
Elle spécifie aussi les paramètres d'essai pour les méthodes d'essai auxquelles il est fait référence dans ce document.
Conjointement avec les autres parties de l'ISO 15875, elle s'applique aux tubes en PE-X, aux raccords, à leurs assemblages et aux assemblages avec des composants faits en d'autres matériaux, plastiques ou non plastiques, pouvant être utilisés avec des installations d'eau chaude et froide.
La présente norme s'applique aux tubes avec ou sans couche(s) barrière.
