In conjunction with FprEN 17176-1 and FprEN 17176-5, it is applicable to oriented PVC-O pipes with or without integral socket intended to be used for the following:
a) water mains and services lines;
b) conveyance of water for both outside and inside buildings;
c) drainage, sewerage and treated waste water under pressure;
d) irrigation under pressure.
It is applicable to piping systems intended for the supply of water with a maximum allowable operating pressure (PFA) up to and including 25 bar . The piping system according to this document is intended for the conveyance of cold water up to and including 45 °C and especially in those applications where special performance requirements are needed, such as impact loads and pressure fluctuations.
For temperatures between 25 °C and 45 °C, Figure C.1 of this document applies.
This part of FprEN 17176 specifies a range of pipe sizes and pressure classes and gives a requirement and recommendations concerning colours.

Overview
EN 17176-2:2019/prA1 is a CEN standard specifying solid‑wall oriented unplasticized poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC‑O) pipes for plastics piping systems used in water supply, buried and above‑ground drainage, sewerage, treated wastewater and irrigation under pressure. It applies to PVC‑O pipes (with or without integral sockets) intended for water mains, service lines, internal and external building supply, pressure drainage/sewerage and irrigation, for maximum allowable operating pressures (PFA) up to and including 25 bar and cold‑water conveyance up to 45 °C.
This amendment (prA1) updates technical details including orientation factor/MRS notation, nominal length tolerances, Annex A material classification, Annex E test method clarifications and adds an Annex E test report requirement.
Key topics and technical requirements
- Material and scope: Solid‑wall PVC‑O pipes intended for pressure conveyance of cold water and treated waste water; applications protected from direct sunlight for above‑ground use.
- Pressure and temperature limits: PFA ≤ 25 bar; intended for cold water up to 45 °C (Figure C.1 applies for 25–45 °C).
- MRS / orientation factors: Revised MRS classes (MRS31.5, 35.5, 40.0, 45.0, 50.0) and minimum orientation factors (axial and circumferential) are specified for pipe classification.
- Pipe lengths and tolerances: Recommended supply lengths include 3, 5, 6, 10 or 12 m; tolerance on nominal pipe length clarified (manufacturer declared lengths with tolerance +0.05 m).
- Marking and traceability: Minimum marking requirements include standard number, manufacturer, material type (PVC‑O), MRS class and design coefficient, nominal dimensions, PN, production period and site/line identification.
- Test parameters and methods: References and requirements for hydrostatic strength (EN ISO 1167‑1/2), material classification (EN ISO 9080, EN ISO 12162), orientation tests (Annex E, method similar to EN ISO 2505), Vicat/DSC and chemical resistance tests (EN ISO 2507, ISO 18373‑1, EN ISO 9852, EN ISO 6259).
- Annex updates: Annex A defines pipe material classification procedures; Annex E (orientation factor) now includes an explicit E.5 Test report content list to avoid misinterpretation.
Applications and users
Who benefits from EN 17176‑2:
- Pipe manufacturers and extrusion plants (product specification, factory production control)
- Water utilities, municipal engineers and pipeline specifiers (selection and procurement)
- Irrigation system designers and agricultural contractors
- Installation contractors and building services engineers
- Test laboratories and conformity assessors
The standard helps ensure safe, durable PVC‑O pressure piping suitable for mains, services, pressure drainage and irrigation where higher impact resistance and pressure fluctuation performance are required.

European foreword
This document (EN 17176-2:2019/prA1:2021) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 155
“Plastics piping systems and ducting systems”, the secretariat of which is held by NEN.
This document is currently submitted to the CEN Enquiry.
The main amendments to EN 17176-2:2019 are as follows:
— Correct MRS classification;
— Amend text nominal length (7.2) and tolerance Table 2;
— Revision Annex A Addition alternative interpretation reference lines (A.2.2 and A.2.3);
— Including clause test method in Annex E;
— Mistakes corrected in Table E and Annex E.
The amendment of EN 17176-2 is proposed to add clause E.5 Test report in Annex E,
to avoid miss interpretation and confusion in the market regarding reporting and use of the test results.
Also mistakes regarding MRS classification and ambiguities at different places, including Annex A, in the
document and mistakes identified in Table 8 and Annex E are amended. Table 2 Tolerance on length is
also amended to align with current practise.
1 Modifications to 5.4, "Orientation factor"
In Table 1, first row, replace MRS values "315 /355 /400 / 450 / 500" with "31,5 /35,5 /40,0 / 45,0 /
50,0" as follows:
"Table1 — Minimum orientation factor
Minimum required

strength (MRS)-MPa
Axial 1,0
Circumferential 1,5 1,6 1,7 1,8 1,9
".
2 Modifications to 7.2, "Length of pipes"
Replace the current text in 7.2 with the following:
"The nominal pipe length, l, shall be a minimum length which does not include the depth of the socketed
portions, as shown in Figure 1.
It is recommended to supply pipes in one or more of the following lengths: 3 m, 5 m, 6 m, 10 m or 12 m.
NOTE Other lengths are subject to agreement between the manufacturer and the purchaser.
The tolerance on the nominal pipe length is specified in Table 2.

3 Modifications to 7.4, "Pipes with integral sockets with elastomeric sealing ring
type"
In the first paragraph, replace citation to "Figure 1" with "Figure 2".
In the title of Figure 1, replace “Figure 1 - Socket and spigot end for pipes with elastomeric sealing” with
“Figure 2 - Socket and spigot end for pipes with elastomeric sealing”.
4 Modifications to 9.1.1, "General"
In Table 5, replace headings "MRS315 /MRS355 /MRS400 / MRS450 / MRS500" with "MRS31,5 /MRS35,5 /MRS40,0 / MRS45,0 / MRS50,0" to read
as follows:
