Plastics piping systems for hot and cold water installations - Crosslinked polyethylene (PE-X) - Part 1: General (ISO 15875-1:2025)
This document specifies the general aspects of crosslinked polyethylene (PE-X) piping systems intended to be used for hot and cold water installations within buildings for the conveyance of water, whether or not intended for human consumption (domestic systems), and for heating systems, under design pressures and temperatures according to the class of application (see Table 1).
This document also specifies the basis for the test parameters for the test methods referred to in the ISO 15875 series.
This document covers a range of service conditions (application classes), design pressures and pipe dimension classes. The ISO 15875 series does not apply to values of design temperature (TD), maximum temperature (Tmax) and malfunction temperature (Tmal), as well as service times in excess of those defined in Table 1.

Dieses Dokument legt auch die Grundlage für die Prüfparameter für die Prüfverfahren fest, auf die in der Normenreihe ISO 15875 verwiesen wird.
Dieses Dokument behandelt eine Reihe von Betriebsbedingungen (Anwendungsklassen) sowie Klassen von zulässigen Betriebsdrücken und Rohrmaßen. Die Normenreihe ISO 15875 gilt nicht für Werte der Berechnungstemperatur (TD), der Höchsttemperatur (Tmax) und der Störfalltemperatur (Tmal) sowie Betriebsdauern, die über die in Tabelle 1 festgelegten hinausgehen.

Le présent document spécifie les aspects généraux des systèmes de canalisations en polyéthylène réticulé (PE-X) destinés à des 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 (voir Tableau 1).
Le présent document spécifie également la base des paramètres d'essai pour les méthodes d'essai référencées dans la série ISO 15875.
Le présent document couvre une gamme de conditions de service (classes d’application), de pressions de service et de classes de dimension du tube. La série ISO 15875 ne s’applique pas aux valeurs de température de service (TD), de température maximale (Tmax) et de température de dysfonctionnement (Tmal) ainsi qu’aux durées de service supérieures à celles du Tableau 1.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through
ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee
has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations,
governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely
with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are described
in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the different types
of ISO document should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the editorial rules of the
ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
ISO draws attention to the possibility that the implementation of this document may involve the use of (a)
patent(s). ISO takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of any claimed patent
rights in respect thereof. As of the date of publication of this document, ISO had not received notice of (a)
patent(s) which may be required to implement this document. However, implementers are cautioned that
this may not represent the latest information, which may be obtained from the patent database available at
www.iso.org/patents. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights
