EN 12842 Test for Ductile Iron Fittings for PVC-U or PE Piping Systems

EUROLAB laboratory provides testing and compliance services within the scope of EN 12842 standard. This standard specifies ductile iron fittings and mild steel couplings and flange adapters to be used with oli(vinyl chloride) (PVC-U) pipes or polyethylene (PE) pipes, and specifications applicable to their connections and related test methods.

EN 1452-1 to -5, ENV 1452-6 and ENV 1452-7 and EN 12201-1 to 5 respectively for the construction of pipelines: transporting water (eg water for human consumption); with or without pressure; It will be installed inside or outside of buildings, underground or above. This standard is not intended to cover sewer applications where additional requirements may be required.

This standard applies to the following fittings: manufactured with socket, flanged or plug ends; Supplied externally and internally lined; suitable for PE and PVC-U pipes with fluid temperatures between 0°C and 25°C, frost-free, and pressures up to 16 bar (PFA). For higher temperatures (up to 45°C for PVC-U or 40°C for PE) PFA is reduced as given in EN 1452 and EN 12201; It is not intended for use in areas subject to fire regulations.

This standard covers ductile iron fittings, couplings and flange adapters produced by the fabrication of cast or cast components by any foundry process, as well as the corresponding connections for use with pipes in a size range from DN 60 to DN 700. Outer diameter from 63mm to 710mm. This standard also covers couplings and flange adapters for use with PVC-U and PE pipes made of mild steel, as well as corresponding joints in a size range from DN 60 to DN 700. Outside diameters from 63 mm to 710 mm used in pipes.

This standard specifies requirements for materials, dimensions and tolerances, mechanical properties and standard coatings. It also provides performance requirements for all components, including constrained and unrestricted flexible connections. Connection design and gasket shapes are beyond the scope of this standard.

This standard does not cover fittings intended for use with different pipe materials other than PVC-U and PE. This standard does not cover fittings intended for use with different pipe materials other than PVC-U and PE. This standard does not cover fittings intended for use with different pipe materials other than PVC-U and PE. Does not include fasteners.
