It also covers the preparation method of test piece connections and the tests to be performed on these connections to evaluate the system's fitness for purpose under normal and extreme conditions.

EN 12201-5 is a European standard that specifies the requirements for the fitness for purpose of polyethylene (PE) piping systems for water supply and drainage under pressure and sewage. This standard is part of a set of standards covering all polyethylene piping systems used in these applications.

The purpose of EN 12201-5 is to ensure that polyethylene piping systems for water supply, drainage and pressure sewer are fit for purpose and meet the required performance requirements. This standard covers the performance of the entire system, including the pipes, fittings, valves and other components that make up the system.

EN 12201-5 specifies criteria for fitness for purpose, including pressure testing, leak testing, resistance to slow crack growth and resistance to rapid crack propagation. The standard also covers system durability, including resistance to chemical attack, long-term durability and weather resistance.

In addition, EN 12201-5 contains requirements for marking and labeling of system components and for guidance on installation and maintenance of the system.

In general, EN 12201-5 is an important standard that ensures that polyethylene piping systems for water supply and pressure drainage and sewerage are fit for purpose and meet the required performance requirements. Compliance with this standard helps ensure the safety, reliability and durability of these piping systems and protect the health and well-being of people and the environment.
