Kunststoff-Rohrleitungssysteme für die Gasversorgung - Rohrleitungssysteme aus weichmacherfreiem Polyamid (PA-U) mit Schweißverbindungen und mechanischen Verbindungen - Teil 6: Leitfaden für Planung, Handhabung und Installation (ISO 16486-6:2012)
Overview
Standard DIN ISO 16486-6 is the German version of ISO 16486-6. This standard specifies a code of practice dealing with unplasticized polyamide (PA-U) piping systems, intended to be buried outside buildings and used for the supply of gaseous fuels. It addresses the common basic principles for gas supply systems. The ISO 16486 standard series is applicable to PA-U piping systems the components of which are connected by fusion jointing and/or mechanical jointing. This part contains in particular quality aspects. ISO 16486-1:2012 has been prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 138 "Plastics pipes, fittings and valves for the transport of fluids", Subcommittee SC 4 "Plastics pipes and fittings for the supply of gaseous fuels". The committee responsible for DIN EN ISO 13229 is NA 054-05-02 AA "Prüfverfahren für Rohre" ("Test methods for plastic pipes") at DIN. The responsible German committee is Working Committee NA 054-05-08 AA "Kunststoff-Rohrleitungssysteme für die Gasversorgung" ("Plastics piping systems for the supply of gaseous fuels") at the DIN Standards Committee Plastics (FNK).
