Plastics piping systems for water supply, and for drains and sewers under pressure - Polyethylene (PE) - Part 5: Fitness for purpose of the system; German version EN 12201-5:2024
Abstract
DIN EN 12201-5 specifies the characteristics of the fitness for purpose of the assembled piping systemsintended for the conveyance of water intended for human consumption, raw water prior to treatment, drainage andsewerage under pressure, vacuum sewer systems, and water for other purposes.It also specifies the method of preparation of test piece joints, and the tests to be carried out on these joints forassessing the fitness for purpose of the system under normal and extreme conditions. DIN EN 12201-5 also specifies the test parameters for the test methods referred to in this standard. In conjunction with DIN EN 12201-1 to -4 it is applicable to PE pipes, fittings, valves, their joints and to jointswith components of other materials intended to be used under the following conditions:a) allowable operating pressure, PFA, up to 25 bar 1) ;b) an operating temperature of 20 °C as a reference temperature.c) buried in the ground;d) sea outfalls;e) laid in water;f) above ground, including pipes suspended below bridges. DIN EN 12201 (all parts) covers a range of allowable operating pressures and gives requirements concerning colours and additives.
