Plastics piping systems - Polyethylene (PE) and crosslinked polyethylene (PE-X) pipes - Test method for the resistance to internal pressure after application of squeeze-off prEN 12106 rev

Scope

This standard specifies a method for determining the resistance to internal pressure of polyethylene (PE) and crosslinked polyethylene (PE-X) pipes after being subjected to a squeeze-off procedure.

Note Squeeze off can be used to limit gas flow to allow maintenance, repair or to make network connections. Squeeze off is specified in EN 1555-2 [2], ISO 4437-1 [3] and ISO 14531-1 [4].
