BS EN 803:1995 Plastics piping systems. Injection-moulded thermoplastics fittings for elastic sealing ring type joints for pressure piping. Test method for resistance to a short-term internal pressure without end thrust

This standard specifies a method for testing the resistance to internal hydrostatic pressure at 20 °C of any injection-moulded thermoplastics fittings with elastic sealing ring type joints for thermoplastics pressure pipes having a nominal diameter, dn, less than or equal to 315 mm, where the joint is not intended to withstand hydrostatic end thrust.
This method is intended for testing fittings over a period of the order of 1 h to 10 h at a pressure which is material-dependent and typically severa times the nominal pressure of the fitting.
