(Test Method)Standard Test Method for Resistance to Short-Time Hydraulic Pressure of Plastic Pipe, Tubing, and Fittings
Standard Test Method for Resistance to Short-Time Hydraulic Pressure of Plastic Pipe, Tubing, and Fittings
SIGNIFICANCE AND USE
This test method establishes the short-time hydraulic failure pressure of thermoplastic or reinforced thermosetting resin pipe, tubing, or fittings. Data obtained by this test method are of use only in predicting the behavior of pipe, tubing, and fittings under conditions of temperature, time, method of loading, and hoop stress similar to those used in the actual test. They are generally not indicative of the long-term strength of thermoplastic or reinforced thermosetting resin pipe, tubing, and fittings.
Procurement specifications utilizing this test method may stipulate a minimum and maximum time for failure other than the 60 to 70 s listed in 9.1.3. Either the internal hydraulic pressure or the hoop stress may be listed in the requirements.
Note 1—Many thermoplastics give significantly different burst strengths depending on the time to failure. For instance, significant differences have been observed between failure times of 65 and 85 s.
This test method is also used as a short-term pressurization validation procedure, where the specimens are pressurized to a predetermined minimum pressure requirement.
SCOPE
1.1 This test method covers the determination of the resistance of either thermoplastic or reinforced thermosetting resin pipe, tubing, or fittings to hydraulic presssure in a short time period. Procedure A is used to determine burst pressure of a specimen if the mode of failure is to be determined. Procedure B is used to determine that a specimen complies with a minimum burst requirement.
1.2 This test method is suitable for establishing laboratory testing requirements for quality control purposes or for procurement specifications.
1.3 The values given in parentheses are provided for information purposes only.
1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of whoever uses this standard to consult and establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.

5.1 Any instantaneous or rapid loss of pressure shall constitute failure.
5.2 Any visible passage of fluid through the wall of the specimen shall constitute failure.
5.3 Any loss of pressure that interrupts the continuous and uniform pressure increase, described in 9.1.3, shall constitute failure.
5.4 Leakage at the end closure or fracture of the specimen in the immediate vicinity of the end closure shall be considered as
an invalid test item, not a failure.
6. Apparatus
6.1 Constant-Temperature Bath—A water bath or other fluid bath equipped so that uniform temperature is maintained
throughout the bath. This may require agitation. If an air or other gaseous environment is used, provisions shall be made for
adequate circulation. Unless otherwise stated, the tests shall be conducted at 23 6 2°C (736 3.6°F). The tolerance on other test
temperatures shall be 6 2°C (3.6°F). Fluid environments that chemically attack the specimens shall not be used unless this effect
is being studied. In that case, the purpose of the test shall be included in the report.
NOTE 2—Reinforced thermosetting resin pipe and fittings may show increasing failure pressures as temperature is raised above 23°C in this test.
6.2 Pressurizing System—Adevice capable of applying an essentially continuously increasing internal hydraulic pressure to the
test specimen. Suggested equipment for this test may include the following:
6.2.1 Nitrogen Supply (Cylinder Gas) with a pressure regulator and hydraulic accumulator, or
6.2.1.1 Pump, capable of applying essentially continuously increasing internal hydraulic pressure to the test specimen.
6.3 Pressure Gage, having a precision of not less than 1 % of full-scale deflection with a maximum indicating hand. The
pressure gage shall be selected such that the final readings are in the mid-60 % of the scale. The gage should be equipped with
a surge protection device.
6.3.1 The gage shall be located in the test system at a location such that it only indicates pressure on the specimen and not
indicate pressure built up by water flowing in the supply lines to the specimen.
NOTE 3—When testing materials such as Polyolefins that change in volume greatly before rupture, a large diameter water supply line or location of
the gage on the specimen should be used to eliminate erroneous readings caused by the pressure drop in the water supply line.
6.4 Timing Device—Stop watch or equivalent.
6.5 Specimen End Closures:
6.5.1 Pipe or Tubing—Either free-end or restrained-end closures, that will withstand the maximum test pressures, may be used.
Closures shall be designed so that they do not cause failure of the specimen. Free-end closures shall be used for referee tests.
NOTE 4—Free-end closures fasten to the specimen so that internal pressure produces longitudinal tensile stresses in addition to hoop and radial stesses
in the pipe wall. Restrained-end closures rely on a rod through the specimen or an external structure to resist the end thrust. Stresses in the wall of
restrained-end specimens act in the hoop and radial directions only. Because of this difference in loading, the expected hoop stress at failure in free-end
