Agricultural irrigation equipment — Thermoplastic collapsible hoses for irrigation — Specifications and test methods

This document specifies requirements and test methods for reinforced and non-reinforced thermoplastic collapsible hoses, intended to be used as main and sub-main supply lines for the conveyance and distribution of water for irrigation, at water temperatures up to 50 °C. PVC layflat hoses are excluded from this document. It is applicable to irrigation hoses with nominal diameters between 40 mm and 500 mm and working pressures between 0,3 bar (30 kPa) and 6 bar (600 kPa). This document is applicable to two types of hose configurations, with or without outlet connections (see Clause 4).

ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www .iso .org/ directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or

Introduction
Thermoplastic collapsible hoses have been introduced to agricultural irrigation projects in recent
years, as headers supplying drip tape systems or as replacement for gated pipes.
Thermoplastic collapsible hoses for irrigation are a special type of hoses. They have a unique
combination of attributes and requirements which must be well specified and controlled, but are not
covered by any other International Standard:
— equal and accurate spacing of multiple water outlet connections along their length;
— low elongation and amount of twist while under pressure;
— resistance to most fertilizers and other chemicals employed in irrigation;
— protection against degradation by UV radiation;
— impermeability of wall to incident light;
— information of pressure loss data.
