Introduction
The first edition of EN 488 was approved in 1994. The main areas of the revision are:
 the title has been amended by ”District heating pipes”;
 the term ”underground” has been changed to ”directly buried”;
 the mentioning in the foreword of the production method ”injected (poured)” has been deleted;
 two notes concerning commonly used types of valves and rules for calculation of loads and stresses in valve
assemblies have been added to the scope;
 service pipes with nominal diameters from DN 700 up to and including DN 1200 have been added and the
requirements have been amended accordingly;
 through the reference to EN 448 casings with nominal outside diameters from 900 mm up to and including
1400 mm have been added and the requirements have been amended accordingly;
 through the reference to EN 448 the requirements for polyethylene welding have been changed.
This specification is part of the standards for bonded systems using polyurethane foam thermal insulation applied
to bond to a steel service pipe and a polyethylene casing.
For information on the minimum expected thermal life with operation at various temperatures with respect to PUR
foam performance see EN 253:2003, annex B.
