Part 2: Bonded system with plastic service pipes; requirements and test methods;

Part 3: Non bonded system with plastic service pipes; requirements and test methods;

Part 4: Bonded system with metal service pipes; requirements and test methods.
In comparison to EN 15632-3:2010+A1:2014 the following changes have been made:

a) revised temperature profile in Clause 4 with explicitly stated (unchanged) safety factors;

b) introduction of an alternative option of thermal stability testing at 115 °C in 5.2;

c) improved specification of a service pipe according to EN ISO 21003 in 5.2;

4 Classification
4.1 Operating temperatures and service life

Pipe systems according to this document are designed for a service life of at least 30 years when

operated at the following temperature profile DH (Table 1):
Table 1 — Temperature profile DH
Temperatures Duration
Operating Temperature (T ) 80 °C 29 Years
Maximum operating 90 °C 7 760 h
temperature (T )
max 95 °C 1 000 h
Malfunction temperature (T ) 100 °C 100 h
mal

NOTE The temperature profile DH of this document exceeds the requirements especially the thermal load of

other plastic piping system standards for conveyed medium water by far. This document requires a thermal

stability test at 110 °C of 15 000 h (see 5.2.1) in comparison to a thermal stability test at 110 °C of 8 760 h for hot

drinking water applications inside of buildings.

Other temperature/time profiles may be applied in accordance with EN ISO 13760 (Miner's Rule).

Further information is given in Annex A.
The maximum operating temperature shall not exceed 95 °C.
4.2 Design pressures

Pipe systems according to this document are designed for continuous operating pressures of 0,6 MPa,

0,8 MPa or 1,0 MPa.

oSIST prEN 15632-3:2021
prEN 15632-3:2020 (E)

Table 2 defines maximum SDR ratios of the service pipe required to withstand the operating pressures.

Table 2 — SDR ratios required for different design pressures
Design Pressure
Service pipe 0,6 MPa 0,8 MPa 1,0 MPa
PE-X SDR 11 SDR 9 SDR 7.4
PB-H SDR 13,6 SDR 11 SDR 9
Multilayer M Wall thicknesses shall be calculated according to
pipes the methods defined in EN ISO 21003-2

NOTE 1 The SDR ratios in Table 2 are based on the reference lines given in EN ISO 15875-1 and

EN ISO 15876-1, respectively.

The following minimum safety factors for design stress shall be applied (Table 3):

Table 3 — Safety factors for design stress
Temperature Safety factor Temperature range
Operating Temperature (T ) 1,5 ≤ 80 °C
Maximum operating temperature 1,3 > 80 °C to ≤ 95 °C
(T )
max
Malfunction temperature (T ) 1,0 > 95 °C to ≤ 100 °C
mal

NOTE 2 These safety factors are identical with the overall service (design) coefficients given in

EN ISO 15875-2, EN ISO 15876-2 and EN ISO 21003-2, respectively.
5 Requirements
5.1 General requirements

In addition to the general requirements defined in EN 15632-1 the following product specific

requirements shall apply.
5.2 Service pipes, fittings and their connections
5.2.1 Quality of service pipes, fittings and their connections
Service pipes, fittings and their connections shall comply with:

— EN ISO 15875-1, EN ISO 15875-2, EN ISO 15875-3, EN ISO 15875-5, for service pipes made of

crosslinked polyethylene (PE-X).

The EN ISO 15875 standards series consisting of part 1, 2, 3 and 5 is a piping system standard.

The documents shall only be used in conjunction with all the other parts of EN ISO 15875. The

EN ISO 15875-1 is of general importance. Pipes conforming to EN ISO 15875-2 are intended to be

joined with fittings conforming to EN ISO 15875-3, whereby the connection conforms to the

requirements of
