4 Principle
The sealing pressure in a joint is estimated by measuring the pressure, necessary to lift the seal, in each of 3
PTFE tubes equally distributed over the circumference of a joint located between the rubber seal and the
spigot or socket as appropriate, see Figure 1.
In a temperature controlled environment and at increasing time intervals, a constant flow rate of 120 ml/min
nitrogen or air is forced through 3 flexible PTFE tubes.
The nitrogen or air pressure p, necessary to achieve this flow, is measured. The pressure p is measured at
t
increasing time intervals over a period of time. The extrapolated regression lines for p are used to calculate
t
the estimated value p at 100 years and p at 24 h.

5.1 A source of nitrogen, with a purity of at least 99,8%, or alternatively, cleaned air (oil free) both capable
1
of supplying a flow of up to 200 ml/min and at a pressure of at least 10 bar .
5.2 Regulator/pressure controller, capable of regulating a stable pressure and flow increase up to
120 ml/min.
5.3 Pressure gauge, for measuring the pressure in the main line and capable of checking conformity to 7.2
(class 0,6 or better as specified in EN 837-1:1996).
5.4 Connecting tube, with an inside diameter of at least 4 mm.
5.5 PTFE tube, conforming to the following:
—
capable of sustaining at least 10 bar pressure.
—
the total thickness of the flattened PTFE tube shall be between 0,16 mm and 0,24 mm, measured in the
middle of the sample and carried out in two positions perpendicular to each other.
—
the total width of the flattened tube shall be between 6 mm and 10 mm.
NOTE The PTFE tube used for this test is a blown-up tube, normally applied as a shrinkage tube.
The original diameter and wall thickness after shrinkage are normally specified. The attention is drawn that the blown-up
dimensions are normally not specified. Care should be taken that the wall thickness and the diameter of the tube as
received are verified. The given tolerances should be seen as a guide for the supplier.
5.6 Flow meter, with a capacity of 200 ml/min and a tolerance of ± 5 ml/min
5.7 Means for storage of the test assembly, capable of fixing and storing the test assembly in such a way
that no additional movements in the joint can occur. It shall be capable of fixing the PTFE tubes in such a way
that during connecting or disconnecting to the pressure gauge and flow meter, no movement of the PTFE tube
in the sealing area can occur.
5.8 Lubricant, an aerosol of silicon (Polydimethylsiloxanoil) with gas propellant (Propane/Butane).
6 Test pieces
6.1 General
Each test piece shall consist of a complete joint, together with its elastomeric seal and PTFE tube(s). Unless
otherwise specified in the referring standard, the number of PTFE tubes shall be three, marked as a, b and c,
equally spaced around the spigot.
6.2 Assembly
Prior to assembly, the test pieces shall be conditioned at the test temperature for at least 24 h.
Clean the rubber sealing ring, the socket and the spigot.
Prepare the PTFE tube by pressing it together several times until permanently flattened and place it along the
smooth surface of the spigot or socket.

Lubricate the smooth wall in the joint (spigot or socket), the seal and PTFE tube(s). The lubricant as defined in
5.8 shall be used. Use sufficient lubricant to ensure that the PTFE shrinkage tube(s) and seal can be
assembled without damage, and the seal can equalise its position within the groove circumference.
Assemble the socket and spigot, including the seal, in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions and the
following requirements.
a) The joint shall be assembled in such a way that the PTFE tubes are mounted between the spigot or
socket and the seal (see Figure 1); precaution shall be taken to avoid squeezing of the PTFE tube outside
the sealing area.
It is permitted to mill a grove, insert thin plastics strips along the tube, drill holes in the spigot or socket or
any other method to give room for sufficient flow through the tube outside the sealing area. The method
selected shall not significantly influence the creep behaviour of the joint in the sealing housing area.
b) Make sure that the PTFE tube can move freely in the axial direction and that the
