EN 15664-1:2008+A1:2013 (E) 5 Introduction The main application of metallic materials in water supply is within the domestic installation. The test method given in this standard is designed to provide information on metal release over time from metallic materials into drinking water. The test is based on a programme of alternating periods of once-through flow and stagnation in a rig, simulating the conditions in a domestic distribution system. The test conditions are more relevant than conditions of continuous through-flow or sit and soak tests and are applicable to all metallic materials in distribution systems. Internal corrosion of metallic products in water conveying systems generally leads to the build-up of layers, which might or might not be protective. The factors influencing corrosion are described in EN 12502-1. Type and rate of the production of corrosion products and the rate of metal release can depend on: • characteristics of the metallic material; • characteristics of the water; • design and construction; • pressure testing and commissioning; • operating conditions and duration of operation. Corrosion product layers begin to form as soon as a metallic material comes into contact with water. Their properties depend on the factors noted above and for a given water/material combination especially on the operating conditions. It is not possible to reproduce the conditions of an actual installation in tests by constant once-through flow or circulation of water. The flow regime (3.16) used in this test simulates the operating conditions in domestic drinking water installations where stagnation times of water considerably exceed the times of through-flow. An assessment by testing is possible only if the influence of the flow regime (3.16) and the operation period (3.19) is taken into consideration. A compilation of data are needed, which has been determined under defined conditions over a prolonged period of time. In most cases, metal release decreases with operation time. For some alloying elements and impurities, however, an increase in their release can be observed. SIST EN 15664-1:2008+A1:2014

Pipes shall have an inner diameter of (13 ± 1) mm. Where this diameter is not available then the next larger commercially available size shall be used. The test pipes shall be marked with the name of the manufacturer, identification of the material and the date of manufacture. When testing pipes by comparative testing, the inner pipe diameter shall be the same for both the candidate material and the reference material. 5.4.3 Materials in the form of test pieces Each test line shall consist of five test pieces connected by pipes as shown in Annex A, Figure A.2. All five test pieces in one test line shall be representative of one material. The internal surface which is exposed to the test water shall have a length of (100 ± 1) mm and a diameter of (17 ± 0,3) mm. The sections of pipe and the pipe connections between the individual test pieces shall be of stainless steel, conforming to EN 10088-1, material no. 1.4401. Pipes shall have an inner diameter (13 ± 1) mm. Connecting pieces shall be in the form defined in Annex A. The test pieces and the pipe sections shall be equi-potentially bonded. The test pieces shall be marked with the name of the manufacturer, identification of the material and the date of manufacture. 5.5 Reference lines for comparative testing When the test rig is used for comparative testing it shall contain reference lines in addition to the test lines (see 5.4.2 and 5.4.3): • three reference lines when testing materials in the form of pipes; • three reference lines each containing five test pieces made of the reference material, when testing materials for other forms. 6 Operating conditions 6.1 General The test rig shall be operated at a room temperature of (20 ± 5) °C and shall not be thermally insulated. Temporary deviations of the temperature shall be recorded. The water supply shall be able to maintain a supply pressure of at least 3 bar over the whole period of the test. The test water shall have a pressure between 3 bar and 5 bar upon entering the test rig. For a newly built test rig, conditioning (6.2) and fractional sampling (6.3) shall be carried out before using it for testing. After changes of the test rig, which may influence its hydraulic properties, repeat fractional sampling. SIST EN 15664-1:2008+A1:2014



EN 15664-1:2008+A1:2013 (E) 11 Before beginning the operation period, the test rig shall be flushed using test water for 1 h at a flow rate of (5 ± 0.5) l/min. 6.2 Conditioning In order to test the proper function of the components used and flush the system, a newly built rig shall be operated for a minimum of one week using dummy lines in the place of test lines and reference lines. 6.3 Fractional Sampling 6.3.1 General Fractional sampling shall be carried out in order to: • Check the proper hydraulic function of the test rig; • Demonstrate the sampling conditions are appropriately controlled; and • Determine the sampling volumes. This procedure shall be carried out once with a single test line. The results remain valid for any further tests carried out using the same equipment and test pipes and test pieces having identical geometrical dimensions. The test line shall include five test pieces as shown in Annex A, Figure A.2. The two outer and the middle test pieces shall be made of materials of high metal release rates (e.g. Pb, Cu) while the two other test pieces shall consist of an inert material for the purposes of the test. The test line shall be operated for a minimum of one week before starting the fractional sampling procedure. After a minimum of 2 h stagnation, n samples of (30 ± 10) mL volume shall be taken sequentially until a total volume of not less than 1 500 mL has been collected. For each fraction j, the volume vf(j) shall be determined and the concentrations cf(j) of the chosen element shall be analysed. NOTE The choice of the appropriate element for this procedure depends on the selected material. More than one element can be analysed when appropriate. 6.3.2 Calculation and expression of results for fractional sampling For each fraction j, calculate the cumulated flushed volume V(j) according to Formula (1): jffi1V(j)1/2v(j)v(i)==−×+∑, for j = 1 to n (1) where n
= total number of samples;
vf(j)
= volume (ml) of fraction j;
vf(i)
= volume (ml) of fraction i, for 1 ≤ i ≤ j.
The cumulated flushed volume V(n) of the last fraction sampled shall be at least 1 500 mL. SIST EN 15664-1:2008+A1:2014
