Standard Specification for (PVC) Plastic Pipe, …

1 Provided by : Designation: D1785 12An American National StandardStandard Specification forPoly(Vinyl Chloride) (PVC) Plastic pipe , Schedules 40, 80,and 1201 This Standard is issued under the fixed designation D1785; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon ( ) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or Standard has been approved for use by agencies of the Department of Scope* This Specification covers poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) pipe made in Schedule 40, 80, and 120 sizes and pressure-ratedfor water (seeAppendix X1).

2 Included are criteria for classi-fying PVCplastic pipe materials and PVC Plastic pipe , asystem of nomenclature for PVC Plastic pipe , and requirementsand test methods for materials, workmanship, dimensions,sustained pressure, burst pressure, flattening, and extrusionquality. Methods of marking are also The products covered by this Specification are intendedfor use with the distribution of pressurized liquids only, whichare chemically compatible with the piping materials. Due toinherent hazards associated with testing components and sys-tems with compressed air or other compressed gases somemanufacturers do not allow pneumatic testing of their with specific product/component manufacturers fortheir specific testing procedures prior to pneumatic Pressurized (compressed)

3 Air or other compressed gasescontain large amounts of stored energy which present serious safteyhazards should a system fail for any This Standard specifies dimensional, performance and testrequirements for plumbing and fluid handling applications, but does notaddress venting of combustion The text of this Specification references notes, footnotes,and appendixes which provide explanatory material. Thesenotes and footnotes (excluding those in tables and figures) shallnot be considered as requirements of the The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regardedas Standard . The values given in parentheses are mathematicalconversions to SI units that are provided for information onlyand are not considered The following safety hazards caveat pertains only to thetest methods portion, Section8, of this Specification :Thisstandarddoes not purport to address all of the safety concerns,if any, associated with its use.

4 It is the responsibility of the userof this Standard to establish appropriate safety and healthpractices and determine the applicability of regulatory limita-tions prior to specific precautionary statement is giveninNote CPVC Plastic pipes, Schedules 40 and 80, which wereformerly included in this Specification , are now covered by SpecificationF441 The sustained and burst pressure test requirements, and thepressure ratings in theAppendix X1, are calculated from stress valuesobtainedfromtests made on pipe 4 in. (100 mm) and smaller. However,tests conducted on pipe as large as 24-in. (600-mm) diameter have shownthese stress values to be valid for larger diameter PVC PVC pipe made to this Specification is often belled for use asline pipe .

This stress is circumferential when internalhydrostatic water pressure is rating (PR) the estimated maximum waterpressure the pipe is capable of withstanding continuously witha high degree of certainty that failure of the pipe will not between dimensions, design stress, and pres-sure rating the following expression, commonly known asthe ISO equation,5is used in this Specification to relatedimensions, hydrostatic design stress, and pressure rating:2S/P5~D0/t!

Thus a completematerial code shall consist of three letters and four figures forPVC Plastic pipe materials (see Section5).4. This Specification covers PVC pipe made toand marked with one of six type/grade/design stress designa-tions ( ) in Schedule 40, 80, and 120 wall Stresses This Specification cov-ers pipe made from PVC plastics as defined by four hydrostaticdesign stresses which have been developed on the basis oflong-term tests (Appendix X1).

10 5. Materialsand Poly(vinyl chloride) plastics used to makepipe meeting the requirements of this Specification are catego-rized by means of two criteria, namely, (1) short-term strengthtests and (2) long-term strength The PVC pipe intended for use in the transport of potablewater should be evaluated and certified as safe for this purpose by a testingagency acceptable to the local health authority. The evaluation should bein accordance with requirements for chemical extraction, taste, and odorsthat are no less restrictive than those included in NSFS tandard No. mark of the laboratory making the evaluation should beincluded on the pipe . See pipe marking requirement for reclaimed Materials This Specification covers pipe madefrom PVC plastics having certain physical and chemicalproperties as described in The PVCcompounds used for this pipeshall equal or exceed the following classes described inSpecificationD1784; PVC 12454, or Material The manufacturer shall use only hisown clean rework pipe material and the pipe produced shallmeet all the requirements of this and Dimensions and tolerances shall be as shown inTable1andTable 2when measured in accordance with Test MethodD2122.
