Test criteria |
|
Maximum applicable pressure |
The maximum applicable pressure of sprinkler joint must be higher than 14kgf/. No abnormality |
No abnormality |
pressure resistance test |
There must not be any deformation, breakage or leakage when water pressure that is equivalent to 1.5 times the maximum applicable pressure (21kgf/) has been applied for 15 minutes. |
No abnormality |
permanent deformation test |
After having applied water pressure that is equivalent to 1.5 times the maximum applicable pressure (21kgf/) for 1 minute and let the product sit idly for 5 minutes, the length must be less than 8.4mm/m and must not exceed maximum of 31mm. |
No abnormality |
vibration test |
There must not be any loosening or leakage when subjected to vibration with pitch of 5 mm and frequency of 25 times/second for 6 hours while under the water pressure of 1kgf/. |
No abnormality |
bending test |
There must not be any leakage after the product has been subjected to bending test in which the product has been repetitively bent through 90 angle to the left and right 15 times each under water pressure of 0.21kgf/. |
No abnormality |
water hammer test |
There must not be any leakage when water pressure that is equivalent to 1.5 times the maximum applicable pressure (21kgf/) has been applied for 5 minutes after having subjected the product to continuous water hammering 4,000 times at the force of 3.5kgf/~35kgf/ per second. |
No abnormality |
destructive test |
There must not be any destruction when water pressure that is equivalent to 4 times the maximum applicable pressure (56kgf/) has been applied. |
No abnormality |
frictional loss test |
Emission coefficient (K) and equivalent length must be within 5% of the proposed value. |
No abnormality |
