Plastics Piping Systems for Drainage and Sewerage with or without Pressure - Glass-Reinforced Thermosetting Plastics (GRP) based on Unsaturated Polyester Resin (UP) - Specifications for Pipes, Fittings and Joints
Also Known As:
The DIN EN 14364 standard provides detailed specifications for the design, manufacture, and performance of plastics piping systems used in drainage and sewerage applications. The standard specifically focuses on glass-reinforced thermosetting plastics (GRP) based on unsaturated polyester resin (UP).
The standard covers various aspects of the piping system, including the properties of pipes, fittings, and joints. It sets out the necessary requirements for these components to ensure their suitability for use in drainage or sewerage systems, whether under pressure or not.
One key aspect of the standard is the consideration of the compatibility and interoperability of different components within a pipework system. Pipes and fittings with different nominal pressure and stiffness ratings can be used in combination, provided they meet the requirements specified in the standard.
Moreover, the standard emphasizes the intended use of GRP-UP piping systems primarily for buried installations. It addresses both flexible and rigid joint designs, ensuring the pipe's durability and reliability in underground applications.
