Piping systems for rehabilitation of underground gas supply networks — Part 1: Polyethylene (PE) material

This document specifies requirements and test methods for pipes and fittings which are part of piping systems for the rehabilitation, by means of renovation and trenchless replacement, of underground gas supply networks.It is applicable to polyethylene (PE) pipes, fittings and assemblies, as manufactured and as installed. It is not applicable to the existing pipeline.This document is applicable to the following technique families for renovation, intended to be used at an operating temperature of 20 °C as a reference temperature:lining with continuous pipes;lining with close-fit pipes.This document is applicable to the following technique families for trenchless replacement, intended to be used at an operating temperature of 20 °C as a reference temperature:pipe bursting and pipe extraction;horizontal directional drilling and impact moling.This document is applicable to:PE solid wall single layered pipes (nominal outside diameter, dn), including any identification stripes;PE pipes with co-extruded layers on either or both the outside and inside of the pipe (total outside diameter, dn), as specified in Annex D, where all layers have the same minimum required strength (MRS) rating.Furthermore, when used with lining with continuous pipes and trenchless replacement, this document is applicable to:PE coated pipes (outside diameter, dn) having a peelable, contiguous, thermoplastics additional layer on the outside of the pipe (“coated pipe”), as specified in Annex D.NOTE            When used with lining with close-fit lining pipes, the lining pipe is reduced in the factory or on site to provide a close-fitting independent or interactive pressure pipe liner.This document is applicable to jointing by means of butt fusion and electrofusion and to fabricated and injection-moulded fittings and mechanical connections of PE.This document is not applicable to push-fit jointed discrete pipes assembled as part of the trenchless installation process.

Piping systems for rehabilitation of underground gas supply networks — Part 1: Polyethylene (PE) material

This document specifies requirements and test methods for pipes and fittings which are part of piping systems for the rehabilitation, by means of renovation and trenchless replacement, of underground gas supply networks.

It is applicable to polyethylene (PE) pipes, fittings and assemblies, as manufactured and as installed. It is not applicable to the existing pipeline.

This document is applicable to the following technique families for renovation, intended to be used at an operating temperature of 20 °C as a reference temperature:

  • lining with continuous pipes;
  • lining with close-fit pipes.

This document is applicable to the following technique families for trenchless replacement, intended to be used at an operating temperature of 20 °C as a reference temperature:

  • pipe bursting and pipe extraction;
  • horizontal directional drilling and impact moling.

This document is applicable to:

  • PE solid wall single layered pipes (nominal outside diameter, dn), including any identification stripes;
  • PE pipes with co-extruded layers on either or both the outside and inside of the pipe (total outside diameter, dn), as specified in Annex D, where all layers have the same minimum required strength (MRS) rating.

Furthermore, when used with lining with continuous pipes and trenchless replacement, this document is applicable to:

  • PE coated pipes (outside diameter, dn) having a peelable, contiguous, thermoplastics additional layer on the outside of the pipe (“coated pipe”), as specified in Annex D.

NOTE            When used with lining with close-fit lining pipes, the lining pipe is reduced in the factory or on site to provide a close-fitting independent or interactive pressure pipe liner.

This document is applicable to jointing by means of butt fusion and electrofusion and to fabricated and injection-moulded fittings and mechanical connections of PE.

This document is not applicable to push-fit jointed discrete pipes assembled as part of the trenchless installation process.

Plastics piping systems for renovation of underground gas supply networks — Part 2: Lining with continuous pipes

This document, read in conjunction with ISO 11299-1, specifies requirements and test methods for pipes and fittings which are part of plastics piping systems installed as continuous pipes in the renovation of underground gas supply networks. It is applicable to polyethylene (PE) pipes of three different types: — PE solid wall single layered pipes (nominal outside diameter, dn), including any identification stripes; — PE pipes with co-extruded layers on either or both the outside and inside of the pipe (total outside diameter, dn), as specified in Annex A, where all layers have the same MRS rating; — Coated PE pipes (outside diameter, dn) having a peelable, contiguous, thermoplastics additional layer on the outside of the pipe ("coated pipe"), as described in Annex A. In addition it covers: — jointing of pipe lengths by means of butt fusion; — fabricated and injection-moulded fittings made of PE; It is applicable to PE pipes, fittings and assemblies intended to be used at an operating temperature of 20 °C as the reference temperature. NOTE For other operating temperatures, guidance is given in ISO 4437-5:2014.

Plastics piping systems for the trenchless replacement of underground pipeline networks — Part 1: Replacement on the line by pipe bursting and pipe extraction

ISO 21225-1:2018 specifies requirements and test methods for pipes and fittings which are part of plastics piping systems for the trenchless replacement of underground non-pressure and pressure drainage and sewerage networks and underground water and gas supply networks, by means of pipe bursting and pipe extraction. ISO 21225-1:2018 is applicable to polyethylene (PE) pipes and fittings, as manufactured, as well as to the installed replacement system. ISO 21225-1:2018 is intended to be used in conjunction with standards applicable for the construction of PE pipeline systems where available. Regarding manufactured pipes it is applicable to three different PE pipe types: - PE solid wall single layered pipes (nominal outside diameter, dn), including any identification stripes; - PE pipes with co-extruded layers on either or both the outside and inside of the pipe (total outside diameter, dn), as specified in Annex A, where all layers have the same MRS rating; - PE pipes (outside diameter, dn) having a peelable, contiguous, thermoplastics additional layer on the outside of the pipe ("coated pipe"), see Annex A. In addition, ISO 21225-1:2018 is applicable to: - jointing of pipe lengths by means of butt fusion joint; - jointing of pipe lengths by means of electrofusion joint; - fabricated and injection-moulded fittings made of PE. Pipes made from other plastics, e.g. glass reinforced plastics (GRP), are outside the scope of this document.
