ISO 4427-1:2019 CERTIFICATE
ISO 4427-1:2019 is an international standard that outlines the specifications for plastics piping systems made from polyethylene (PE), specifically designed for water supply and drainage applications under pressure. This standard is part of a series that addresses various aspects of PE piping systems.
The standard specifies requirements for pressure pipes and fittings intended for:
Conveyance of water for human consumption.
Raw water prior to treatment.
Drainage and sewerage under pressure.
Vacuum sewer systems.
Other water-related purposes23.
Operating Conditions: It defines the conditions under which these pipes and fittings can operate, including:
A maximum allowable operating pressure (PFA) up to 25 bar.
A reference operating temperature of 20 °C3.
Components Covered: The standard applies to:
PE pipes and fittings.
Their joints, including connections with components made from other materials3.
Testing Requirements: ISO 4427-1 also specifies test parameters and methods necessary to ensure compliance with the standard's requirements, ensuring the safety and reliability of the piping systems34.
This standard is critical for manufacturers and users of PE piping systems, ensuring that products meet safety, quality, and performance criteria essential for effective water management and infrastructure development.
