SCOPE AND FIELD OF APPLICATION This specification along with applicable codes and standards describes the minimum requirements for design, selection, manufacture, inspection/ testing and supply of "MDPE FITTINGS". This specification elaborates the requirements for Electrofusion fittings in the nominal size range 16 to 180 mm made from PE compound used with PE pipes for supply of natural gas and to be used at operating pressure 4.0 Bar(g) & operating temperature 25°C. The material grades to be used are PE80 / PE100. The bidder shall highlight any conflict before finalizing the offer and purchaser’s decision shall be final in this regard. Compliance with this specification shall not relieve the vendor of the responsibility of furnishing equipment and auxiliaries of proper design, material and workmanship to meet specified operating conditions.

ELECTRO FUSION FITTING TING

Rev. A

1.1

For Electro Fusion fitting ting an electrical resistance element is incorporated in the socket of fitting which when connected to an appropriate power supply, melts and fuses the materials of the pipe and fitting together.

1.2

The effectiveness of this technique depends on attention to the preparation of the ting surfaces, in particular the removal of the oxidized surface of the pipe over the socket depth and ensuring the ting surface are clean. If ovality causes gap between concentrically located pipe and the fitting to exceed 1% of the pipe OD after re-rounding to ensure correct welding. If the gap still exceeds 1% of the pipe OD after re-rounding, then a check should be made of the pipe OD dimensions to determine if it meets specification.

1.3

The maximum gap between eccentrically located pipe and fitting i.e. pipe touching fitting at one point must not exceed 2% of the pipe OD.

1.4

Sometimes coiled pipes may be too oval to fit into couplers or the end of the pipe may make the alignment of the ends impossible. In such circumstances, the use of a mechanical pipe straightener or rounding tool is necessary.

SCOPE AND FIELD OF APPLICATION: This General Technical Specification specifies the requirements for Ball Valves and its component made from extruded or injected moulded polyethylene (PE) and which are intended to be used for the Natural gas distribution systems where the operating pressure (MOP) is 4 barg and operating temperature is 250C. In addition, it specifies some general properties of the materials from which these valves are made. It applies to bi-directional valves with Electro fusion sockets intended to be fused with polyethylene pipes. This specification is limited to valves with a nominal diameter (do) up to and including 180 mm.

DEFINITIONS:

3.1

VALVES An obtruding device designed to stop or restore the gas flow by operating and closing mechanisms.


Page 25 of 30


3.2

EXTERNAL LEAK TIGHTNESS The tightness of the body enveloping the space containing the gas, with respect to the atmosphere.

3.3

INTERNAL LEAK-TIGHTNESS The tightness between the inlet and the outlet of the valve, obtained by closing the operating mechanism.

3.4

LEAK-TIGHTNESS TEST Test to determine  The internal leak-tightness of the valve’s closing seat when closed and pressurized from either side.  The external leak-tightness of the valve when half open.

3.5

INITIATING TORQUE Torque required to initiate movement of the obturator.

3.6

RUNNING TORQUE Torque required to achieve full opening or closing of the valve at maximum allowable operating pressure.

3.7

LEAKAGE Emission of gas through the body, sealing membrane or any other component of the valve.

MATERIAL PARTICULARITIES:

5.1

GENERAL All parts of the valve in with the gas stream shall be resistant to the gas, its condensates and other occurring substances such as dust. All metallic parts of the PE valve shall resist to both internal and external corrosion.

5.2

PE COMPOUND FOR POLYETHYLENE VALVES BODIES  The PE compound from which the valve body, with electro fusion socket is made out, shall conform to prENl555-1.  The PE valves bodies are PE 80 / PE 100 class made from below listed material are forbidden: a) Use of recycled materials b) Mixture of different materials c) Addition of complementary materials

5.3

SEALS The seals shall be so mounted as to be resistant to normally occurring mechanical loads. Creep and cold flow effects shall be taken into . Any mechanism that puts a loading on the seals shall be permanently locked. Line pressure shall not be used as the sole means of seal activation.  The seals shall be homogeneous, without any inner crack, inclusion or impurities and cannot contain any component that can alter the properties of the materials they are in with and prevent the nonconformity of those materials with the present specification.  Additives shall be distributed evenly.  The rubber seal rings shall comply with standard EN 682.  Other seals shall comply with the relevant standard and be suitable for gas service.

5.4

LUBRICANTS Lubricants cannot have any adverse effects on the long term performance of the valve parts.
