guides and supports. The piping system shall be designed in such a way to minimize
stresses resulting Irom surge or transient pressures on account oI valve closures or
other condition resulting in charge in Iluid velocity and those resulting Irom
movements such as expansion and contraction Irom pressure and temperature
diIIerences.
ix. Epoxy resins and additives used in the manuIacture oI potable water piping and
Iittings shall satisIy the requirements oI FDA / NSF / WHO or other Indian regulatory
Authorities Ior potability oI water.
1.4 Qualification & Quality Control of GRE Piping
i. The piping and Iittings shall be qualiIied Ior pressure rating as per ASTM D 2992.
ManuIacturer shall enclose the test report and calculations.
ii. For quality control, the short term hydrostatic pressure (STHP) oI at least one sample
per production lot shall be determined in accordance with ASTM D 1599 at standard
laboratory temperature and the value should not be less than mean oI STHP Ior the
representative product established in the qualiIication test. The test report Ior
qualiIication and quality control shall be certiIied by reputed certiIying agencies like
LRS, DNV, BV, ABS, TUV, Vetco Tuboscope.
iii. Test certiIicates shall be provided Ior use oI GRE piping, Iittings, O-rings, gaskets and
adhesives in portable water applications as per FDA /NSF / SHO or other Indian
regulatory Authorities.
iv. The Iire water piping shall qualiIy endurance testing requirements as per level 3
requirements oI IMO Resolution A 753(18) or as latest version oI ISO standard 14692-
2 Ior glass reinIorced plastics piping in Petroleum and Natural Gas Industries.
v. The GRE pipe Ior dry portion oI Iire water system shall be designed such that line is
capable oI withstanding initially Iire up to maximum oI 5 minutes by jet Iire, Ilowed
by Ilowing water Irom deluge system by which time the line gets Iilled with water due
to actuation oI deluge system. The heat Ilux oI impinging Ilame shall be decided based
upon saIety studies but the minimum heat Ilux considered shall be between 300 and
400 kW/m
2
.
vi. The GRE piping shall conIorm to the Iire endurance tests Ior dry condition in
accordance with appendix I oI IMO resolution A. 753 (18), 1993.
