Technical specification Current

Plastics pipes and fittings - Reinforced thermoplastics pipe systems for the supply of gaseous fuels for pressures up to 4 MPa (40 bar)

ISO/TS 18226:2006 describes the use of reinforced thermoplastics pipe (RTP) systems for transmission of gaseous fuels at maximum operating pressures up to and including 40 bars, and service temperatures in the region - 50 °C to 120 °C, depending on the liner and cover materials. ISO/TS 18226:2006 relates to transmission systems in which wear and damage to the liner are restricted by limiting pigging operations to soft pigging only. The recommendations in ISO/TS 18226:2006 are confined to RTP and its associated in-line fittings and end-fittings. Where the other system components (elbows, tees, valves, etc.) are of conventional construction, they will be governed by existing standards and codes of practice. ISO/TS 18226:2006 specifies a qualification testing procedure for RTP systems. It also provides a procedure for reconfirmation of the design basis that may be used for product variants where changes have been made in design, materials or the manufacturing process.

ZOOM ON ... the Requirements department
To comply with a standard, you need to quickly understand its issues in order to determine its impact on your activity.

The Requirements department helps you quickly locate within the normative text:
- mandatory clauses to satisfy,
- non-essential but useful clauses to know, such as permissions and recommendations.

The identification of these types of clauses is based on the document “ISO / IEC Directives, Part 2 - Principles and rules of structure and drafting of ISO documents ”as well as on a constantly enriched list of verbal forms.
