What is BS EN 3079 - Technical specifications of pipe coupling about?
BS EN 3079 is a European Standard that covers technical specifications of pipe couplings, enabling superior sealing and prevention of leaks in aerospace applications.
BS EN 3079 standard specifies the required characteristics, inspection and test methods, quality assurance and procurement requirements for metric series 8°30' adaptors, for temperature ranges type II and III according to ISO 6771 and nominal pressure up to 28 000 kPa.
Who is BS EN 3079 - Technical specifications of pipe coupling for?
BS EN 3079 on technical specifications of pipe-coupling is useful for:
- Manufacturers of pipe couplings
- Dealers and importers of pipe couplings
- Testing houses for pipe couplings
- Quality assurance services
- Regulatory bodies
Why should you use BS EN 3079 - Technical specifications of pipe coupling?
Pipe couplers slip over the outside of two pipes to connect them, usually permanently. A coupling can be a reducer, or reducing coupling, meaning they reduce flow by joining a larger pipe to a smaller size. Adapters are used when connecting two pipes of different types.
BS EN 3079 provides you guidance on requirements for pipe couplings, including materials, dimensions, product identification, surface roughness, surface defects and more, enabling you to standardize the dimensional and physical properties of pipe couplings.
BS EN 3079 also provides you guidance on inspection, testing and specimens for qualification of coupling assemblies, including proof pressure, gaseous pressure, hydraulic impulse resistance, minimum burst pressure and more, ensuring the performance, safety and operability in aerospace applications.
With obedience and compliance to BS EN 3079, you can develop and assess pipe couplings, ensuring stable operability, prevention of hazards and temperature resistance in aerospace applications.
