24、L 1726 APRIL 18, 2001 FOREWORD A. This Standard contains basic requirements for products covered by Underwriters Laboratories Inc. (UL) under its Follow-Up Service for this category within the limitations given below and in the Scope section of this Standard. These requirements are based upon sound

25、engineering principles, research, records of tests and field experience, and an appreciation of the problems of manufacture, installation, and use derived from consultation with and information obtained from manufacturers, users, inspection authorities, and others having specialized experience. They

26、 are subject to revision as further experience and investigation may show is necessary or desirable. B. The observance of the requirements of this Standard by a manufacturer is one of the conditions of the continued coverage of the manufacturers product. C. A product which complies with the text of

27、this Standard will not necessarily be judged to comply with the Standard if, when examined and tested, it is found to have other features which impair the level of safety contemplated by these requirements. D. A product employing materials or having forms of construction which conflict with specific

28、 requirements of the Standard cannot be judged to comply with the Standard. A product employing materials or having forms of construction not addressed by this Standard may be examined and tested according to the intent of the requirements and, if found to meet the intent of this Standard, may be ju

29、dged to comply with the Standard. E. UL, in performing its functions in accordance with its objectives, does not assume or undertake to discharge any responsibility of the manufacturer or any other party. The opinions and findings of UL represent its professional judgment given with due consideratio

30、n to the necessary limitations of practical operation and state of the art at the time the Standard is processed. UL shall not be responsible to anyone for the use of or reliance upon this Standard by anyone. UL shall not incur any obligation or liability for damages, including consequential damages

31、, arising out of or in connection with the use, interpretation of, or reliance upon this Standard. F. Many tests required by the Standards of UL are inherently hazardous and adequate safeguards for personnel and property shall be employed in conducting such tests. APRIL 18, 2001 AUTOMATIC DRAIN VALV

32、ES FOR STANDPIPE SYSTEMS - UL 1726 5 INTRODUCTION 1 Scope 1.1 These requirements cover automatic drain valves that are intended to drain water from cavities in standpipe systems intended usually to be empty, such as those between a hose valve and hose rack, and pipe sections between fire department

33、connections and check valves. 1.2 The valves covered by these requirements are intended for installation and use in accordance with the Standard for the Installation of Sprinkler Systems, ANSVNFPA 13-1999, and The Standard for the Installation of Standpipe, Private Hydrant, and Hose Systems, ANSI/N

34、FPA 14-2000. 2 Units of Measurement 2.1 Values stated without parentheses are the requirement. Values in parentheses are explanatory or approximate information. 3 Components 3.1 Except as indicated in 3.2, a component of a product covered by this standard shall comply with the requirements for that

35、component. 3.2 A component is not required to comply with a specific requirement that: a) Involves a feature or characteristic not required in the application of the component in the product covered by this standard, or b) Is superseded by a requirement in this standard. 3.3 A component shall be use

36、d in accordance with its rating established for the intended conditions of use. 3.4 Specific components are incomplete in construction features or restricted in performance capabilities. Such components are intended for use only under limited conditions, such as certain temperatures not exceeding sp

37、ecified limits, and shall be used only under those specific conditions. 6 AUTOMATIC DRAIN VALVES FOR STANDPIPE SYSTEMS - UL 1726 APRIL 18, 2001 Nominal size, inches 1 I2 314 1 4 Undated References Outside diameter Inches (mm) 0.840 (21.34) 1 .O50 (26.67) 1.315 (33.40) 4.1 Any undated reference to a

45、at the outlet of a valve shall be threaded in accordance with the Standard for Fire Hose Connections, ANSVNFPA 1963-1 998, unless specifically intended to fit existing equipment not having these threads. PERFORMANCE 8 Valve Closing Test 8.1 A valve shall close at an applied pressure of 10 psig (68.9

46、 kPa) or less. 8.2 A valve of each size installed in its intended position is to be connected to a water source and slowly pressurized. The pressure at which the flow is reduced to 0.75 gallons per minute (2.8 Um), or less, is defined as closing. 9 Valve Opening Test 9.1 A valve shall open at a pres

47、sure of not less than 5 psig (34.5 kPa). 9.2 The test apparatus utilized to determine compliance with the requirement of 9.1 is to be a horizontal and level piping assembly consisting, in sequence, of: a) A quarter-turn ball valve connected to a water source; b) A tee with the stem pointing vertical

48、ly upward; c) A needle valve; and d) The drain valve under test. A manometer is to be fitted to the vertical stem of the tee, and the end of the manometer is to be open to the atmosphere. 9.3 With the needle valve closed, the ball valve is to be opened and water is to flow in the assembly until the

49、drain valve closes and water rises in the manometer. The ball valve then is to be closed and the needle valve opened so that the water level in the manometer decreases. When the drain valve opens, the water level in the manometer shall be equivalent to a pressure of not less than 5 psig (34.5 kPa). 8 AUTOMATIC DRAIN VALVES FOR STANDPIPE SYSTEMS - UL 1726 APRIL 18, 2001 10 Body Leakage Test 10.1 A valve body shall show no leakage when pressurized to twice the valves rated maximum working pressure. 10.2 A valve of each size is to be fitted with threaded pipe plugs and filled with water
