32、ISSION FROM UL 6 Terminology 6.1 The term pipe , piping ,o rtting as used in these requirements refers to all thermoplastic pipe or ttings or any part thereof covered by these requirements unless specically noted otherwise. 7 Glossary 7.1 For the purposes of these requirements, the following denitio

33、ns apply. 7.2 FLEXIBLE THERMOPLASTIC PIPE A re sprinkler pipe that has sufficient exibility to achieve directional changes, provided turns are not made with the pipe using a bending radius less than the minimum specied in the installation and design manual. 7.3 MULTIPURPOSE PIPING SYSTEM A piping sy

34、stem within residential occupancies (NFPA 13R), dwellings, and manufactured homes (NFPA 13D), intended to serve both domestic and re protection needs. 7.4 NPS (NOMINAL PIPE SIZE) A dimensionless designator for pipe sizes dened in standards including Standard Specication for Chlorinated Poly (Vinyl C

35、hloride) (CPVC) Plastic Pipe (SDRPR), ASTM F442/F442M and for PEX it is Standard Specication for Crosslinked Polyethylene (PEX) Hot- and Cold-Water Distribution Systems, ASTM F877 used to replace terms such as “Nominal Diameter” and “Nominal Size.” 7.5 RATED PRESSURE The maximum internal water press

36、ure to which the piping is intended to be subjected to in the sprinkler system. 7.6 RATED TEMPERATURE The maximum ambient temperature for which the piping is intended to be exposed for the re sprinkler application. 7.7 THERMOPLASTIC A plastic capable of being repeatedly softened by heating and harde

37、ned by cooling through a particular temperature range that is characteristic of the plastic. In the softened state, it is able to be shaped by processes such as molding or extrusion. 8 Use in Environmental Air Handling Spaces 8.1 Thermoplastic pipe intended for use in ceiling cavity environmental ai
