20、TERIAL NOT AUTHORIZED FOR FURTHER REPRODUCTION OR DISTRIBUTION WITHOUT PERMISSION FROM UL INTRODUCTION 1 Scope 1.1 These requirements cover hose and hose assemblies in sizes up to and including a nominal internal diameter of 4 in (102 mm) for conveying liqueed petroleum gas (LP-Gas) intended to be i

21、nstalled in closed systems in compliance with the Standard of the National Fire Protection Association Liqueed Petroleum Gas Code, NFPA 58. The hose or hose assembly is intended for a maximum working pressure of 350 pounds per square inch gauge (psig) (2400 kPa) for use at temperatures within the ra

22、nge of minus 40C (minus 40F) to plus 60C (140F), or minus 54C (minus 65F) to plus 60C. Hose and hose assemblies in sizes larger than 2 in (50.8 mm) are not intended for use on reels. 1.2 This standard does not apply to: a) Flexible hose connectors for LP-Gas that are investigated under the Standard

23、for Pigtails and Flexible Hose Connectors for LP-Gas, UL 569; b) Gas appliance connectors for handling fuel gases at 5 psig (34.5 kPa) or less, which are investigated under Connectors for Gas Appliances, ANSI Z21.24, nor to metallic hose intended for use in oil transportation piping, in petroleum re

24、nery piping, or in gas transmission and distribution piping systems; or c) Hose intended for use in automotive applications or hose intended for use in conned areas. d) Hose assemblies that are investigated under Gas Hose Connectors for Portable Outdoor Gas-Fired Appliances, ANSI Z21.54. 2 General 2

25、.1 Units of measurement 2.1.1 If a value for measurement is followed by a value in other units in parentheses, the second value may be only approximate. The rst stated value is the requirement. 2.2 Undated references 2.2.1 Any undated reference to a code or standard appearing in the requirements of

26、this standard shall be interpreted as referring to the latest edition of that code or standard. DECEMBER 15, 2014 LP-GAS HOSE - UL 21 5UL COPYRIGHTED MATERIAL NOT AUTHORIZED FOR FURTHER REPRODUCTION OR DISTRIBUTION WITHOUT PERMISSION FROM UL CONSTRUCTION 3 Tube and Cover 3.1 The tube or lining of a

27、hose shall be made from an elastomeric material such as synthetic rubber, thermoplastic, or thermoplastic elastomer of the oil-resistant type. For hose up to and including the 2-in (50.8 mm) size, a similar elastomeric cover may be employed but is not required if the outer braid is impregnated with

28、a rubber cement or compound. For hose larger than the 2-in size, an elastomeric cover shall be employed. A tube or a cover shall be smooth, of uniform thickness, free from defects in workmanship, and free from pitting, blisters, or other imperfections. Intentional pricking of a cover shall not be co

29、nsidered an imperfection. This requirement is not intended to exclude the use of a corrugated cover. Exception: In the case of a coextruded multilayer tube or cover, the entire tube or cover will be used in all applicable tests, rather than the individual layers. 4 Reinforcement 4.1 A reinforcement

30、shall be provided and shall be of cotton, synthetic bers, or corrosion-resistant material such as stainless steel, or any combination thereof, evenly and rmly applied over the tube. The ply or plies shall be impregnated with a rubber compound which shall cause the plies to adhere rmly to each other

31、and to the tube and cover. 5 Inside Diameter 5.1 The internal diameter of a hose shall be equal to the nominal diameter 1/32 in (0.8 mm) for sizes up to and including 3/4 in (19.1 mm), and 1/16 in (1.6 mm) for larger sizes. 5.2 A tapered plug gauge of wood or metal having a taper of 3/8 in per ft (3

32、1.3 mm/m) marked to indicate variation of 1/64 in (0.4 mm) in diameter, or a set of wood or metal plug gauges, straight or ball type, in increments no greater than 0.01 in (0.3 mm) for hoses in sizes 1 in (25.4 mm) and less and 0.02 in (0.5 mm) for hoses in sizes greater than 1 in (25.4) mm), or in

33、some cases, see 5.3, an expanding ball gauge and micrometer or other equivalent means to accurately measure the expanded ball, is to be used. 5.3 The end of the hose is to be cut square. If a tapered plug gauge is used, the plug gauge is to be inserted in the hose sample until a close t is obtained

34、without forcing. The diameter of the gauge at the end of the sample, to the nearest 1/64 in (0.4 mm), is to be recorded as the internal diameter of the hose. If a set of straight or ball-type plug gauges is used, the diameter of the gauge, which when inserted in the hose sample gives a close t witho

35、ut forcing, is to be recorded as the internal diameter of the hose. If the end of a wire-braided hose is constricted or ared, the inside diameter is to be measured far enough from the end to be representative of the inside diameter by means of an expanding ball gauge.

37、r skiving machine outlined in the Practice for Rubber-Preparation of Product Pieces for Test Purposes from Products, ASTM D3183, is to be used for removing irregularities in specimens. The abrasive wheel of a buffing machine is to be No. 30 to 60 grit; and the diameter and rotary velocity of the whe

38、el are to be such that it will have a peripheral speed of 4000 700 ft per min (20.3 3.6 m/s). The machine is to be provided with a slow feed to avoid overheating of the specimen. 6.3 A dial micrometer graduated to 0.001 in (0.025 mm) which exerts a load of 80 85 g by means of a weight is to be used.

39、 The load is to be applied through a at contact foot 0.25 0.01 in (6.4 0.25 mm) in diameter. 6.4 One piece, about68i n(150 200 mm) in length, taken from the sample selected for physical and detail tests, is to be used in determining the thickness of the lining and cover in accordance with the follow

40、ing. 6.5 A strip, about68i n(150 200 mm) in length and 1 in (25.4 mm) in width, or as close to a 1-in width as possible from small diameter hose, is to be cut from the hose, and the rubber part separated from the plies. In case the thickness of the part is not uniform around the circumference of the

41、 hose, the strip is to be cut from the thinnest portion of the sample. 6.6 The strip specimen is to be buffed or skived to remove the impressions left by the fabric or braid or other surface irregularities, using the buffing or skiving machine described in 6.2. A series of ve thickness measurements

42、are to be taken within the area from which the impressions have been removed, and the maximum reading obtained is to be taken as the thickness of the rubber part. 7 Assembly Couplings 7.1 Each end of an assembly shall be provided with a metal-connecting coupling consistent with the service for which

43、 the connector is designed. 7.2 Aluminum shall not be used in combination with copper or copper alloy. 7.3 A part made of drawn-brass or machined from brass rod, containing more than 15 percent zinc shall withstand, without cracking, the Moist Ammonia-Air Stress Cracking Test, Section 20. 7.4 End-co

44、nnecting couplings shall be of corrosion-resistant metal or of steel provided with a protective coating having corrosion-resistant qualities at least equivalent to those of the coatings specied in 7.5. 7.5 Cadmium plating shall not be less than 0.0003 in (0.008 mm) thick, and zinc plating shall not

45、be less than 0.0005 in (0.013 mm) thick. However, on parts where threads constitute the major portion of the area, the cadmium or zinc plating shall not be less than 0.00015 in (0.0038 mm) thick.

46、R DISTRIBUTION WITHOUT PERMISSION FROM UL 7.6 A standard LP-Gas cylinder valve connecting tting shall comply with the Standard for Compressed-Gas Cylinder Valve Outlet and Inlet Connections, ANSI/CGA V-1. 7.7 A compression-type tubing tting shall not be used when it utilizes a slip-on ring or sleeve

47、 or a tting requiring the use of a gasket to obtain a gas-tight joint. Exception: This requirement is not applicable when a gas-tight joint can be obtained without the use of seal material as in the case of a gasket or an O-ring used as a secondary seal. 7.8 Pipe threads shall be in accordance with

48、the Standard for Pipe Threads, General Purpose (Inch), ANSI/ASME B1.20.1. 7.9 A hose assembly shall not be constructed with end ttings that are capable of connecting an appliance with a female CGA 600 connection to a LP-Gas cylinder larger than 2-1/2 pound (1 kg) water capacity.
