7、y.The American Society of Sanitary Engineering is dedicated to the preservation of public health and safety through its guiding principle “Prevention Rather Than Cure”.The ASSEs Standards Program systematically evaluates new technologies through a formal request, and addresses the development and pr

8、omulgation of performance standards designed to safeguard public health and safety.Standards for the performance of components of systems of plumbing are considered by the American Society of Sanitary Engineering to be of great value in the development of improved plumbing systems for the increased

9、protection of public health and safety.To accomplish this, ASSE, through its Product Standards Committee, encourages manufac-turers to develop performance standards and testing procedures for their products. These standards have the consensus of the manufacturers and others who have pertinent intere

10、sts in plumbing systems, and are acceptable to this Society.This standard for water pressure reducing valves is one for which the need was expressed. It was developed by a sub-committee of the ASSE Standards Committee using as a base the standard of the City of Los Angeles, which was originally crea

11、ted by a group which included the major manufacturers of this class of product.Testing procedures and test equipment diagrams have been added to this basic standard to enable uniform testing by testing agencies with adequate facilities and qualified personnel.At the October 1964 Annual Meeting of th

12、e Society, this standard was accepted as an ASSE Standard and assigned the identifying number 1003.Performance standards for systems and devices must be reviewed periodically and upgraded as research, field conditions and experience suggest. The policy of the American Society of Sanitary Engineering

13、 is to review each standard on a five year cycle for revisions or reaffirma-tion. Between such reviews, the Product Standards Committee works with interested groups in obtaining information for study and evaluation for acceptance in upgrading a standard.Although many of the material specifications a

14、re detailed within Section IV of this Standards, iv Water Pressure Reducing Valves for Domestic Water Distribution SystemsASSE #1003 Revised: 2009it is the responsibility of the manufacturer to comply with the requirements of the Safe Drink-ing Water Act, United States Public Law 93-523.The working

15、group which developed this standard revision, was set up within the framework of the Product Standards Committee of the American Society of Sanitary Engineering.Recognition is made of the time volunteered by members of this working group and of the support of the manufacturers who also participated

16、in the meetings for this standard.This standard does not imply ASSEs endorsement of a product which conforms to these requirements.Compliance with this standard does not imply acceptance by any code body.It is recommended that these devices be installed consistent with local codes by qualified and t

17、rained professionals.This standard was promulgated in accordance with procedures developed by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI).This edition of the standard was approved by the ASSE Board of Directors on September 28, 2009, as an ASSE standard.Water Pressure Reducing Valves for Domest

21、ressure (fall-off) of 17.0 psi (117.2 kPa) less than its no-flow set (lock-up) pressure and with the supply pressure maintained at 50.0 psi (344.7 kPa) higher than the reduced flowing pressure.3.7.2 ProcedureInstall the device in the system per Figure 3. Close all downstream valves except valve #5 i

22、n the line to the 1/16 inch (1.6 mm) orifice. Open valve #3 and regulate the supply pressure to a suitable pressure indicated by gauge #3 which shall be maintained throughout the test. Adjust the device to maintain a set pressure of 33.0 psi (227.5 kPa) less than supply pressure. Close valve #5 and

23、slowly open the throttling valve #4 until the reduced pressure gauge #4 is 17.0 psi (117.2 kPa) less than the set pressure and record the rate of flow through the device.3.7.3 CriteriaFailure to flow the required minimum capacity as indicated in Table 2 at 17.0 psi (117.2 kPa) below the no-flow set

24、pressure shall result in a rejection of the device. 3.8 By-Pass Relief Valve Opening Pressure Differential Test (Only required for devices with by-pass relief valve)3.8.1 PurposeAn integral or built-in by-pass relief valve shall be capable of opening to permit a reverse flow of water through the dev

25、ice to prevent a build-up of system pressure by thermal expansion with an increase of reduced pressure not to exceed 10.0 psi (68.9) above the prevailing initial pres-sure at the inlet of the device.3.8.2 ProcedureWith the device installed per Figure 3 and with valves #4, #5 and #6 closed, open the

26、supply valve #3 and regulate the supply pressure at 100.0 psi (689.5 kPa). Open throttling valve #4, purge the system of air and then close valve #4. Record the exact pressure registered on gauge #3. Open valves #6 and #7, then use valve #7 to adjust the pressure shown on gauge #5 to read 5.0 psi (3

27、4.5 kPa) less than the pressure shown on gauge #3. Slowly raise the pressure in the downstream line until the pressure registered by gauge #3 first starts to rise. At this point, observe the pressure registered on gauge #4. The difference between the pressures on gauge #3 and gauge #4 is what is nee

28、ded to start opening the by-pass check relief valve. This pres-sure difference shall not exceed 10.0 psi (68.9 kPa).3.8.3 CriteriaFailure of the by-pass relief valve to open at 10.0 psi (68.9 kPa) pressure differential shall result in a rejection of the device.Water Pressure Reducing Valves for Dome
