Summary of Test Method4.1 A sample of eight gasketed conduit bells of the samenominal diameter are prepared from typical production stock ofthe conduit manufacturer. An aluminum s

9、pigot mandrel madeto the specifications of Annex A1 for the conduit size beingtested is inserted into each of the eight gasketed conduit bellspecimens by means of a compression tester and the jointsystem assembly force is recorded for each specimen. Themean and standard deviation of the sample of ei

10、ght recordedassembly forces is then calculated and recorded.4.2 Any variation in the type of gasket, spigot chamfer, orjoint lubricant specified by the manufacturer constitutes achange in the gasketed conduit joining system and requires thata new sample of eight specimens be tested.5. Significance a

11、nd Use5.1 The assembly force of a conduit joining system is onemeasure of the ease of which the conduit system can beassembled and installed in the field. This test method providesa means by which to quantify the assembly force of gasketedconduit joining systems. The results of the testing can be us

12、edto compare and categorize the assembly force of differentdesigns of gasketed conduit joining systems.5.2 This test method is not intended for use as a qualitycontrol test.5.3 This test method can be used for comparison of gasketedconduit joining systems on the basis of assembly force. Noinformatio

13、n about joint sealing performance can be obtainedfrom the use of this test method.5.4 This test method covers all plastic conduit with push-onjoints that use flexible elastomeric gaskets located in the bell toprovide the joint seal.5.5 This test method is also applicable to all fittings that arefabr

EXAMPLE OF TYPICAL JOINT ASSEMBLY FORCE TEST RESULTX1.1 The graph in Fig. X1.1 is an example of a force versustime plot during an assembly of a gasket

42、ed pipe or conduitjoint. In this example, force is expressed in terms of percent offull scale and time is read from right to left.X1.2 The significant“ events” on the force versus time plothave been labeled with the letters“ A” through “E.” Thefollowing explains what is happening at these points:X1.

43、2.1 AThis shows the spigot mandrel beginning itstravel and before it has reached the gasket.X1.2.2 BThis shows the peak force generated as themandrel compresses the gasket primary seal.X1.2.3 CThis shows another force generated as the man-drel compresses a gasket protrusion located behind the primar

44、yseal.X1.2.4 DThis shows a force drop-off when the mandreltravel is halted at the preset stop position.X1.2.5 EThis shows the pen returning to the zero forceposition to be ready for the next test.X1.3 This graph is only an example. There is a wide varietyof shapes that assembly force tracings can as

45、sume, dependingon the type of gasket tested. Regardless of the shape of thetracing, the peak force (event “B” in this case) is what shouldbe recorded for purposes of this test method.FIG.
