Testingshall be performed with12 in. straight connectors.8.4.1.1 Test each assembly at 239F (115C) and 60 psig

43、(4.14 bar).8.4.1.2 Test the assemblies for 3000 h. If the PEX tubingfails outside the area of the tube gripper prior to 3000 h, replacethe PEX tubing specimen and continue testing of the assembly.Any loss of fluid from the wetted component(s) or failure of thePEX tubing at the tube gripper constitut

44、es a failure. Failure ofnon-wetted components of the fitting does not constitute afailure of the test. The failed component shall be replaced andthe test continued.8.4.1.3 Once each assembly has reached 3000 h, test thefitting at 73F and 180F in accordance with Test MethodD1599, Procedure B and the

Test the specimens in accordance withTest Methods D2765 Method B, with the only deviation: testspecimen preparation. For the purpose of this specification,degree of cross

48、linking (V) is defined as 100 % minus extractpercent equals V. Perform the test in duplicate from a singlefitting.NOTE 2This method provides a test method for measuring the averagedegree of crosslinking over the fitting wall thickness. That, however, doesnot mean that the degree of crosslinking is a

49、llowed to vary outside thelimits for the grade in question at any part of the fitting. In case ofdisagreement, strips of the same thickness, 0.004 in. (0.1 mm), can betaken in tangential, axial, or radial direction at any angle section or wallthickness depth, or both, etc. to measure the degree of crosslinking.TABLE 1 Compression Set Maximum %O-ring Cross-SectionmmMaximumCompression Set%3.0to4.0 40$ 4.0 35TABLE 2 Fitting DimensionsSize, in.
