PD CEN/TS 14758-2:2016

What is PD CEN/TS 14758-2 - Plastics piping systems about?

PD CEN/TS 14758-2 discusses plastics piping systems for non-pressure underground drainage and sewerage. PD CEN/TS 14758-2 gives guidance for the assessment of conformity of materials, products, joints, and assemblies in accordance with the applicable part(s) of EN 14758 intended to be included in the manufacturer’s quality plan as part of the quality management system, and for the establishment of certification procedures.

In conjunction with EN 14758-1, PD CEN/TS 14758-2 is applicable to solid wall piping systems made of polypropylene modified with mineral(s) (PP-MD) intended to be used for:

• Non-pressure underground drainage, and sewerage outside the building structure (application area code “U”), and
• Non-pressure underground drainage, and sewerage for both buried in ground within the building structure (application area code “D”), and outside the building structure

This is reflected in the marking of products by “U”, and “UD.” In order to help the reader, a basic test matrix is given in CEN/TS 14758-2.

Who is CEN/TS 14758-2 - Plastics piping systems for?

PD CEN/TS 14758-2 on plastics piping systems for non-pressure underground drainage, and sewerage is useful for:

• Plastic pipe manufacturers
• Pipe specifiers, and installers
• Civil engineers
• Product design engineers
• Contractors
• Local authorities

Why should you use CEN/TS 14758-2 - Plastics piping systems?

PD CEN/TS 14758-2 provides you with exposure conditions, normative limits, evaluation of compliance, assessment uncertainty, and much more. The assessment methods provided by PD CEN/TS 14758-2 ensure to the conformity of materials, products, joints, and assemblies, and ensure reducing the potential health risk of the drainage and sewerage systems field.

With compliance of PD CEN/TS 14758-2, you can enhance the efficacy of piping systems for non-pressure underground drainage, and sewerage, and manufacture a standardized product.
