    Flexible pipes used in building construction must pass fire resistance tests to ensure safety. The pipes are subjected to 800°C temperatures for 30 minutes while water is circulated inside at maximum service pressure. The outlet water temperature must remain at least 80°C, and no leaks can occur during or after the test. Alternatively, the pipe can be tested with flowing water at 5 bar pressure and then pressure tested at twice the design level.

    (1995)
    Fire testing of flexible pipes
    1. Flexible pipes with end attachments which are required to be of fire-resisting materials, shall be
    subject to a fire for 30 minutes at a temperature of 800oC, while water at the maximum service pressure
    is circulated inside the pipe. The temperature of the water at the outlet shall not be less than 80oC. No
    leak should be recorded during or after the test.

    2. An alternative is to fire test the flexible pipe with flowing water at a pressure of at least 5 bar and
    subsequent pressure test to twice the design pressure.
