UL/ULC Listed Red Thread®11 A Piping System <br />SPECIFICATION GUIDE <br />Primary Piping <br />SECTION 1 - Scope <br />This section covers the use of fiberglass reinforced plastic <br />(FRP) pipe for single wall fuel handling and fuel handling vent <br />and vapor applications including gasoline, unleaded gasoline, <br />gasoline/alcohol mixtures, bio -diesel, DEF and diesel up to <br />150°F and 250 psig cyclic pressure. <br />SECTION 2 - General Conditions <br />2.01 Coordination - Material furnished and work <br />performed under this section shall be coordinated with the <br />related work and equipment specified under other sections, <br />i.e. Valves, Flexible Connectors, Equipment. <br />2.02 Governing Standards - Except as modified or <br />supplemented herein, all materials and construction methods <br />shall comply with and be tested in accordance with the <br />following standards and test methods: <br />Standards and Test Methods: <br />UL971 <br />2004 <br />Standard for Nonmetallic Underground Piping for Flam- <br />mable Liquids <br />ASTM <br />Standard Classification for Machine -Made "Fiberglass" <br />D2310 <br />(Glass Fiber Reinforced Thermosetting Resin) Pipe <br />ASTM <br />Standard practice for obtaining Hydrostatic or Pressure <br />D2992 <br />Design Basis for "Fiberglass" (Glass Fiber Reinforced <br />Thermosetting Resin) Pipe and Fittings <br />2.03 Operating Conditions - In addition to the above <br />listed minimum design requirements, the system shall meet <br />the following minimum operating conditions: <br />a. Operating Pressure <br />b. Fluid Conveyed <br />c. Test Pressure <br />2.04 Quality Assurance - Pipe manufacturer's quality <br />program shall be in compliance with ISO 9001 and/or API Q1. <br />2.05 Delivery. Storage, and Handling - Pipe and fittings <br />shall be protected from damage due to impact and point <br />loading. Pipe shall be properly supported to avoid damage <br />due to flexural strain. The contractor shall not allow dirt, <br />debris or other extraneous materials to get into pipe and <br />fittings. All factory machined areas shall be protected from <br />sunlight until installed. <br />2.06 Acceptable Manufacturers - NOV Fiber Glass <br />Systems, 501-568-4010, or approved equal. <br />Section 3 - Material and Construction <br />3.01 2"-4" Pipe - The pipe shall be manufactured by <br />the filament winding process using an amine cured epoxy <br />thermosetting resin to impregnate strands of continuous <br />glass filaments, which are wound around a mandrel at a <br />543/4" winding angle under controlled tension. The pipe <br />shall be heat cured and the cure shall be confirmed using a <br />Differential Scanning Calorimeter. <br />Pipe shall be supplied with a T.A.B." (Threaded and <br />Bonded) ends. <br />Pipe shall have a minimum continuous cyclic pressure <br />rating of 125 psig at 150OF in accordance with ASTM D2992, <br />Procedure A or UL 971 pressure rating. <br />All pipe shall be 100% hydrotested at the factory before <br />shipment at a minimum pressure of 255 psig and shall be <br />UL971-2004 Listed and labeled. <br />3.02 ASTM D2310 Classifications (at 73.41F) <br />2" - 3" RTRP-1 1 AF <br />4" RTRP-1 1 AH <br />(Mechanical properties cell classifications shown are <br />minimums.) <br />3.03 Fittinas - All fittings shall be manufactured using <br />the same type of material as the pipe. Fittings may be <br />manufactured either by compression molding, filament <br />winding, resin transfer molding or contact molding methods. <br />All fittings, adapter, and sump penetrations shall be UL971- <br />2004 Listed. <br />Fittings shall be adhesive bonded matched tapered bell <br />and spigot. <br />3.04 Connections - Connections to flex connectors or <br />other piping materials shall be made by the use of NPT <br />(National Pipe Thread) threaded adapters or flanges bonded <br />to the FRP piping system. <br />3.05 Sump Penetrations - Sump penetrations shall be <br />made by means of a permanently bonded FRP coupling. The <br />coupling shall be capable of adjusting for the slope of the <br />piping system entering or exiting the sump wall. <br />3.06 Adhesives - Adhesives shall be manufacturer's <br />standard for the piping system specified. <br />www.fgspipe.com • fgspipe@nov.com <br />NW Fiber Glass -Systems <br />
