This standard was first published in 1980. In the first revision, requirements for flexibility and electrical continuity were included. In the swelling test, n-pentane was prescribed as test liquid in place of iso-octane and requirements for tensile strength and accelerated aging were also modified. In this second revision requirement for wire braided rubber hose for domestic/commercial installations have been included. Grip strength of hose, burning behavior and resistance to crushing requirements has been included. Swelling in test liquid requirements has been modified as resistance of liquid to n-pentane requirement. In addition to above, modifications have also been made in scope, proof pressure test and bursting pressure requirement. The hoses covered by this standard are suitable for use in LPG vapor phase and LPG/ air installations. This hose may also be put to ‘wet’ use that is, permanently filled with liquid and in the temperature range from 20 to +60°C. In the preparation of this standard assistance has been derived from ISO 2928: 1986. Rubber hose and hose assemblies for liquefied petroleum gases (LPG), and BS 3212-1991 ‘Specification for flexible rubber tubing, rubber hose and rubber hose assemblies for use in LPG vapor phase and LPG/ air installations’ and BS 4089-1989 ‘Hoses and hose assemblies for liquefied petroleum gases’. A separate standard IS 10908: 1991 has been prepared for flexible rubber tubing for liquefied petroleum gas. This standard contains Clauses 5.2.4, 5.3.3 and 6.1 which call for agreement between the purchaser and the supplier. Clauses 5.5.7 and 5.5.8 are for type 4 hose only and Clause 5.5.6 is for Type 1, Type 2 and Type 3 hoses only. 4 BUREAU OF INDIAN STANDARDS PRODUCT MANUAL PRODUCT CERTIFICATION TITLE: GENERAL DOC: PC-9573 PREPARED BY: ISSUE: 01 DATE: NOV 2013 PAGE: 3 OF 4 APPROVED BY: For the purpose of deciding whether the particular requirement of this standard is complied with, the final value, observed or calculated, expressing the results of a test or analysis, shall be rounded off in accordance with IS 2: 1960 ‘Rules for rounding off numerical values (Revised)’. The number of significant places retained in the rounded off value should be the same as that of the specified value in this standard. 5 BUREAU OF INDIAN STANDARDS PRODUCT MANUAL PRODUCT CERTIFICATION TITLE: GENERAL DOC: PC-9573 ISSUE: 01 DATE: NOV 2013 PREPARED BY: PAGE: 4 OF 4 APPROVED BY: TABLE OF CONTENTS Sections Title Page No. Section 1 Product Description 6-7 1.1 Description of product(s) 6 1.2 Latest Indian Standard Number with product title and number of amendments 6 1.3 List of referred standards 6-7 1.4 Checklist for submission of an application for grant of licence 7 Section 2 Raw materials/ Components 8 2.1 List of important raw materials/components 8 Section 3 Manufacturing process and In-process Quality controls 9-10 3.1 Description of manufacturing process(es) 9 3.2 Infrastructure for production 10 Section 4 Certification criteria 11-12 4.1 Identification of critical requirements 11 4.2 Scheme of testing and inspection 11 4.3 Marking fee rates 11 4.4 Grouping guidelines 11 4.5 Guidelines for scope of licence 11 4.6 Guidelines for inclusion of new varieties 11 4.7 Sample size and Guidelines for drawl of separate samples 12 4.8 Manner of sealing of sample(s) 12 4.9 Dealing with sample remnants 12 4.10 Procedure for destruction of non conforming product 12 Section 5 Inspection and testing 13-16 5.1 Packaging material requirement 13 5.2 List of test equipment/ facilities 13-15 5.3 Test facilities in BIS Labs/ OSLs with testing charges and approximate time 15 5.4 Basis of grant of licence 15 5.5 Details of tests to be carried out in the factory 16 Annex 1 Annexes Check-list for submission of an application for grant of licence 17 6 BUREAU OF INDIAN STANDARDS PRODUCT MANUAL PRODUCT CERTIFICATION TITLE: PRODUCT DESCRIPTION DOC: PC-9573 ISSUE: 01 PREPARED BY: DATE: NOV 2013 PAGE: 1 OF 2 APPROVED BY: SECTION 1: PRODUCT DESCRIPTION 1.1.
