For GRP pipes or fittings, the calculated maximum internal water pressure in bars which the pipe or fitting, as manufactured, will withstand, without failure, for 50 years at 23 °C. This pressure is determined by extrapolation of results of long-term pressure tests, taking into account a factor of safety for those nominal service conditions. 3, record 1, English, - maximum%20allowable%20pressure

Pression intérieure maximale d'eau calculée, exprimée en bars, que le tube ou raccord PRV, tel que fabriqué, peut supporter sans rupture, pendant 50 ans à une température de 23 °C. Cette pression est déterminée par extrapolation d'essais de pression de longue durée et prend en compte un coefficient de sécurité pour des conditions nominales de service. 3, record 1, French, - pression%20maximale%20admissible
