The main changes since the previous edition are:

  • New definition of PB-1 compounds PB-H (homopolymer) and PB-R (copolymers)
  • New set of reference lines (coefficients and diagram)
  • New table containing calculated hoop strength values
  • Recalculation of hoop strength data PB-H and specifying values rounded down to one decimal place
  • Clearer specification of showing conformance to the reference lines
  • Conformance to the reference lines can also be shown using not failed data points running at sufficiently high hoop stress

The new standard reference line for PB-R can be downloaded in “Downloads – Analyzer – Standard reference lines”.

DIN 8075 – “Polyethylene (PE) pipes – PE 80, PE 100 – General quality requirements, testing”

In the new edition have the equations for PE 80 and PE 100 been updated. The reference line for PE 63 has been removed. This change influence the Standard reference lines for DIN 8075 (in the Line Manager of Pipeson Analyzer).

For this reason is a new version (Pipeson Analyzer 3.0.8) with updated Standard reference lines available for download in “Downloads”.
