Impact Testing Machine for Thermoplastic and Flexible Metal Pipes

It is important to determine the quality and durability of the pipes used in the underground installation of gas stations, because the safety and performance of these pipes are critical for the operation of the stations and the protection of the environment. Therefore, the Impact Tester for Thermoplastic and Flexible Metal Pipes, designed in accordance with the EN 14125 standard, is a tool specially developed to test the impact resistance of such pipes.

The EN 14125 standard establishes specific requirements and methods for testing underground plumbing pipes used in petrol stations. The impact tester designed in accordance with this standard is used to perform impact tests of thermoplastic and flexible metal pipes. These tests evaluate how pipes will perform at low temperatures (-20°C and -40°C), simulating a variety of weather conditions that may be encountered in real-world conditions.

Key features of the impact tester include:

• Possibility to provide an environment suitable for low temperatures such as -20°C and -40°C for testing samples

• A flat surface for testing samples

• Using 50mm hemispherical striker and 0.5kg weight

• Manual range adjustment up to 1.8m to adjust testing distance

• Magnetic or automatic release of the dart

• Including training video to ensure users use the device correctly

The impact tester is an important tool for evaluating the durability of thermoplastic and flexible metal pipes used in gas stations. Thanks to this device, it is possible to determine the resistance of these pipes to various weather conditions and environmental influences. As a result, this impact tester designed according to EN 14125 is of great importance for the safety of petrol stations and the protection of the environment.
