Sl.No. Synosis Points
1 Sprinkler irrigation system is one of the modern techniques being used for irrigation purpose. With the extensive use of quick coupled polyethylene pipes with sprinkler irrigation system, a need was felt to formulate this standard to include specifications of complete range of quick coupled pipes and fittings designed for use in sprinkler irrigation systems.
2 The standard was published in 2020 as an amalgamation of IS 14151 (Part 1) : 1999 and IS 14151 (Part 2) : 2016
3 a) Option of plastic riser pipe has been provided. b) The thickness of Class-3 (PN 4) pipes with a diameter of 40 mm has been specified as 2 mm to 2.4 mm, in line with current manufacturing practices. c) The test pressure in hydraulic proof test (see 7.2.2.1) has been changed from twice to 1.5 times of the recommended working pressure for Class 3 and Class 4 pipes. d) The requirements for PE resin listed in Table 1 have been revised in accordance with IS 4984. e) The requirements for the tensile test specified in 7.1.4 have been revised in accordance with IS 4984. f) Necessary editorial changes have been made including updating of referred Indian Standards and schematic diagrams given in the standard.
