Conley's Schedule 90M Pipe
undergoing 30 Minute Fire Endurance Test
Conley Corporation'sInternationally
Certified by ABS & DNV Schedule
90M Piping Systems with Fire Protective Coatings
have PASSED the ASTM F 1173 Fire Endurance Test! This test procedure is
based on the IMO Assembly Resolution A.753(18). This test method
subjects a pipe/fitting sample to a constant 36,011 Btu/(hr-ft2)
net heat flux (up to 1800 degrees F flame temperature) for 30 minutes duration
and then subjects the sample to a 15 minute hydrostatic leak test at 150
psig. This test gives a purchaser of fiberglass pipe and fittings the ability
to determine the fire resistance of a fiberglass piping system when filled
with water. This is just one of the special requirements for offshore platforms
and marine application piping systems.
