BIS CERTIFICATION FOR UPVC PIPES FOR AGRICULTURAL PUMP SETS IS 12231:1987

Unplasticized Polyvinyl Chloride (UPVC) pipes are widely used for agricultural pump sets due to their durability, smooth inner surface, and numerous environmental benefits. These pipes are recyclable, have a lower carbon footprint, and require minimal maintenance compared to some other pipe materials.

To ensure the product quality of upvc pipes for agricultural pump sets, the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) has made it mandatory for manufacturers to undergo BIS registration and obtain the BIS ISI mark before selling it in the market. Manufacturers can use the ISI Mark on their products only after obtaining a license from BIS that is granted after BIS registration. The presence of the ISI mark on a product indicates that it complies with BIS's stringent quality standards.

IS 12231-1987 covers unplasticized PVC pipes used in the suction and delivery lines of agriculture pump sets. The Bureau of Indian Standards adopted this Indian Standard on November 25, 1987, after the Civil Engineering Division Council approved the draft finalized by the Sanitary Appliances and Water Fittings Sectional Committee.

This specification specifies the requirements for plain end pipes made of unplasticized polyvinyl chloride for suction and delivery lines of agricultural pump sets that are exposed to the atmosphere and sunlight.

The pipe shall be classified by the pressure ratings (working pressure) at 27°C as follows:
