What is BS EN 13742-2 - Test methods for solid set sprinkler systems about?
BS EN 13742-2 is a standard that serves test methods for solid set sprinkler systems, enabling easy water measurement and uniform water distribution in irrigation applications.
BS EN 13742-2 provides a document to check and test, the proper operation and performance of a solid set irrigation system installed according to relevant design documents specified in EN 13742-1.
Who is BS EN 13742-2 - Test methods for solid set sprinkler systems for?
BS EN 13742-2 on test methods for solid set sprinkler systems applies to:
- Irrigation supply departments
- Irrigation engineers
- Irrigation consultants
- Irrigation equipment manufacturers
- Suppliers of irrigation equipment
- Testing houses for irrigation equipment
- Irrigation audit services
Why should you use BS EN 13742-2 - Test methods for solid set sprinkler systems?
Sprinklers with various riser, lateral, and manifold pipes are distributed in a regular pattern over the entire irrigated area in solid set sprinkler irrigation systems. Solid-set Sprinkler systems can be buried or surface-mounted and are "permanent" in the sense that the sprinkler laterals are fixed.
BS EN 13742-2 also provides users guidance on inspection and testing at start-up, including recommendations, preliminary pressurization of main lines and sub-mains, visual inspection, hydraulic inspection, hydraulic measurements, and distribution uniformity measurements, ensuring operability and efficiency in operations.
With obedience and compliance of BS EN 13742-2, users can develop and assess solid set sprinkler systems that ensure high performance, efficiency and longevity in irrigation applications.
