What is BS EN 4051 - Characteristics of port connection about?
BS EN 4051 is one of a series of European standards regarding aerospace.
BS EN 4051 specifies the characteristics of port connection for pipe couplings, 60°, spherical, in titanium alloy, for aerospace applications. BS EN 4051 is applicable to 60° spherical tube coupling in titanium alloy defined by the EN 3853 standard, to be mounted with O-ring defined in accordance with the TR 4052.
Who is BS EN 4051 - Characteristics of port connection for?
BS EN 4051 on characteristics of port connection is useful for:
- Aerospace Industry
- Testing agencies involved in the inspection of port connectors
- Defence Industry
- Manufacturers of aerospace equipment and components
- Manufacturers and suppliers of port connectors
Why should you use BS EN 4051 - Characteristics of port connection?
A port connection aids in determining the location at which a pipe is physically welded to a fitting, location up to which the pipe extends into the fitting and the pipe extends inside a fitting, location of a flange face with another flange face, the initial point of a routed segment.
The guidelines provided in BS EN 4051 denoting the required characteristics via a visual representation of port connection for pipe couplings, 60° spherical in titanium alloy, for aerospace applications could aid manufacturers and suppliers to provide an efficient as well as a durable product. Users of the product would benefit examining a product’s quality by referring to BS EN 4051.
