Full Description

This International Standard specifies a test procedure for determining the fire resistance of hose assemblies with nominal diameters of at least 100 mm.

It serves for proving whether, after the period of fire effect on the test bench specified in ISO 15541, hose assemblies continue to be tight, even when subjected to proof pressure.

Only water is permitted as a test medium. With a view to ensuring maximum safety for both the operating personnel and the test bed in the event of damage to the hose during the test, the use of combustible test media is excluded.
