Description

This standard describes bolted sleeve-type couplings, reducing or transition couplings, and flanged coupling adapters (couplings) used to join plain-end pipe. Couplings may be manufactured from carbon steel, stainless steel, or ductile iron and are intended for use in systems conveying water. This standard describes nominal coupling sizes 1/2 in. (13 mm) and larger. The purpose of this standard is to provide the minimum requirements for couplings of plain-end pipe, including requirements for materials, design, testing and inspection, installation, and shipping. This standard can be referenced in documents for purchasing the described couplings. The stipulations of this standard apply when this document has been referenced.

9	Foreword I. Introduction. I.A. Background. This standard describes bolted sleeve-type couplings, reducing or transition couplings, and flanged coupling adapters used to join plain-end pipe. It also includes materials of construction, inspection, and testing. I.B. History. The first edition of ANSI/AWWA C219 was approved by the AWWA Board of Directors on June 23, 1991. Subsequent editions were approved on June 15, 1997, Jan. 21, 2001, Feb. 12, 2006, Jan. 23, 2011, and Jan. 14, 2017. This edition was approved o I.C. Acceptance. In May 1985, the US Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) entered into a cooperative agreement with a consortium led by NSF International (NSF) to develop voluntary third-party consensus standards and a certification program for direct
10	II. Special Issues. II.A. Advisory Information on Product Application. Bolted sleeve-type couplings have been used for joining plain-end pipe since the latter part of the nineteenth century. Currently, there are several manufacturers that produce these couplings. Though deta II.B. Chlorine and Chloramine Degradation of Elastomers. The selection of materials is critical for water service and distribution piping in locations where there is a possibility that elastomers will be in contact with chlorine or chloramines. Documented
11	II.C. Gasket Degradation Study. A pipe gasket, having the hardness of a compressed elastomer with a large mass relative to the small, exposed surface area, experiences minimal degradation. This was validated in a research paper reported in the Journal AWW III. Use of This Standard. It is the responsibility of the user of an AWWA standard to determine that the products described in that standard are suitable for use in the particular application being considered. III.A. Purchaser Options and Alternatives. The following items should be provided by the purchaser
12	III.B. Modification to Standard. Any modification of the provisions, definitions, or terminology in this standard must be provided by the purchaser. IV. Major Revisions. Major revisions made to the standard in this edition include the following:
