PD CEN/TS 1852-2:2026

This standard PD CEN/TS 1852-2:2026 Plastics piping systems for non-pressure underground drainage and sewerage. Polypropylene (PP) is classified in these ICS categories:

• 23.040.01 Pipeline components and pipelines in general
• 23.040.20 Plastics pipes
• 23.040.05 Pipelines and its parts for external sewage systems
• 93.030 External sewage systems

This document gives guidance for the assessment of conformity of materials, products, joints and assemblies in accordance with the applicable part(s) of the EN 1852 series intended to be included in the manufacturer’s quality plan as part of the quality management system and for the establishment of certification procedures. NOTE 1 The quality management system is expected to conform to or be no less stringent than the relevant requirements in EN ISO 9001 [1]. NOTE 2 If third-party certification is involved, the certification body is expected be accredited to EN ISO/IEC 17065 [2] or the EN ISO/IEC 17021 series [3], as applicable. NOTE 3 In order to help the reader, a basic test matrix is given in Annex A. In conjunction with EN 1852 1 this document is applicable to solid wall piping systems made of polypropylene (PP) intended to be used for: — non-pressure underground drainage and sewerage outside the building structure (application area code “U”), and — non-pressure underground drainage and sewerage for both buried in ground within the building structure (application area code “D”) and outside the building structure. This is reflected in the marking of products by “U” and “UD”.
