The NG-ImpactFall models are designed to accommodate a wide range of pipe specimen diameters, from φ16 to φ4000 millimeters, allowing for pipe testing across various sizes and applications. This extensive range ensures that the NG-ImpactFall can be used to test small-diameter pipes used in residential plumbing to large-diameter pipes employed in industrial and municipal infrastructure.
For pipes with diameters larger than 500 millimeters, there is a specific requirement to produce a flat specimen with dimensions of 200×200 millimeters for the impact test. This guideline ensures that even the largest pipe sizes can be accurately tested for impact resistance. It does this by providing a standardized specimen size that fits within the tester’s capabilities. The use of a flat specimen for larger pipes allows consistent and reliable testing. In this way, it is ensured that the material’s impact resistance is accurately assessed, regardless of the pipe’s original diameter.
