ASME A112.19.14-2001 pdf download. Six-Liter Water Closets Equipped With a Dual Flushing Device.
The single-ply toilet paper shall first meet both the hsorption and wet tensile strength requirements given in paras. 3.2.5.1.1 and 3.2.5.1.2, respectively.
(a) Test Method. A six-sheet strip of the proposed toilet paper shall be obtained. The paper shall be wrapped snugly around a piece of 2 in. Schedule 40 ‘VC pipe. I he paper shall be slid ott tne pipe. The tube of paper shall be grasped approximately halfway down its length and chII he turned inside out and down over itself. This shall result in a ball approximately 2 in. (51 mm) in diameter The ball (straight e4iges down) shall be dropped into a pan of water. The time it takes for the ball to become fully saturated and sink below the water surface shall be recorded.
(b) Performance Requirement. The paper bail shall sink below the surface in less than 3 sec.
3.2.5.1.2 Wet Tensile Strength
(a) Test Method. A 2 in. Schedule 40 Pvc coupling and union nut shall be used as a frame to hold the toilet paper for the wet tensile strength test. One sheet of the toilet paper on the coupling and the union nut shall be slid over the coupling. The frame shall be inverted and the paper shall be submerged in water for 5 sec. The frame shall then be removed from the water and shall be returned to an upright position. A 0.312 in. (8 mm) diameter steel ball weighing 6.3 ±
0.1 g shall be phtced in the entei of the wet sheet.
(b) Performance Requirement. The sheet shall suppon the steel bail without any evidence of rearing.
3.2.5.2 Test Method. The four 2 in. to 3 in. (51 mm to 76 mm) balls of paper that comply with paras. 3.2.5.1.1 arid 3.2.5.1.2 shall be dropped into the watei directly above the well and shall be allowed to wet out completely. Within 5 sec. after wetting occurs, the bowl shall be flushed. This procedure shall be repeated until three sets of data are obtained. Note whether any paper is left in the bowl. Flush again and collect any papcr that discharges from the outlet.
3.2.5.3 Performance Requirement. No paper shall remain in the well after each initial flush.
3.2.6 Durability Test
3.2.6.1 Test Method. The water closet shall be cycled 15,000 cycles in the full volume flush mode and, after each four full flushes, one reduced flush shall be made followed by 60000 cycles in the reduced volume flush mode.
