5.3.3 Cross-flow check valves
Cross-flow check valves shall not leak more than 35 mL/min (0.01 gpm) out of one supply inlet when the opposite supply inlet is pressurized to 35 kPa (5 psi) with water at 10±6°C (50± 10°F) for 1 mm with the primal-y shut-off valves open and all outlets blocked. This test shall be run before and after the life cycle test specified in Clause 5.6.
5.3.4 Hose assenablies
5.3.4.1 Failure criteria
Hose assemblies shall not fail or leak when tested in accordance with Clauses 5.3.4.2 and 5.3.4.3.
5.3.4.2 Torque
Hose assemblies and threaded connections shall be tested as specified in Clause 5.3.1.3 w,th the threaded
connections tightened to
(a) the torque required to affect the seal; and
(b) 150% of the torque required in Item (a).
5.3.4.3 Burst pressure
Hose assemblies shall be tested at a hydrostatic pressure of 690 kPa (100 psi) for 1 h, followed by a burst pressure test of 2000 kPa (290 psi) for 1 mm using water at 10 ± 6°C (50 ± 10°F),
5.3.5 BalI joints
Shower head, body spray, and hand-held shower assembly ball joints shall not leak in any position more than 35 mLlmin (0.01 gpm) measured over 5 mm when tested at 345 ± 35 kPa (50 ± S psi) flowing.
5.3.6 Diverters
5.3.6.1 Bath and shower
5.3.6.1.1
The rate of the leakage out of the tub spout of bath and shower diverters shall not exceed 400 mL/min
(0.1 gpm) when tested in accordance with Clause 5.3.6.1.2.
5.3.6.1.2
Bath and shower diverters shall be tested for rate of leakage out of the tub spout at 69 kPa (10 psi) flowing pressure, measured between the diverter and the secondary outlet at 300 mm (12 in) from the diverter, with water at 38 ± 6 °C (100 ± 10°F). Measurements shall be taken for 5 mm, beginning 1 mm after the diverter is activated.
5.3.6.2 Kitchen and lavatory
5.3.6.2.1
The rate of leakage out of the spout of kitchen and lavatory side spray diverters shall not exceed 1 1/mm (0.3 gpm) when tested in accordance with Clause 5.3.6.2.2.
5.3.6.2.2
Kitchen and lavatory side spray diverters shall be tested for rate of leakage out of the spout at 140 ± 7 kPa (20 ± 1 psi) and 690 * 7 kPa (100 i 1 psi) flowing pressure with water diverted to the side spray using water at 10 ± 6°C (50 ± 10°F).
