Designation:F220706(Reapproved 2013)Standard Specification forCured-in-Place Pipe Lining System for Rehabilitation ofMetallic Gas Pipe1This standard is issued under the fixed designation F2207;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 This specification covers requirements and method oftesting for materials,dimensions,hydrostatic burst strength,chemical resistance,adhesion strength and tensile strengthproperties for cured-in-place(CIP)pipe liners installed intoexisting metallic gas pipes,34to 48 in.nominal pipe size,forrenewal purposes.The maximum allowable operating pressure(MAOP)of such renewed gas pipe shall not exceed a pressureof 300 psig(2060 kPa).The cured-in-place pipe liners coveredby this specification are intended for use in pipelines transport-ing natural gas,petroleum fuels(propane-air and propane-butane vapor mixtures),and manufactured and mixed gases,where resistance to gas permeation,ground movement,internalcorrosion,leaking joints,pinholes,and chemical attack arerequired.1.2 The medium pressure(up to 100 psig)cured-in-placepipe liners(Section A)covered by this specification areintended for use in existing structurally sound or partiallydeteriorated metallic gas pipe as defined in 3.2.10.The highpressure(over 100 psig up to 300 psig)cured-in-place pipeliners(Section B)covered by this specification are intended foruse only in existing structurally sound steel gas pipe as definedin 3.2.10.CIP liners are installed with limited excavation usingan inversion method(air or water)and are considered to be atrenchless pipeline rehabilitation technology.The inverted lineris bonded to the inside wall of the host pipe using a compatibleadhesive(usually an adhesive or polyurethane)in order toprevent gas migration between the host pipe wall and the CIPliner and,also,to keep the liner from collapsing under its ownweight.1.2.1 Continued growth of external corrosion,if undetectedand unmitigated,could result in loss of the host pipe structuralintegrity to such an extent that the liner becomes the solepressure bearing element in the rehabilitated pipeline structure.The CIPliner is not intended to be a stand-alone pipe and relieson the structural strength of the host pipe.The operator mustmaintain the structural integrity of the host pipe so that the linerdoes not become free standing.1.3 MPL CIP liners(Section A)can be installed in partiallydeteriorated pipe as defined in 3.2.10.Even for low pressuregas distribution systems,which typically operate at less than 1psig,MPL CIP liners are not intended for use as a stand-alonegas carrier pipe but rely on the structural integrity of the hostpipe.Therefore,the safe use of cured-in-place pipe liningtechnology for the rehabilitation of existing cast iron,steel,orother metallic gas piping systems,operating at pressures up to100 psig,is contingent on a technical assessment of theprojected operating condition of the pipe for the expected 30 to50 year life of the CIP liner.Cured-in-place pipe liners areintended to repair/rehabilitate structurally sound pipelineshaving relatively small,localized defects such as localizedcorrosion,welds that are weaker than required for service,orloose joints(cast iron pipe),where leaks might occur.1.3.1 HPL CIP liners(Section B)are intended for use onlyin existing structurally sound steel gas pipe as defined in3.2.10.HPLCIPliners are not intended for use as a stand-alonegas carrier pipe but rely on the structural integrity of the hostpipe.Therefore,the safe use of cured-in-place pipe liningtechnology for the rehabilitation of existing steel gas pipingsystems,operating at pressures up to 300 psig,is contingent ona technical assessment of the projected operating condition ofthe pipe for the expected 30 to 50 year life of the CIP liner.1.4 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regardedas standard.No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns,if any,associated with its use.It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory requirements prior to use.2.Referenced Documents2.1 ASTM Standards:2D123 Terminology Relating to Textiles1This specification is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee F17 on PlasticPiping Systems and is the direct responsibility of Subcommittee F17.60 on Gas.Current edition approved Aug.1,2013.Published October 2013.Originallyapproved in 2002.Last previous edition approved in 2006 as F2207 06.DOI:10.1520/F2207-06R13.2For referenced ASTM standards,visit the ASTM website,www.astm.org,orcontact ASTM Customer Service at serviceastm.org.For Annual Book of ASTMStandards volume in
