Flushing Flow the required rate until water is clear as indicated by no collection of foreign material in burlap bags at
outlets such as hydrants and blow -offs. Flush at flows not less than 390 gpm (1476 Umin) for 4-in. pipe, 880 grim (3331
Umin) for 6-in. pipe, 1560 gpm (5905 Umin) for 8-in. pipe, 2440 gpm (9235 Umin) for 10-in. pipe, and 3520 gpm (13.323
Umin) for 12-in. pipe. When supply cannot produce stipulated flow rates, obtain maximum available.
Hydrostatic: Hydrostatic tests shall be made at not less than 200 psi If 3.8 bar) for 2 hours or 50 psi (3.4 bar) above

static pressure in excess of 150 psi (10.3 bar) for 2 hours.
description
Leakage_ New pipe laid with rubber gasketed joints shall, If the workmanship is satisfactory, have little or no leakage at
the joints. The amount of leakage at the joints shall not exceed 2 quarts per hour (1.89 Uhr) per 100 joints irrespective
of pipe diameter. The leakage shall be distributed over all joints. If such leakage occurs at a few joints, the installation
shall be considered unsatisfactory and necessary repairs made. The amount of allowable leakage spa ified above can
be increased by 1 fluid ounce per Inch valve diameter per hr. (30 mU25 mm/hr) for each metal seated alve isolating the
test section. If dry barrel hydrants are tested with the main valve open so the hydrants are under p sure, an additional
5 ounces per minute (150 mUmin) leakage is permitted for each hydrant -
