However, the maximum test pressure may not be more than 2.5 times the pressure determined under § 192.121, at a temperature not less than the pipe temperature during the test. (d) During the test, the temperature of thermoplastic material may not be more than 100°F (38°C), or the temperature at which the material's long-term hydrostatic strength has been determined under the listed specification, whichever is greater.","truncated":false,"body_characters":787}
