6 Apparatus
6.1 Constant Temperature Oven
6.1.1 The constant temperature oven must have
sufficient capacity to accommodate the specimens and
control the temperature within ± 3°C (± 5°F).
6.1.2 See Figure 1 for test set-up.
Figure 1
Test Set-Up
6.2 Nitrogen Supply
6.2.1 The supply of nitrogen must have a pressure
regulator to control the pressure to the specimens
accurately.
6.2.2 The nitrogen supply must include an instrument
for monitoring pressure to within 2% of the test range
(650 kPa, 94 psi).
6.3 Submersion Tank — The submersion tank is used
for observing leakage of nitrogen from the fitting
connection. (See Figure 2.) It consists of a container
capable of holding enough isopropyl alcohol to allow
the specimen to be submerged 25 ± 5 mm (1 ± .2 in)
below the fluid surface at a 45° ± 5° angle.

7 Safety Precautions
WARNING: This test method will subject test
specimens to conditions that may exceed the
normal performance ratings of the products
under evaluation. Adequate precautions must
be taken to prevent injury to the person
conducting the test.
8 Test Specimens and Conditioning
8.1 Sample Size — Test at least three specimens at
each test condition.
8.2 Specimen Tubing Length — At least 150 mm (6
in).
8.3 Specimen Surface — All surfaces of the specimens
shall be free of visible flaws, scratches, or other
imperfections, unless typically found on a
representative sample of the product.
8.4 All specimens must be conditioned for a minimum
of one hour in an air environment of 23° ± 2.8°C (73° ±
5°F) prior to being subjected to test.
9 Test Procedure
9.1 A representative specimen must be assembled and
should accompany the test specimens during the heat
cycle but will be used for the sole purpose of
monitoring temperature.
NOTE: The representative specimen must be of the same size
and type as the test specimens being tested. The representative
specimen shall not be pressurized during any portion of the
test.
9.1.1 Insert a temperature probe into the center of the
representative fitting specimen. Ensure that the
temperature probe is sealed from the oven environment
to prevent any of the heated air from entering the
specimen. (See Figure 3.)
Figure 3
Placement of Probe
9.1.2 Place the representative specimen among the test
specimens to monitor temperature during the heat cycle.
9.2 Assemble the test specimens in accordance with
manufacturer’s specifications. The test specimens shall
be as described in Section 8. A seal cap shall also be
attached to allow the specimen to be pressurized.

9.3 Submerge each test specimen as shown in Figure
2, and subject it to the specified pressure for the 23°C
(73°F) column based on tube size as shown in Table 1.
(See Appendix 1.) Observe the fitting connection for
leakage for a minimum of one minute. Record the
leakage results in the Proof Test area of the Test Data
Sheet. (See Related Information 1.) This is a proof test
to determine the integrity of the fitting connection
before it is subjected to a heat cycle.
9.3.1 If excessive leakage (more than can be humanly
counted) occurs, stop the test, and record as excessive
leakage on the Test Data Sheet. (See Related
Information 1.)
9.4 Condition the specimens to 75°C (167°F) by
placing the specimens into the oven (see Figure 1)
while subjecting them to the specified pressure for that
temperature and tube size as shown in Table 1. (See
Appendix 1.)
NOTE: More than one specimen may be conditioned
simultaneously. Only fittings with the same test pressure and
temperature should be conditioned simultaneously. Specimens
must be leak tested individually.
9.4.1 The specimens shall remain in the oven 15
minutes after it has stabilized to the specified
temperature.
9.4.2 Release nitrogen pressure from the specimens,
remove from the oven, and allow to cool to room
temperature 23° ± 2.8°C (73° ± 5°F). Do not disturb the
specimens while cooling.
9.4.3 After the temperature of the specimens has
reached room temperature, allow the specimens to
remain undisturbed for 15 additional minutes before
leak testing.
9.5 Submerge each specimen as shown in Figure 2,
and pressurize to the specified pressure for the 23°C
(73°F) temperature. Observe the fitting connection for
leakage for a minimum of one minute.
9.6 Release the pressure in the specimen, and record
the results on the Test Data Sheet. (See Related
Information 1.)
NOTE: The release of pressure from the specimen when
removing from the oven and from the submersion tank is for
safety reasons, and compliance is strongly recommended.
9.6.1 Unit of measure for leakage is the number of
nitrogen bubbles per minute.
9.6.2 Leakage from the seal cap is beyond the scope of
this document and is not required to be measured or
recorded.
9.7 After completion of leakage measurement, repeat
Sections 9.4 through 9.6 ten times (cycles) at the same
pressure and temperature level with the same
specimens.
9.7.1 If excessive leakage (more than can be humanly
counted) occurs, stop the test, and record as excessive
leakage on the Test Data Sheet. (See Related
Information 1.)
9.8 After completion of ten cycles, repeat the test with
new specimens starting at Section 9.2, but substituting
for the temperature in Section 9.4, 100°C (212°F) and
125°C (257°F) as shown in Table 1. (See Appendix 1.)
10 Data Accuracy
10.1 Pressure — ± 2%
10.2 Temperature — ± 1°C (± 2°F)
11 Test Data Sheet
The test data sheet shall include the following
information:
11.1 Date tested.
11.2 Operator and test facility.
11.3 Description of items tested, including:
Tubing — Manufacturer, O.D., wall thickness, part
number, and material.
Fitting — Manufacturer, type, size, part number, and
material.
11.4 All of the data described in Section 9.
NOTE: A sample test data sheet is included as Related
Information 1.
