Scope

This Standard specifies the properties of ethylene propylene diene rubbers (EPDM) used in the manufacture of unglazed collectors intended for solar heating of swimming pools. The Standard is applicable to materials used for collectors which take the form of tubing, or absorber strips comprising water passages joined by a web.
The requirements of this Standard are based on the assumption that the solar pool heating systems in which these materials are used will be installed in accordance with AS 3634, and that the pool water will be maintained in accordance with AS 3633.
