About UPVC Pipe Fittings as per IS 13593:1992

When it comes to agricultural pump systems, the market demands standard quality and BIS-certified products for long-term reliability and efficiency. The Standard Quality Mark (ISI Mark) is applied to each product, and only manufacturers holding a valid BIS license are permitted to use the ISI Mark.

The Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) has formulated IS 13593:1992 specifically to regulate the manufacture and performance of UPVC (Unplasticized Polyvinyl Chloride) pipe fittings used in the suction and delivery lines of agricultural pumps.

Specifications outlined in IS 13593:1992 are legally enforceable, and manufacturers must comply to qualify for BIS certification and ISI mark.
