scope:

Description

This standard has been created to test point of use and commercial drinking water generating systems that are designed to create potable water from humidity. Critical components of these systems include a condenser, storage tank and disinfection control techniques to address microbiological water contamination.

This standard is not intended to verify chemical, particulate or other water purity claims made by the manufacturer.

Systems may include filtration to reduce chemical and particulate water contamination.

Proper design shall include consideration for the energy efficiency of the atmospheric water generator.

Connections

Pipe threads and other connections shall conform to the applicable standards and local codes.

Potable Connection

A potable water connection inlet is optional for when the water demand exceeds the production rate of air-to-water generation.

Temperature Range

Product water may be produced or dispensed at any temperature.
