Publication Date: 15 July 2021
Status: active
Page Count: 9
ICS Code (Drinking water): 13.060.20
ICS Code (Materials and articles in contact with foodstuffs): 67.250
scope:

This test method describes procedures for measuring odor and flavor properties of materials which may come into direct contact with municipal drinking water. For this method, "drinking water" will be considered water from the source (for example, river, lake, reservoir) through the municipal distribution system (that is, not including in-home or in-business taps). The focus of this test method is the evaluation of the materials in terms of their potential to transfer odors, flavors, or both to water.

This test method provides sample preparation procedures, methods of sensory evaluation, and a process for interpretation of results.

This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. All materials that come into contact with drinking water are required to be approved through testing by accredited laboratories using NSF/ANSI Standard 61. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.

This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.
