NSF shall not incur any obligation or liability for damages, including consequential damages, arising out of or in conn

12、ection with the use, interpretation of, or reliance upon this Standard. NSF Standards provide basic criteria to promote sanitation and protection of the public health. Provisions for mechanical and electrical safety have not been included in this Standard because governmental agencies or other natio

13、nal standards-setting organizations provide safety requirements. Participation in NSF Standards development activities by regulatory agency representatives (federal, local, state) shall not constitute their agencys endorsement of NSF or any of its Standards. Preference is given to the use of perform

14、ance criteria measurable by examination or testing in NSF Standards development when such performance criteria may reasonably be used in lieu of design, materials, or construction criteria. The illustrations, if provided, are intended to assist in understanding their adjacent standard requirements.

15、However, the illustrations may not include all requirements for a specific product or unit, nor do they show the only method of fabricating such arrangements. Such partial drawings shall not be used to justify improper or incomplete design and construction. Unless otherwise referenced, the annexes a

24、ents that manufacturers must provide to authorized representatives and owners. This edition of the Standard contains the following revisions: Issue 85 This revision updated the usage pattern specified for nonplumbed pour-through-type batch treatment systems when no manufacturers recommended use patt

25、ern is given. Issue 98 This revision harmonized the structural integrity requirements in Table 5 in NSF/ANSI 42, NSF/ANSI 44 and NSF/ANSI 53. Issue 99 This revision added clarification regarding the maximum number of samples exposed in the Materials evaluation under section 4. Issue 100 This revisio

26、n added criteria for utilizing a treatment train approach for the evaluation of a system containing multiple, sequential treatment technologies. Issue 101 This revision clarified the sampling requirements for the cyst reduction tests under NSF/ANSI 53 and 58. This Standard was developed by the NSF J

27、oint Committee on Drinking Water Treatment Units using the consensus process described by the American National Standards Institute. Suggestions for improvement of this Standard are welcome. This Standard is maintained on a Continuous Maintenance schedule and can be opened for comment at any time. C

31、ce of point-of-use and point-of-entry drinking water treatment systems that are designed to reduce specific health-related contaminants in public or private water supplies. Such systems include point-of-entry drinking water treatment systems used to treat all or part of the water at the inlet to a r

32、esidential facility or a bottled water production facility, and includes the material and components used in these systems. This Standard also specifies the minimum product literature and labeling information that a manufacturer shall supply to authorized representatives and system owners, as well a

33、s the minimum service-related obligations that the manufacturer shall extend to system owners. 1.2 Scope The point-of-use and point-of-entry systems addressed by this Standard are designed to be used for the reduction of specific substances that may be present in drinking water (public or private).

34、These substances are considered established or potential health hazards. They may be microbiological, chemical, or particulate (including filterable cysts) in nature. It is recognized that a system may be effective in controlling one or more of these contaminants, but systems are not required to con

35、trol all. Activated carbon filter systems covered by this Standard are not intended to be used with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after the system. 1.3 Alternate materials, designs, and construction While specific materials, desi

36、gns, and construction may be stipulated in this Standard, systems that incorporate alternate materials, designs, and construction may be acceptable when it is verified that such systems meet the applicable requirements stated herein. 1.4 Minimum requirements A system as defined in this standard shal

37、l meet the applicable requirements of 4, 5, 6, and 8, plus at least one performance claim as described in 7. A component as defined in this standard shall meet the requirements of 4 and 8. If the component is pressure-bearing, it shall also meet the applicable requirements of 5. A commercial modular

38、 system as defined in this standard shall meet the applicable requirements of 4, 5, 6, and 8, plus at least one performance claim as described in 7. Manifolds of commercial modular systems shall meet the requirements of 4, 5 (if pressure bearing), and 8, and shall be evaluated as stand-alone compone

39、nts. Manifolds shall have a minimum internal diameter such that the water velocity in the manifold will not exceed 3 m (10 ft) per second (which can be calculated based upon the system flow rate 2015 NSF NSF/ANSI 53 2015 2 and the manifold internal diameter). Individual modular elements evaluated as

40、 a manifold and modular element combination shall meet the applicable requirements of 4, 5, 6, and 8, plus at least one performance claim as described in 7. 1.5 Chemical and mechanical reduction performance claims 1.5.1 All performance claims shall be verified and substantiated by test data generate

41、d under the requirements of this Standard. 1.5.2 When performance claims are made for substances not specifically addressed in the scope of this Standard or for those substances not specifically addressed but falling under the scope of NSF/ANSI 53, those claims not specifically addressed in the Stan

42、dard shall be so identified. 1.6 Treatment train A system that contains multiple, sequential treatment technologies for a performance claim under this Standard shall meet the applicable requirements as described in Annex I. 1.7 Standard review This Standard shall be reviewed at least once every five

43、 years. The review shall be conducted by the NSF Joint Committee on Drinking Water Treatment Units. 2 Normative references The following documents contain provisions that constitute requirements of this Standard.
