Influence of metallic materials on water intended for human consumption - Dynamic rig test for assessment of metal release - Part 1: Design and operation

This European Standard specifies a procedure to determine the release of metals from metallic materials used in construction products intended to come into contact with drinking water. The test can be used for three purposes: a) Assess a material as a reference material for a category of materials using the results of several investigations in different waters covering a broad range of water compositions. b) Assess a material for approval by way of comparative testing. c) Obtain data on the interaction of local water with a material.
