Scope:

This standard provides the minimum performance requirements for components used in portable exchange service programs. The exchange services swap out components as part of general maintenance of the system and replenishment of media. The standard defines the requirements for filter/media tanks (vessels) and other maintenance parts. These requirements are based of the existing requirements for water treatment equipment.

Project need:

To develop a new Joint Canada-U.S. National Standard for Portable Exchange standard for water treatment equipment. Currently there are portable exchange service programs being offered across Canada. These programs replace the media tanks/vessels in water treatment systems. The water treatment product which the exchange components go into are certified and listed as a complete packaged system. However, there are no performance requirements for the components which are used for the exchange. The certified water treatment systems have components from the exchange programs with may or may not comply with the performance requirement of the system. This standard will provide performance criteria for the exchange components.
