23、e a liquid saturated medium as a primary means of stor-ing or treating human excreta or human excreta mixed with other organic household materials. Its purpose is to establish minimum materials, design and construction, and performance testing and evaluation require-ments for these devices. Minimum

24、literature requirements to be supplied by manufacturers to authorized rep-resentatives and owners are also specified. In this edition of NSF/ANSI 41, the following was revised: Issue 5: Normative References were reviewed and updated through the ballot of this issue. ANSI/NSF 41 was developed by the

25、NSF Joint Committee on Wastewater Technology using the consensus process described by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI). ANSI prohibits the inclusion of commercial terms and conditions, such as manufacturers warranties and guarantees, in product standards. However, the NSF Joint Commi

26、ttee on Wastewater Technology has histori-cally believed strongly that all certifiers of NSF/ANSI 41 systems should have certification program policies that contain several key elements, including requirements for warranties. It is the Joint Committees belief that these key elements provide valuable

27、 assurance of long-term performance as well as protection of public health and the environment. To emphasize the Joint Committees convictions on this issue, two annexes, which are not part of this Standard, are included for informational purposes and guidance. These annexes are intended to establish

28、 a uniform program by which products meeting the scope of this Standard should be cer-tified. Annex A provides the key elements of a certification program, and annex B is a sample warranty. At NSF, both annexes have been adopted as NSF/ANSI 41 certification program policies. Suggestions for improvem

29、ent of this Standard are welcome. Comments should be sent to Chair, Joint Com-mittee on Wastewater Technology, c/o NSF International, Standards Department, PO Box 130140, Ann Ar-bor, Michigan 48113-0140, USA. 2The information contained in this Foreword is not part of this American National Standard

31、 is intentionally blank. 9 2011 NSF NSF/ANSI 41 2011 NSF/ANSI Standard for Wastewater Technology Non-liquid saturated treatment systems 1 General 1.1 Purpose The purpose of this Standard is to establish minimum materials, design and construction, and performance requirements for non-liquid saturated

32、 treatment systems. It is intended to protect public health and the environment as well as minimize nuisance factors. This Standard also specifies the minimum literature that manufacturers shall supply to authorized representatives and owners. 1.2 Scope This Standard contains minimum requirements fo

33、r treatment systems that do not utilize a liquid saturated media as a primary means of storing or treating human excreta or human excreta mixed with other organic household materials. It addresses treatment systems that treat both solid and liquid waste, as well as those that only treat solid waste.

34、 Management methods for the end products of these systems are not addressed by this Standard. System components covered under other NSF or NSF/ANSI standards or criteria shall also comply with the requirements contained in those other standards. This Standard shall in no way restrict new system desi

35、gns, provided such designs meet the minimum specifications described herein. 1.3 Systems classification For the purpose of this Standard, systems are classified according to the use environment for which they are intended to be installed. The systems classifications identified in this Standard are r

36、esidential systems, day-use park systems, and cottage systems. Performance testing and evaluation requirements for each of these systems classifications are described herein. 2 Normative references The following documents contain provisions that, through reference in this text, constitute provisions

37、 of this Standard. At the time of publication, the indicated editions were valid. All standards are subject to revision, and parties are encouraged to investigate the possibility of applying the recent editions of the standards indicated below. American Public Health Association (APHA), American Wat

38、er Works Association (AWWA) NOTE Periodic cleaning or replacement of components refers to those procedures which are specified by the manufacturer as necessary within two years of system installation. b) visual inspection and sampling as required by the manufacturer in the operation and maintenance

39、manual; and c) removal (manually or by pumping) of collected residuals and end products as required by the manufacturer in the operation and maintenance manual. 5.8 Failure sensing and signaling equipment 5.8.1 Systems rated for day-use and residential systems rated to continuously serve 10 or more

40、people shall possess a mechanism or process capable of detecting failures of electrical and mechanical components critical to the treatment processes and delivering a discernable visible and audible signal to notify the owner of the failure. These same systems shall also possess a mechanism or proce

41、ss capable of detecting a high water condition and delivering a visible and audible signal to notify the owner that the water level is above normal operating specifications. 5.8.2 The visual and auditory signals shall continue to be functional in the event of an electrical, mechanical, or hydraulic

42、malfunction of the system. 2011 NSF NSF/ANSI 41 - 2011 14 5.9 Flow design Systems shall have a designated flow-path that is reflective of the entire treatment process. During periods of normal system operation, as well as periods of system and component malfunction, the design and construction of th

43、e system shall preclude alternative flow-paths and prevent the discharge of liquids and solids from an opening external to the designated flow-path. 5.10 Data plate and service label 5.10.1 A permanent and legible data plate shall be placed on all systems at a location accessed during maintenance cy

44、cles and inspections. A second data plate shall be affixed to the front of the electrical control box, if applicable. The data plates shall include: a) manufacturers name, address, and telephone number; b) model number; c) serial number (required on one data plate only); d) rated capacity of the sys

45、tem; e) the system classification(s) as determined with the performance testing and evaluation requirements described herein; and f) a statement that refers to the product literature for all maintenance and service requirements. An additional data plate, or label, or sticker shall be prominently dis

46、played for the user of the system. It shall include: a) a detailed description of the type, volume, and frequency that bulking agents and other additives are to be added to the system; b) a detailed description of the types of food (in terms of vegetable matter, oil and grease, and meat/animal mater

47、ial) the system is capable of handling (provided the system is designed to handle food wastes); and c) a brief description of common items that should and should not be added to the system. 5.10.2 A clearly visible label or plate that provides instructions for obtaining service shall be permanently

48、located near the failure signal, if applicable (see 5.8.1). The label or plate shall contain at a minimum the manufacturers name, address, and telephone number. 5.11 Pest control Devices shall be fabricated to prevent entry of insects into any component in which biological activity is intended to oc

49、cur, when installed and operated according to the manufacturers instructions. Entry points where wastes are intended to be deposited under normal usage shall be exempt from this requirement. 2011 NSF NSF/ANSI 41 - 2011 15 6 Product literature 6.1 Owners manual Each system shall be accompanied by a manufacturer-prepared owners manual. The manufacturer or authorized representative shall provide the manual to the owner at the time of system installation. The manual shall be written so as to be easily understood by the intended reader and shall includ
