17、 of the Member States of the EU or EFTA; b) it should be noted that, while awaiting the adoption of verifiable European criteria, existing national regulations concerning the use and/or the characteristics of these products remain in force. NOTE Conformity with the document does not confer or imply
18、acceptance or approval of the products in any of the Member States of the EU or EFTA. The use of these products covered by this document is subject to regulation or control by National Authorities. BS EN 15797:2010EN 15797:2010 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard is applicable to iron based coagula
19、nts (iron (III) chloride, iron (III) chloride sulfate and iron (III) sulfate liquid) used directly or for the production of formulations for treatment of water for swimming pools. It describes the characteristics of iron based coagulants and specifies the requirements and the corresponding test meth
20、ods for iron based coagulants. It gives information on their use in swimming pool water treatment. General information on iron based coagulants is given in Annex A. It also determines the rules relating to safe handling and use (see Annex B). 2 Normative references The following referenced documents

Limits are given for impurities commonly pres
24、ent in the products. Depending on the raw material and the manufacturing process other impurities may be present and, if so, this shall be notified to the user and when necessary to relevant authorities. NOTE Users of these products should check the national regulations in order to clarify whether t
25、hey are of appropriate purity for treatment of water for swimming pools, taking into account water quality, required dosage, contents of other impurities and additives used in these products not stated in these product standards. Limits have been given for impurities and chemical parameters where th
26、ese are likely to be present in significant quantities from the current production process and raw materials. If the production process or raw materials lead to significant quantities of other impurities by-products or additives being present, this shall be notified to the user. 4.2 Composition of c
