(Amendment)Water quality - General requirements and performance test procedures for water monitoring equipment - Continuous measuring devices
Water quality - General requirements and performance test procedures for water monitoring equipment - Continuous measuring devices
This European Standard specifies general requirements and performance test procedures for portable and fixed position measuring devices (MDs) that are used in an in-line or online operating position to measure physical and chemical determinands in water. It excludes at-line devices, such as chemical test kits, and off-line devices, such as laboratory analysers.
The general requirements include functional facilities that MDs need to meet users’ applications and information that need to be included in associated documents.
The test procedures specify uniform methods to be used when determining key performance characteristics of MDs. The performance tests comprise testing carried out under laboratory and field conditions.
Statistical procedures are defined for evaluation of the test data. It is recognized that for some devices certain test procedures are not applicable.
Example values for performance characteristics for a selection of MDs for monitoring waste water effluents and receiving waters are detailed in Annex A for guidance.
This European Standard requires the manufacturer of a MD to provide more technical data for verification than does EN ISO 15839:2006 [5]. Consequently, EN ISO 15839 will be of greater assistance to manufacturers wishing to characterize a new device whereas this European Standard is more focussed on user requirements for the verification of manufacturer’s claims.

Overview
EN 17075:2018/FprA1 is a European standard developed by CEN that establishes general requirements and performance test procedures for continuous water monitoring equipment. Specifically, this standard applies to both portable and fixed continuous measuring devices (CMDs) used in inline or online positions to assess physical and chemical parameters in various water bodies. This includes wastewater effluents and receiving waters. The standard excludes at-line devices (like chemical test kits) and off-line laboratory analyzers, focusing solely on devices capable of continuous or periodic real-time measurement.
This standard is essential for ensuring the reliability, accuracy, and performance consistency of continuous water quality monitoring devices, providing uniform test methods under both laboratory and field conditions. It aims to guide manufacturers and users in verifying device claims and meeting practical application requirements.
Key Topics
Continuous Measuring Devices (CMDs): Defined as instruments that continuously output signals proportional to measured water parameters. CMDs can be portable or fixed.
General Requirements: This includes functional capabilities necessary for various user applications, as well as mandatory documentation content that manufacturers must provide.
Performance Test Procedures: Standardized laboratory and field test methods to evaluate key characteristics such as signal linearity, output stabilization time, repeatability, and bias.
Statistical Evaluation: The standard incorporates statistical methods for analyzing test data, including the use of median values and specific formulas to calculate measurement uncertainty and bias.
Exclusion of Some Test Procedures: Recognizes that certain tests may not apply to all device types, allowing flexibility while maintaining rigorous evaluation.
Technical Data Requirements: Mandates that manufacturers supply comprehensive technical data to support device verification, going beyond requirements specified in EN ISO 15839:2006.
Applications
Water Quality Monitoring: EN 17075:2018/FprA1 supports monitoring of physical and chemical parameters such as pH, dissolved oxygen, turbidity, and pollutant concentrations in surface water, groundwater, and wastewater.
Environmental Compliance: Ensures devices used for regulatory compliance reporting and environmental impact assessments meet rigorous performance criteria.
Industrial Effluent Monitoring: Applicable for continuous monitoring on discharge lines to detect and control pollutants, ensuring adherence to environmental permits.
Drinking Water Safety: Enables real-time surveillance of water quality in treatment plants and distribution networks.
Research and Data Collection: Facilitates consistent data quality for scientific studies and water resource management.
Related Standards
EN ISO 15839:2006 – Water quality - Online sensors/analysing equipment for water - Specifications and test methods. Focused mainly on device characterization and aiding manufacturers in development phases.
CEN/TC 230 – The technical committee responsible for water analysis standards, ensuring harmonization across European member countries.
Other Water Quality Standards: Related European and international standards on water sampling, laboratory analysis, and sensor calibration complement EN 17075:2018 requirements.
Key benefits of EN 17075:2018/FprA1 include providing a strict and clear framework for evaluating continuous water quality monitoring devices, fostering trust in reported data, and enhancing environmental protection measures through better monitoring technologies. Its harmonization across Europe helps users select reliable equipment that complies with regulatory demands, thereby supporting sustainable water management and public health initiatives.
