Overview
EN 1197:2014 (CEN) is the European standard that specifies requirements for monozinc phosphate solution used in the treatment of water intended for human consumption. The standard defines product identity, commercial forms, physical and chemical properties, purity criteria, permitted impurity levels, and the corresponding test and sampling methods. It also provides guidance on labelling, transportation and storage and references safety and regulatory provisions (including labelling under Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 – CLP).
Key topics and technical requirements
- Identity and form
- Chemical name: monozinc phosphate solution (Zn(H2PO4)2, solution).
- Typical commercial concentration: 500 g/L; appearance: clear solution.
- CAS: 13598-37-3; EINECS: 237-067-2.
- Physical properties
- Density at 20 °C (500 g/L): 1.7 g/mL.
- Dynamic viscosity (500 g/L, 20 °C): ~180 mPa·s.
- Example pH: a 5 g/L solution has pH ≈ 2.1 (acidic).
- Composition and purity
- Phosphate content (as P2O5): 39 ± 2.0 % (mass fraction).
- Zinc oxide content: 15 ± 1.0 % (mass fraction).
- Impurities limits
- Sulfate: ≤ 500 mg/kg
- Fluoride: ≤ 10 mg/kg
- Trace element limits (mg/kg)
- Antimony, Arsenic, Cadmium, Selenium: ≤ 3
- Chromium, Lead, Nickel: ≤ 10
- Mercury: ≤ 1
- Cyanide (total): ≤ 5
- Test and sampling methods
- Sampling per ISO 3165 and ISO 6206 (drums, tanks, tankers).
- Analytical references include ISO 3706 (total phosphorus), gravimetric ZnO determination, ISO 2997 (sulfate), ISO 3360 (fluoride), and ICP-OES / AAS methods for trace metals (referenced EN/ISO standards in EN 1197:2014).
Applications and users
EN 1197:2014 is intended for stakeholders involved with potable water treatment and chemical supply chains:
- Water utilities and treatment plants specifying or dosing monozinc phosphate solution for potable water systems.
- Chemical manufacturers and suppliers ensuring product composition and impurity limits meet European expectations.
- Analytical and testing laboratories performing acceptance testing and compliance verification.
- Regulators, procurement officers and health & safety teams referencing standardized labelling, storage and transport requirements.
The standard helps assure product consistency, supports safe handling/transport, and enables consistent laboratory verification of monozinc phosphate solutions used in drinking water applications.
Related standards (selected)
EN 1197:2014 normatively references several analytical and sampling standards, for example:
- ISO 3706 - Determination of total phosphorus (P2O5)
- ISO 2997 - Sulfate determination
- ISO 3360 - Fluoride determination
- EN ISO 11885 / EN 1233 / EN ISO 12846 - ICP-OES and AAS methods for trace elements
- ISO 3165 / ISO 6206 - Sampling of chemical products
