Foreword
The text of EN ISO 8795:2001 has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 155 "Plastics
piping systems and ducting systems", the secretariat of which is held by NEN, in collaboration with
Technical Committee ISO/TC 138 "Plastics pipes, fittings and valves for the transport of fluids".
This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an
identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by September 2001, and conflicting national standards
shall be withdrawn at the latest by September 2001.
This Standard replaces EN 852-1:1996. This revision contains the addition of requirements for fittings
and joints.
NOTE 1 ISO 8795:1998 is a revision of ISO 8795:1990 and is identical with EN 852-1:1996.
Plastics pipes for the transport of water intended for human
It is based on ISO 8795:1990 "
consumption - Extractability of constituents - Test method
", published by the International Organisation
for Standardisation (ISO). It differs from ISO 8795:1990 due to the need for the test method to be
applicable to European conditions and practice.
The main modifications are:
a) testing of fittings and joints has been added;
b) test liquids:
- the addition of neutral water (pH = 7,0) to cover non-European conditions;
- pH 9 has been added, to cover European conditions (see Directive 98/83/EC Part C);
- pH 11 is mentioned;
- addition of test liquid with an active chlorine content of 1 mg/l;
c) a stagnation period has been added;
d) exposure time: 72 h is specified for cold water applications and 24 h is specified for warm and
hot water applications;
e) temperatures:
- 70 °C is specified for moderate hot water conditions;
f) large diameter pipes, fittings and joints: a procedure for testing has been added.
Annex A, which is normative, describes the preparation of test liquids.
Annex B, which is normative, describes the preparation of test pieces for testing pipes, fittings and
joints with nominal sizes greater than 80.
Further is included a bibliography.
This standard is one of a series of standards on test methods which support System Standards for
plastics piping systems and ducting systems.
According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the
following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Czech
Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg,
Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom.

1  Scope
This standard specifies a method for the determination of the migration of constituents from the
internal surface of plastics pipes, fittings and joints. Organoleptic and microbiological assessments are
not included.
This standard is applicable to all plastics pipes, fittings and joints to be used for the transport of water
intended for human consumption and raw water used for the manufacturing of water intended for
human consumption. It covers all constituents which are extractable by water from a finished pipe,
fitting or joint. It provides for a change in procedure as necessary depending upon the size of the pipe,
fitting or joint.
NOTE 1 It is assumed that the referring standards or regulations making reference to this standard include the
following information (see also the note to clause 4):
a) choice of test liquid(s) (see 5.3);
b) choice of test temperature(s) (see clause 6).
NOTE 2 The pre-treatment procedures, test liquids and test temperatures mentioned in this standard cover the
present situation. When new and/or different conditions are formulated (currently under discussion) the standard
will be amended accordingly.
2  Normative references
This European Standard incorporates by dated or undated reference, provisions from other
publications. These normative references are cited at the appropriate places in the text and the
publications are listed hereafter. For dated references, subsequent amendments to, or revisions of,
any of these publications apply to this European Standard only when incorporated in it by amendment
or revision. For undated references the latest edition of the publication referred to applies (including
amendments).

3.6
joint
connection between the ends of two components (electrofusion joints are included)
3.7
migration liquid
test liquid which has been in contact with a test piece under specified conditions
3.8
migration number (n)

4  Principle
Test pieces are subjected to stagnation and prewashing with tapwater for a specified time. The test
pieces are then filled with the specified test liquid at a specified temperature and kept for a series of
specified migration periods. The migration liquid is then analysed to assess any constituents which
were able to migrate.
NOTE It is assumed that the following test parameters are set by the standard(s) making reference to this
standard:
a) the test liquid(s) (see 5.3);
b) the test temperature, T, if other than as given in clause 6;
c) the number of pairs of test pieces (see 9.1.1);
d) the constituents for which analysis is to be made both upon test pieces and the blank test and the required
accuracy, taking account of 9.5 (see also clause 10).

interfere with the measurements of constituents.
5.3  Selection of test liquids to perform the test
5.3.1
For cold water applications the test liquid(s) shall be selected from those given in 5.1.
5.3.2
For warm and hot water applications (see clause 6) the test liquid shall conform to 5.1.1.
6  Test temperatures
Unless otherwise specified in the referring standard or regulations, the test temperature shall be
selected from the following:
a) for cold water applications: (23 ± 2) °C;
b) for warm water applications: either (60 ± 2) °C or (70 ± 2) °C, depending upon the class of
pipe;
c) for hot water applications: (90 ± 2) °C;
d) for tropical conditions: (27 ± 2) °C.
7  Apparatus
7.1  Connections, stoppers and containers, made of material which is inert at the specified test
conditions, such as glass or PTFE or stainless steel (see also annex B).
NOTE The material PTFE should only be used when there is a small contact area with the test liquid, thus not
for containers.
7.2  Thermostatically controlled environment or enclosure, capable of maintaining the relevant
test temperature(s) (see clause 6).
8  Test pieces
8.1  General

the manufacturer provides written instruction on storage, they shall be followed.
The samples shall be stored in their original form as delivered. Where appropriate, storage containers
shall be cleaned using the same procedures as are used for test containers.
8.1.3
The test pieces shall be prepared such that only the surfaces intended to come into contact
with the water are exposed to test liquids conforming to 5.1. Where the composition of the test pieces
is homogeneous, i.e. the inside surface is the same as the outside surface, it is acceptable to immerse
the whole test piece(s) in the test liquid.
If the surface area of the product in contact with drinking water consists of more than one material,
then the product may be tested as a single unit or the individual materials can be tested either by
disassembling the product or by using the procedure in 8.1.4 for each material.
8.1.4
If the procedure for the preparation of a test piece for a particular type of product or material
has not been covered in this standard, deviation from this procedure is permitted under the following
conditions:
a) the finished product and the test piece shall be produced in the same manner;
