  7. Why NSF/ANSI 61 Approved?How was it developed: • Development lead by NSF, AWWA, AwwaRF, US EPA, ASDWA (Association of Safe Drinking Water Administrators) • Developed and revised annually by a balanced joint committee comprised of: • US and Canadian regulators • Water utility and other users representatives • Product manufactures

  8. NSF/ANSI 61What does it cover… Products or materials that come into contact with drinking water or drinking water treatment chemicals such as: • Pipes and fittings • Joining & sealing material • Paints & coatings • Process media • Endpoint devices • Faucets • Drinking fountains • Mechanical devices – booster systems, etc • Process equipment • Water meters, valves

  9. NSF/ANSI 61DRINKING WATER COMPONENTS Acceptance Criteria • Regulated contaminants • Includes USEPA and Health Canada regulated contaminants and EPA health advisories • Non Regulated contaminants • More than 600 risk values have been set by NSF to address leaching of chemicals from materials that contact drinking water.

  10. U.S. DRINKING WATER AUTHORITIES • Federal – EPA Safe Drinking Water Act (1976) and Amendment (1986 & 1996) • Minimum national requirements for drinking water quality and monitoring for public water systems • State Missouri – Has primacy for compliance and enforcement of Safe Drinking Water Act • Carried out through state regulation • Cities/Municipal Utility Districts – Responsible for water quality and reporting functions for public water systems

  16. Pipe • 2-8” 304 Stainless Steel headers • Steel Pipe with NSF approved coating in waterway • Copper pipe as approved by NSF 5169

  17. Valves • Valve body has an NSF61 internal coating • PPG Ameron 2/400 coating • Stainless Steel internals • Type L copper sensing lines 5169

  18. NSF 61 not 51 Approved • Many Pump manufactures claim to be NSF approved • Only for Swimming pool use (NSF51) • Two manufacturers approved for NSF61 Drinking Water • Grundfos (owns Paco) • Paco • Goulds submersible turbine (limited size approval) 5169

  19. Gasket Material • EDPM (Ethylene Propylene Terpolymer) • NBR (Nitrile Butadiene Rubber) 5169

  20. What’s the Big DEAL! • 44 states require NSF 61 systems currently • Clean drinking water • No people getting sick due to pumped water • Not with NSF 61 approved system • Has it happened? - YES • Will it happen again? - YES • Do you want to take that chance? N-5169
