At elevated temperatures (> 100°C) sulfur dioxide is generated. Sodium hydrogen sulfite reacts violently with oxidising agents; e.g. with sodium hypochlorite or hydrogen peroxide. 4 Purity criteria 4.1 General This European Standard specifies the minimum purity requirements for sodium hydrogen sulfite used for the treatment of water intended for human consumption. Limits are given for impurities commonly present in the product. 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. Users of this product should check the national regulations in order to clarify whether it is of appropriate purity for treatment of water intended for human consumption, taking into account raw water quality, required dosage, contents of other impurities and additives used in the products not stated in this product standard. Limits have been given for impurities and chemical parameters where these are likely to be present in significant quantities from the current production process and raw materials. If the production process or raw materials leads to significant quantities of impurities, by-products or additives being present, this shall be notified to the user. 4.2 Composition of commercial product The commercial product has a concentration of NaHSO3 of approximately 520 g/l, which relates to a content of mass fraction of 40 % NaHSO3, corresponding to a mass fraction of 25 % SO2. The concentration of sodium hydrogen sulfite shall be within ± 5 % of the manufacturer's declared value. SIST EN 12120:2013
EN 12120:2012 (E) 8 4.3 Impurities and main by-products The sum of the content of sodium sulfate and sodium chloride shall not exceed a mass fraction of 5 % of the commercial product, i.e. solution of mass fraction of 40 % NaHSO3. 4.4 Chemical parameters The product shall conform to the requirements specified in Table 1.

Otherwise, proceed as described in 5.1.2.1.3. SIST EN 12120:2013
EN 12120:2012 (E) 9 5.1.2.1.3 Examine the surface of the liquid. If there are signs of surface contamination, take samples from the surface as described in 5.1.2.2. Otherwise, take samples as described in 5.1.2.3. 5.1.2.2 Surface sampling Take a sample using a suitable ladle. Lower the ladle into the liquid until the rim is just below the surface, so that the surface layer runs into it. Withdraw the ladle just before it fills completely and allow any liquid adhering to the ladle to drain off. If necessary, repeat this operation so that, when the other selected containers have been sampled in a similar manner, the total volume of sample required for subsequent analysis is obtained. 5.1.2.3 Bottom sampling Take a sample using an open sampling tube, or a bottom-valve sampling tube, suited to the size of container and the viscosity of the liquid. When using an open sampling tube, close it at the top and then lower the bottom end to the bottom of the container. Open the tube and move it rapidly so that the bottom of the tube traverses the bottom of the container before the tube is filled. Close the tube, withdraw it from the container and allow any liquid adhering to the outside of the tube to drain off. When using a bottom-valve sampling tube, close the valve before lowering the tube into the container and then proceed in a similar manner to that when using an open sampling tube. 5.1.3 Sampling from tanks and tankers From each access point, take samples as follows: a) from the surface of the liquid, using a ladle as described in 5.1.2.2; b) from the bottom of the tank or tanker, using a sampling tube as
