Foreword

ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards

bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out

through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical

committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International

organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.

ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of

electrotechnical standardization.

The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are

described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the

different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the

editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www .iso .org/directives).

Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of

patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of

any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or

ISO 7027-2:2019(E)
Introduction

Turbidity in waters is caused by the presence of undissolved and/or colloidal matter and small

organisms (for example bacteria, phyto- and zooplankton) present in the water. Turbidity changes the

lighting conditions in surface waters by absorption and scattering of the light and thus influences the

trophic status of these waters. For the indicative assessment of the lighting conditions of waters or the

transparency of the water, semi-quantitative methods can be used (Reference [2]).

Measurements of transparency can be affected by the presence of dissolved light-absorbing substances

(substances imparting colour) as well as by particles (such as sediments).

In semi-quantitative methods such as the determination of transparency depth by Secchi disc,

reflections on the water surface can cause interferences. These are often dependent on the light and

wind conditions.

NOTE Results of a field study for the validation of this document is given in Annex B.

WARNING — Working in or around water is inherently dangerous. Persons using this document

should be familiar with normal laboratory practice. This document does not purport to address

all of the safety problems, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user to

establish appropriate safety and health practices.

IMPORTANT — It is absolutely essential that tests conducted in accordance with this document

be carried out by suitably qualified and trained staff.
1 Scope

This document specifies the following semi-quantitative methods for the assessment of transparency

of waters:

a) measurement of visual range using the transparency testing tube (applicable to transparent and

slightly cloudy water), see Clause 4;

b) measurement of visual range in the upper water layers using the transparency testing disc

(especially applicable to surface, bathing water, waste water and often used in marine monitoring),

see 5.1;
c) measurement of visibility by divers in a destined depth, see 5.2.

NOTE The quantitative methods using optical turbidimeters or nephelometers are described in ISO 7027-1.
