Water quality - General requirements and performance test procedures for water monitoring equipment - Measuring devices
This standard is Part 2 of a two part series of standards defining the technical requirements for testing the performance of water monitoring equipment. This standard defines general requirements and performance test procedures for automated measuring devices (AMD). These devices may be permanently installed or portable and are capable of making continuous real-time re measurements in water of chemicals or physical parameters.
Automated measuring devices are used extensively in the industrial process, water industries and by regulators for compliance and surveillance monitoring and process control purposes. The standard supports the Industrial Emissions Directive, Marine Directive and the Water Framework Directive.
The test parameters are performance characteristics that identify the capability of an AMD to provide reliable measurements. They include: bias, repeatability and errors caused by variations in linearity, drift, interferents, salinity compensation, output impedance, supply voltage, ambient temperature, relative humidity, incident light, sample temperature, sample flow-rate, sample pressure. The overall measurement reliability of an AMD is calculated in the form of a combined performance characteristic expressed as measurement uncertainty.
Wasserbeschaffenheit - Allgemeine Anforderungen und Testverfahren zur Leistungsprüfung von Geräten zum Wassermonitoring - Messgeräte
Dieses Dokument legt allgemeine Anforderungen und Leistungsprüfungsverfahren für tragbare und fest installierte Messgeräte fest, die in einer Inline oder Online Betriebsposition verwendet werden, um physikalische und chemische Bestimmungsgrößen in Wasser zu messen. Es deckt keine chemischen Test-Kits und Laboranalysegeräte ab.
Die allgemeinen Anforderungen umfassen bestimmte Merkmale, die für den Gebrauch des Geräts, zur Information des Anwenders und für die zugehörigen Dokumente notwendig sind.
Die Prüfverfahren legen einheitliche Verfahren fest, die beim Bestimmen von wichtigen Leistungskenngrößen von MDs verwendet werden. Die Leistungsprüfungen umfassen unter Labor- und Feldbedingungen durchgeführte Prüfungen. Es ist zu beachten, dass bestimmte Prüfverfahren für einige Geräte nicht geeignet sind.
Statistische Verfahren für die Auswertung der Prüfdaten sind definiert.
Beispielwerte für Leistungskenngrößen für eine Auswahl an MDs zum Monitoring von Abläufen von Abwasser und Vorflutern sind detailliert in Anhang A als Hilfestellung angegeben.
Dieses Dokument fordert von den Herstellern eines MD die Bereitstellung von mehr technischen Daten zur Verifizierung als EN ISO 15839:2006 [7]. Deshalb ist EN ISO 15839 [7] eine bessere Hilfestellung für Hersteller, die ein neues Gerät charakterisieren möchten, während dieses Dokument den Schwerpunkt eher auf die Anwenderanforderungen für die Verifizierung der Herstellerangaben legt.
Qualité de l'eau - Exigences générales et modes opératoires d'essai de performance pour les équipements de surveillance de l'eau - Dispositifs de mesure
La présente Norme européenne spécifie les exigences générales et les modes opératoires d'essai de performance pour les dispositifs de mesure (DM) portables et fixes qui sont utilisés in situ, en ligne et en ligne avec boucle de prélèvement afin de mesurer les caractéristiques physiques et chimiques à déterminer dans l'eau. Elle exclut les dispositifs « at-line », tels que les tests chimiques en kit, et les dispositifs hors ligne, tels que les analyseurs de laboratoire.
Les exigences générales comprennent les installations fonctionnelles dont les DM ont besoin pour répondre aux besoins des utilisateurs pour leurs applications, ainsi que les informations qui doivent être incluses dans les documents associés.
Les modes opératoires d'essai spécifient les méthodes uniformes à utiliser pour déterminer les caractéristiques de performance clés des DM. Les essais de performance comprennent des essais effectués dans des conditions de laboratoire et des conditions réelles.
Des procédures statistiques sont définies pour l'évaluation des données d'essai. Il est reconnu que pour certains dispositifs, certains modes opératoires d'essai ne sont pas applicables.
Des exemples de valeurs de caractéristiques de performance pour une sélection de DM destinés à la surveillance des effluents d'eaux usées et des eaux réceptrices sont fournis à l'Annexe A à titre d’information.
La présente Norme européenne exige que le fabricant d'un DM fournisse davantage de données techniques pour la vérification que ne l'exige l'EN ISO 15839:2006 [5]. Par conséquent, l'EN ISO 15839 sera d'une plus grande utilité pour les fabricants qui souhaitent caractériser un nouveau dispositif, tandis que la présente Norme européenne est davantage axée sur les exigences de l'utilisateur relatives à la vérification des allégations du fabricant.

Introduction
This document defines general requirements and test procedures for verifying the performance of
measuring devices (MDs) used to monitor the quality of a wide range of waters including drinking
waters, waste waters, and natural waters. It covers both portable measuring devices (PMDs) and fixed
position measuring devices (FMDs). These devices include: sensors, single and multi-parameter
instruments, discrete and batch instruments, probes and sondes. It excludes chemical test kits. For the
purposes of this document the acronym MD(s) is used except where it is necessary to be specific about
the particular type (e.g. PMDs, FMDs) or component of a MD (e.g. sensor).
This document is associated with EN 16479 [1] which covers automated sampling devices (samplers)
for water and waste water.
The general requirements include several features that are necessary to meet users’ applications and
information that has to be included in associated documents.
The performance tests comprise testing carried out under laboratory and field conditions They are
designed to determine, in a systematic and consistent way, the capability of MDs to make reliable
measurements. The testing focuses on key performance characteristics. Statistical procedures are
defined for evaluation of the test data.
The range of measurements over which the test procedures will be applied, the test range, is not
specified. It is for the MD manufacturer and/or the user to decide on the test range. Similarly, it is for
the MD manufacturer and/or the user to decide on the intended uses (applications) which will inform
the design of the field trial.
Water monitoring equipment is widely used for compliance monitoring purposes under national and
European regulations. This document supports the requirements of the following EU Directives:
— Industrial Emissions Directive (2010/75/EU) [2];
— Water Framework Directive (2000/60/EC) [3];
— Marine Strategy Framework Directive (2008/56/EC) [4];
— Drinking Water Directive (98/83/EC) [5];
— Technical Specifications for Chemical Analysis and Monitoring of Water Status (2009/90/EC) [6].

1 Scope
This document specifies general requirements and performance test procedures for portable and fixed
position measuring devices that are used in an in-line or online operating position to measure physical
and chemical measurands in water. It excludes chemical test kits and laboratory analysers.
The general requirements include functional facilities that MDs need to meet users’ applications and
information that needs to be included in associated documents.
The test procedures specify uniform methods to be used when determining key performance
characteristics of MDs. The performance tests comprise testing carried out under laboratory and field
conditions. It is recognized that for some devices certain test procedures are not applicable.
Statistical procedures are defined for evaluation of the test data.
Example values for performance characteristics for a selection of MDs for monitoring waste water
effluents and receiving waters are detailed in Annex A for guidance.
This document requires the manufacturer of a MD to provide more technical data for verification than
does EN ISO 15839:2006 [7]. Consequently, EN ISO 15839 [7] will be of greater assistance to
manufacturers wishing to characterize a new device whereas this document is more focussed on user
requirements for the verification of manufacturer’s claims.

measurement error
error of measurement
error
measured quantity value minus a reference quantity value
Note 1 to entry: The concept of “measurement error” can be used both:
a) when there is a single reference quantity value to refer to, which occurs if a calibration is made by
means of a measurement standard with a measured quantity value having a negligible measurement
uncertainty or if conventional quantity value is given, in which case the measurement error is known;
and
b) if a measurand is supposed to be represented by a unique true quantity value or a set of true quantity
values of negligible range, in which case the measurement error is not known.
Note 2 to entry: Measurement error should not be confused with production error or mistake.
[SOURCE: ISO/IEC Guide 99:2007 [11], 2.16]

uncertainty
non-negative parameter characterizing the dispersion of the quantity values being attributed to a
measurand, based on the information used
Note 1 to entry: The parameter may be, for example, a standard deviation called standard measurement
uncertainty (or a specified multiple of it), or the half-width of an interval, having a stated coverage probability.
Note 2 to entry: In general, for a given set of information, it is understood that the measurement uncertainty is
associated with a stated quantity value attributed to the measurand. A modification of this value results in a
modification of the associated uncertainty.
Note 3 to entry: Measurement uncertainty includes components arising from systematic effects, such as
components associated with corrections and the assigned quantity values of measurement standards, as well as
the definitional uncertainty. Sometimes estimated systematic effects are not corrected for but, instead, associated
measurement uncertainty components are incorporated.
Note 4 to entry: Measurement uncertainty comprises, in general, many components. Some of these may be
evaluated by Type A evaluation of measurement uncertainty from the statistical distribution of the quantity values
from series of measurements and can be characterized by standard deviations. The other components, which may
be evaluated by Type B evaluation of measurement uncertainty, can also be characterized by standard deviations,
evaluated from probability density functions based on experience or other information.

Note 1 to entry: Expanded measurement uncertainty is termed “overall uncertainty” in paragraph 5 of
Recommendation INC-1 (1980) (see the GUM) and simply “uncertainty” in IEC documents.
Note 2 to entry: The factor depends upon the type of probability distribution of the output quantity in a
measurement model and on the selected coverage probability.
Note 3 to entry: The term “factor” in this definition refers to a coverage factor.

5 Principles
The general requirements are based on experience of users’ needs when operating a MD in online or in-
line measuring positions in a range of applications.
The performance characteristics are parameters that identify the capability of a MD to provide reliable
measurements. They are determined as measurement uncertainty and expressed as percentage error
(see 3.7) except for bias and repeatability which are expressed as relative values in percentage. For low
concentration measurements where the reading approaches zero the percentage error value becomes
inapplicable. At low concentrations the uncertainty should be expressed as an absolute value. The
tables at Annex A list example values relevant to monitoring waste water effluents and receiving
waters.
Measurement reliability includes:
— the MD's measurement bias, LOQ, linearity, drift, repeatability and response time;
— operational influences arising from variations in supply voltage, output impedance, sample
temperature, sample flow-rate and sample pressure;
— environmental influences arising from variations in ambient temperature, relative humidity,
interferents and incident light.

SIST EN 17075:2019
EN 17075:2018 (E)
The overall measurement reliability of a MD is captured by bringing the individual performance
characteristics together in the form of a combined performance characteristic expressed as
measurement uncertainty.
The laboratory performance tests are designed to determine the values for the specified performance
characteristics in a systematic and consistent way. Laboratory testing is used to determine each
performance characteristic in turn in a controlled environment.
Statistical procedures are defined for evaluation of the laboratory test data to calculate the individual
performance characteristic m

Introduction
This European standard defines general requirements and test procedures for verifying the
performance of measuring devices (MDs) used to monitor the quality of a wide range of waters
including drinking waters, waste waters, and natural waters. It covers both portable measuring devices
(PMDs) and fixed position measuring devices (FMDs). These devices include: sensors, single and multi-
parameter instruments, discrete and batch instruments, probes and sondes. It excludes chemical test
kits. For the purposes of this standard the acronym MD(s) is used except where it is necessary to be
specific about the particular type (e.g. PMDs, FMDs) or component of a MD (e.g. sensor).
This European standard is associated to EN 16479 which covers automated sampling devices
(samplers) for water and waste water.
The general requirements include several features that are necessary to meet users’ applications and
information that has to be included in associated documents.
The performance tests comprise testing carried out under laboratory and field conditions They are
designed to determine, in a systematic and consistent way, the capability of MDs to make reliable
measurements. The testing focuses on key performance characteristics. Statistical procedures are
defined for evaluation of the test data.
The range of measurements over which the test procedures will be applied, the test range, is not
specified. It is for the MD manufacturer to decide on the test range. Similarly, it is for the MD
manufacturer to decide on the intended uses (applications) which will inform the design of the field
trial.
Water monitoring equipment is widely used for compliance monitoring purposes under national and
European regulations. This European Standard supports the requirements of the following EU
Directives:
— industrial Emissions Directive (2010/75/EU) [1];
— water Framework Directive (2000/60/EC) [2];
— marine Strategy Framework Directive (2008/56/EC) [3];
— technical specifications for chemical analysis and monitoring of water status (2009/90/EC) [4].

1 Scope
This European Standard specifies general requirements and performance test procedures for portable
and fixed position measuring devices (MDs) that are used in an in-line or online operating position to
measure physical and chemical determinands in water. It excludes at-line devices, such as chemical test
kits, and off-line devices, such as laboratory analysers.
The general requirements include functional facilities that MDs need to meet users’ applications and
information that need to be included in associated documents.
The test procedures specify uniform methods to be used when determining key performance
characteristics of MDs. The performance tests comprise testing carried out under laboratory and field
conditions.
Statistical procedures are defined for evaluation of the test data. It is recognized that for some devices
certain test procedures are not applicable.
Example values for performance characteristics for a selection of MDs for monitoring waste water
effluents and receiving waters are detailed in Annex A for guidance.
This European Standard requires the manufacturer of a MD to provide more technical data for
verification than does EN ISO 15839:2006 [5]. Consequently, EN ISO 15839 will be of greater assistance
to manufacturers wishing to characterize a new device whereas this European Standard is more
focussed on user requirements for the verification of manufacturer’s claims.

Note 3 to entry: Measurement uncertainty includes components arising from systematic effects, such as
components associated with corrections and the assigned quantity values of measurement standards, as well as
the definitional uncertainty. Sometimes estimated systematic effects are not corrected for but, instead, associated
measurement uncertainty components are incorporated.

evaluated by Type A evaluation of measurement uncertainty from the statistical distribution of the quantity values
from series of measurements and can be characterized by standard deviations. The other components, which may
be evaluated by Type B evaluation of measurement uncertainty, can also be characterized by standard deviations,
evaluated from probability density functions based on experience or other information.

Note 1 to entry: The concept of ‘measurement error’ can be used both
a) when there is a single reference quantity value to refer to, which occurs if a calibration is
made by means of a measurement standard with a measured quantity value having a negligible
measurement uncertainty or if conventional quantity value is given, in which case the
measurement error is known, and
b) if a measurand is supposed to be represented by a unique true quantity value or a set of
true quantity values of negligible range, in which case the measurement error is not known.
Note 2 to entry: Measurement error should not be confused with production error or mistake.
