Water quality - Test for the inhibition of oxygen consumption by activated sludge (ISO 8192:1986)

Wasserbeschaffenheit - Bestimmung der Hemmung des Sauerstoffverbrauchs von Belebtschlamm (ISO 8192:1986)

1.1 Diese Norm beschreibt ein Verfahren zur Abschätzung der Hemmwirkung eines Untersuchungsmaterials auf den Sauerstoffverbrauch von Mikroorganismen im Belebtschlamm. Die Hemmwirkung kann die Wirkung sowohl auf die Atmung als auch auf die Nitrifikation einschließen. 1.2 Mit dem Verfahren werden Informationen über hemmende oder stimulierende Wirkung des Untersuchungsmaterials auf die Mikroorganismen des Belebtschlammes nach kurzer Einwirkungßeit (bis zu 180 min)erhalten.

La CEI 61753-121-3 :2010 spécifie les exigences relatives aux essais appliqués aux cordons finis utilisés en tant que cordons de brassage, cordons de zone de travail et cordons d'équipement, en vue d'applications dans un environnement non contrôlé (U) conformément à la CEI 61753-1, là où les connecteurs sont déjà conformes, conjointement avec les exigences de la catégorie U de la CEI 61753-1. Les ensembles sont constitués de câbles à fibres optiques simplex ou duplex munis à chaque extrémité du câble de connecteurs à fibres optiques unimodales polies sans angle (PC) ou à angle (APC), comportant des férules cylindriques. La longueur d'onde de fonctionnement est comprise entre 1 260 nm et 1 625 nm.

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. Esch 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, govern-
mental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to
the member bodies for approval before their acceptance as International Standards by
the ISO Council. They are approved in accordance with ISO procedures requiring at
least 75 % approval by the member bodies voting.
International Standard ISO 8192 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 147,
Wa ter quality.
Users should note that all International Standards undergo revision from time to time
and that any reference made herein to any other International Standard implies its
