Overview

EN 15514:2014 - Chemicals used for treatment of swimming pool water - Hydrochloric acid (CEN) is the European standard that specifies the characteristics, purity requirements, test methods, labelling, transportation and storage rules for hydrochloric acid used in swimming pool water treatment. The standard describes identification, commercial forms (aqueous solutions, typically 25–38% mass fraction), key physical and chemical properties, and provides guidance on safe handling (Annex B) and product use (Annex A). Compliance with EN 15514:2014 helps manufacturers, suppliers and pool operators ensure product quality and safety, while national regulations may still apply.

Key Topics and Requirements

• Scope and identification
  • Chemical name: hydrochloric acid (HCl), synonyms: muriatic acid, hydrogen chloride.
  • CAS 7647-01-0, EINECS 231-595-7.
• Commercial forms
  • Concentrated aqueous solutions (≥ 25% mass fraction); dilutions available commercially.
• Physical properties
  • Appearance: colourless to yellow, slightly to strongly fuming.
  • Density: ~1.135–1.185 g/ml at 20 °C (concentration-dependent).
  • Miscible in water; vapour pressure, boiling and freezing points provided for common concentrations (e.g., boiling point: 25% → 104 °C, 30% → 90 °C, 38% → 50.5 °C).
  • Specific heat and viscosity data for representative solutions are included.
• Purity and chemical parameters
  • Minimum concentration and limits for impurities and trace metals are specified.
  • Examples: Iron (Fe) ≤ 170 mg/kg; halogenated organic compounds (as Cl) ≤ 17 mg/kg.
  • Trace metal limits given as Type 1 / Type 2 (e.g., As 3/10 mg/kg; Pb 3/20 mg/kg; Hg 0.5/3 mg/kg).
• Test methods
  • Sampling and analytical methods referenced to EN 939.
• Labelling, transport and storage
  • Requirements for dedicated delivery vessels (25 kg carboys to 25 t bulk), EU labelling rules (updated in 2014), transport marking, storage incompatibilities, long‑term stability and emergency procedures (first aid, spillage, fire).

Applications and Who Uses It

• Intended users: pool operators, public/private leisure facility managers, chemical manufacturers and formulators, distributors, water treatment engineers, laboratories and regulatory bodies.
• Practical uses:
  • pH control and acid dosing in swimming pool water treatment.
  • Specification for procurement and quality control of hydrochloric acid used in pools.
  • Safety management (handling, storage, spill response) and compliance documentation.

Related Standards

• EN 939 - Chemicals used for treatment of water intended for human consumption - Hydrochloric acid (referenced for test methods).
• EN 15514:2007 - earlier edition superseded by EN 15514:2014.
