Which products are required to meet NSF Standard 61 under the SDWA?
Only those products that are specifically listed in NSF Standard 61, Section 9 are required to meet the standard for the purposes of section 1417 of the SDWA. The devices include kitchen and bar faucets, lavatory faucets, water dispensers, drinking fountains, water coolers, glass fillers, residential refrigerator ice makers, supply stops and endpoint control valves. 3. How much lead does NSF Standard 61, Section 9 allow to be leached from endpoint devices? The NSF Standard is designed to result in limiting the amount of lead from endpoint devices to 11 ppb when normalized to 1 Liter. This approach is based on the 15 ppb action level established in the Lead and Copper rule, considering the 11 ppb lead contributed from the endpoint device as well as from sources other than the endpoint device, which is assumed to be 4 ppb. 4. What is the NSF test procedure for endpoint devices? The NSF test procedure requires that at least three endpoint devices be exposed to specially formulated water f
