Water quality - Gross beta activity - Test method using thick source (ISO/DIS 9697:2025)

This document specifies a test method for the determination of gross beta activity concentration in non-saline waters. The method covers non-volatile radionuclides with maximum beta energies of approximately 0,3 MeV or higher. Measurement of low energy beta emitters (e.g. 3H, 228Ra, 210Pb, 14C, 35S and 241Pu) and some gaseous or volatile radionuclides (e.g. radon and radioiodine) might not be included in the gross beta quantification using the test method described in this document. This test method is applicable to the analysis of raw and drinking waters. The range of application depends on the amount of total soluble salts in the water and on the performance characteristics (background count rate and counting efficiency) of the counter used. It is the laboratory's responsibility to ensure the suitability of this method for the water samples tested.

Medical electrical equipment - Part 2-56: Particular requirements for basic safety and essential performance of clinical thermometers for body temperature measurement (ISO/DIS 80601-2-56:2025)

ISO 80601-2-56:2017 applies to the basic safety and essential performance of a clinical thermometer in combination with its accessories, hereafter referred to as me equipment. This document specifies the general and technical requirements for electrical clinical thermometers. This document applies to all electrical clinical thermometers that are used for measuring the body temperature of patients. Clinical thermometers can be equipped with interfaces to accommodate secondary indicators, printing equipment, and other auxiliary equipment to create me systems. This document does not apply to auxiliary equipment. Me equipment that measures a body temperature is inside the scope of this document. ISO 80601-2-56:2017 does not specify the requirements for screening thermographs intended to be used for the individual non-invasive human febrile temperature screening of groups of individual humans under indoor environmental conditions, which are given in IEC 80601‑2‑59[4]. If a clause or subclause is specifically intended to be applicable to me equipment only, or to me systems only, the title and content of that clause or subclause will say so. If that is not the case, the clause or subclause applies both to me equipment and to me systems, as relevant. Hazards inherent in the intended physiological function of me equipment or me systems within the scope of this document are not covered by specific requirements in this document except in IEC 60601‑1:2005+A1:2012, 7.2.13 and 8.4.1. NOTE Additional information can be found in IEC 60601?1:2005+A1:2012, 4.2.

This document is part of a System Standard for plastics piping systems of a particular material for a specified application. There are a number of such System Standards. System Standards are based on the results of the work being undertaken in ISO/TC 138 “Plastics pipes, fittings and valves for the transport of fluids”, which is a Technical Committee of the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). They are supported by separate standards on test methods, to which references are made throughout the System Standard. The System Standards are consistent with general standards on functional requirements and on recommended practice for installation. This document specifies the definitions and requirements for unplasticized polyvinyl chloride (PVC-U), polypropylene (PP) and polyethylene (PE) ancillary fittings and shallow chambers intended for use in non-pressure underground drains and sewers for wastewater. This document is applicable to: a) ancillary fittings and shallow chambers, intended for use buried underground outside the building structure; reflected in the marking of products by "U"; b) ancillary fittings and shallow chambers, intended for use buried underground both outside (application area code “U”) and within the building structure, reflected in the marking of products by "UD". This document also covers the jointing of the ancillary fittings and shallow chambers to the piping system. The document is applicable to the following ancillary fittings: - sealed access fittings; - rodding point covers; - rodding tees; - mechanical saddles. Ancillary fittings according to this document are intended for use in pedestrian areas, except rodding tees and mechanical saddles which can also be used in vehicular trafficked areas. Ancillary fittings can be installed to a maximum depth of 6,0 m from ground level, with the exception of rodding point covers with a maximum depth of 2,0 m. Shallow chambers according to this document are intended for use in private drains located in pedestrian areas above the ground water table, to a maximum depth of 2,0 m from ground level to the invert of the main flow channel. This document covers shallow chambers having a base with a flow channel and their joints to the piping system. Ancillary fittings and shallow chambers can be manufactured by various methods e.g. injection moulding, rotational moulding, spiral winding or fabricated. NOTE 1 Products complying with this document can be used with pipes, fittings and other components conforming to any of the plastics products standards listed in Annex E, providing their dimensions are compatible. NOTE 2 Products complying with this document can be installed in underground applications without additional static calculation. prEN 13598-1:2025 (E) 6 NOTE 3 Ancillary fittings and shallow chambers can be subject to national regulations and / or local provisions.

Oil and gas industries including lower carbon energy - Materials for use in H2S-containing environments in oil and gas production - Part 2: Service environment assessment and material selection (ISO/DIS 15156-2:2025)

This document gives requirements and recommendations for the selection and qualification of carbon and low-alloy steels for service in equipment used in oil and natural gas production and natural gas treatment plants in H2S-containing environments, whose failure can pose a risk to the health and safety of the public and personnel or to the environment. It can be applied to help to avoid costly corrosion damage to the equipment itself. It supplements, but does not replace, the materials requirements of the appropriate design codes, standards or regulations. This document addresses the resistance of these steels to damage that can be caused by sulfide stress cracking (SSC) and the related phenomena of stress-oriented hydrogen-induced cracking (SOHIC) and soft-zone cracking (SZC). This document also addresses the resistance of these steels to hydrogen-induced cracking (HIC) and its possible development into stepwise cracking (SWC). This document is concerned only with cracking. Loss of material by general (mass loss) or localized corrosion is not addressed. Table 1 provides a non-exhaustive list of equipment to which this document is applicable, including exclusions. This document applies to the qualification and selection of materials for equipment designed and constructed using load controlled design methods. For design utilizing strain-based design methods, see ISO 15156-1:2020, Clause 5. Annex A lists SSC-resistant carbon and low alloy steels, and A.2.4 includes requirements for the use of cast irons. This document is not necessarily suitable for application to equipment used in refining or downstream processes and equipment.

Bio-based products - Bio-based carbon content - Determination of the bio-based carbon content using the radiocarbon method

This document specifies a method for the determination of the bio-based carbon content in products, based on the 14C content measurement. This document also specifies three test methods to be used for the determination of the 14C content from which the bio-based carbon content is calculated: — method A: Liquid scintillation-counter (LSC); — method B: Accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS); and — method C: Saturated-absorption cavity ring-down (SCAR) spectroscopy. The bio-based carbon content is expressed by a fraction of sample mass or as a fraction of the total carbon content. This calculation method is applicable to any product containing carbon, including bio-composites. NOTE This document does not provide the methodology for the calculation of the biomass content of a sample, see EN 16785 1 and EN 16785 2.
