Gives a test procedure for microbiological deterioration for elastomeric joint seals. Applies to elastomeric components of composite or non-composite rings, seals, jointing gaskets and like components for use in sealing aqueous fluids in pipes and fittings. Applies to all categories of aqueous fluid, and includes raw and treated potable water, sewerage and drainage water.

This British Standard details the test method for microbiological deterioration for elastomeric joint seals. The method is applicable to elastomeric components of composite or non-composite rings, seals, jointing gaskets and similar components used to seal aqueous fluids in pipes and fittings. It is applicable to all categories of aqueous fluid, including raw and treated potable water, sewerage and drainage water.
