Compliance overview
Scope and applicability
This standard applies to bottled purified water for drinking produced from water sources compliant with *GB 5749*. It covers water processed via distillation, deionization, or reverse osmosis, sealed in containers without any additives. It is mandatory for manufacturers producing bottled purified water for the Chinese market.
Technical requirements
The standard specifies comprehensive requirements for bottled purified water. It outlines sensory requirements including color, turbidity, odor, and visible matter. Furthermore, it defines quality physicochemical parameters such as pH value, conductivity, potassium permanganate consumption, and chloride levels. Manufacturers must ensure these parameters do not exceed the specified limits. The standard also references *GB 17324* for pollution physicochemical indicators (e.g., lead, arsenic) and microbial indicators, ensuring product safety.
Testing methods
Testing procedures involve evaluating sensory attributes and physicochemical parameters using methods specified in *GB/T 8538* and *GB 5750*. Notably, conductivity is measured using a dedicated method detailed in the standard's appendix. Microbial and contamination tests are conducted according to *GB 17324*. Strict sampling rules must be followed for both factory and type testing.
FAQs
What products are regulated under GB 17323-1998?
It regulates bottled purified water for drinking that is sealed in containers and contains no additives, processed from water meeting *GB 5749* standards.
Does GB 17323-1998 include requirements for microbial limits?
Yes, the standard mandates microbial indicators and pollution physicochemical indicators by directly referencing the requirements set in *GB 17324*.
Are there specific labeling requirements for distilled water?
Yes, only products processed via distillation can be labeled as 'distilled water'. Other processing methods must use the name 'drinking purified water'.
