TS 13467

TS 13467 is a service standard for authorized services that work on chlorination equipment used in the disinfection of drinking and potable water. Its focus is not the chlorination unit itself, but the way the authorized service is organised and the basic capabilities it is expected to have.

What an authorised service means in this context

Chlorination is a controlled water disinfection process in which chlorine is dosed to achieve the intended treatment effect. Because this equipment directly affects water quality, the authorised service concept brings together organisational structure, technical equipment, and staff competence under one framework. According to the scope of this standard, those are the main areas covered: structural characteristics, operating arrangements, technical equipment, and personnel qualifications.

Practical scope and boundaries

• The scope covers authorised services for chlorination equipment used in the disinfection of drinking and potable water.
• Service organisation and operating arrangements are central subjects of the standard.
• Technical equipment and employee characteristics are among the main criteria addressed.
• This document is about service provision for chlorination equipment, not the design of the equipment itself.

In general technical practice, chlorination systems depend on accurate dosing, reliable upkeep, and timely response to faults. For that reason, an authorised service is typically expected to combine proper technical knowledge, suitable tools, and organised maintenance procedures. TS 13467 provides a common framework for that service environment.
