Potable Water Test Kit

Water is essential for life and health, and we use it for various purposes, such as drinking, cooking, washing, and cleaning.

Therefore, we need to ensure that the water we use is safe and clean.

International standards for potable water quality monitoring and control are based on the World Health Organization (WHO) recommendations through its International Health Regulations (IHR).

These standards have been adapted for the potable water on board ships, as part of the Ship Sanitation Certificate. MLC 2006 is a regulation that applies to all seagoing vessels and has been in force since August 20, 2013. It specifies the procedures for monitoring and controlling the potable water quality on board ships, such as:

  • The systems that need to be monitored,
  • The methods and frequency of testing,
  • The requirements for record keeping

According to ILO MLC (2006), a qualified person is also required to perform the test on board the vessel or rig. CMT provides complete training for Marine Potable Water Tests to ensure the attendee is qualified to perform all tests according to the legislation. At the end of the training, each attendee will get a certificate proving their qualification.

The CMT Marine Water Test Solutions comply with:

  • MLC (2006)
  • WHO Health Regulations (2005)
  • ILO 178 (2009)
  • European Drinking Water Regulations
  • Norwegian Drinking Water Regulations (applies for ALL ships calling Norwegian ports!)

CMT also offers training for marine potable water testing, which qualifies the attendee to do all tests by law. The training teaches water testing theory and practice and how to interpret and report results. The attendee gets a certificate after the training.

The training is for anyone who does water testing on vessels or rigs, such as ship managers, engineers, officers, or crew members.
