NSF/ANSI/CAN 372-2020 is an American National Standard that establishes a standardized methodology for the determination and verification of product compliance to minimize lead contaminants.
Scope
The NSF/ANSI/CAN 372 standard includes:
- a maximum weighted lead content requirement of 0.25 percent (0.2 percent for solders and fluxes)
- a formula for calculating the weighted average lead content of each product prior to testing
- specific procedures for testing products for lead content
Products cover under NSF/ANSI/CAN 372:
Multiple products that come into contact with drinking water can be tested to NSF/ANSI/CAN 372:
- Coatings
- Valves
- Pipes
- Gaskets
- Solder and flux fittings
- Faucets
- Water filters
- Water softeners
- Reverse osmosis systems
