Описание (английский):

Specifies the functional requirements. Is not intended to specify equipment design. Gives certain criteria that are known to be essential for efficient operation. Should be applied with due reference to national regulations. To avoid any accidental contamination, the unit should only be used to supply aircraft with potable water. The informative annex A gives a bibliography.

Abstract

Overview

Key Topics

Scope of Application: The requirements apply to self-propelled vehicles supplying potable water to civil aircraft. The standard stresses exclusive use for drinking water to prevent cross-contamination.
Functional Requirements:
- Safe operation on public roads with a full load
- Dimensional limitations for compatibility with road and airport regulations
- Minimum ground clearance and turning radius for maneuverability
- Easy and thorough cleanability to maintain water quality
Potable Water Tank Requirements:
- Construction from non-corrosive, easily washable materials
- Smooth-finished interiors to prevent sediment build-up
- Features for complete drainage, overflow protection, and secure access
Pumping and Delivery System:
- Reliable water pumps, constructed from suitable materials
- Detailing of flow and pressure performance expectations
- Leak-proof connections and clearly indicated pump operation
Working Platform Specification:
- Elevating platform for efficient access during aircraft servicing
- Safety provisions such as hand-rails, non-slip surfaces, and load limits
- Adequate lighting and controls for safe night or low-visibility operation
Hose and Couplings:
- Use of non-collapsible, easy-to-clean hoses of standardized length and connections
- Compatibility with established aircraft water inlet standards (e.g., ISO 450)
National Regulations Reference: The standard should be implemented with regard to any local laws and regulations concerning sanitation and potable water quality.
Guidance Only: ISO 9678:1991 does not specify design or engineering details, instead emphasizing criteria essential for safe, efficient operation.

Applications

Implementing ISO 9678:1991 is vital in a range of aviation sectors, including:

Aircraft Ground Support Equipment Design: Assists manufacturers in ensuring their potable-water service vehicles meet international safety and operational benchmarks.
Airport Operations: Guides airport authorities in selecting and maintaining compliant potable-water vehicles, thereby enhancing safety and service reliability.
Regulatory Compliance: Supports authorities and operators in meeting both international and national health and safety requirements for potable water supply to aircraft.
Quality Assurance: Provides a reference for evaluating vehicle performance and suitability, helping to prevent accidental water contamination and maintain passenger safety.

Related Standards

For a comprehensive approach to aircraft potable water supply and ground support equipment, consider the following standards alongside ISO 9678:1991:

ISO 450:1976 - Aircraft - Connection for water of drinkable quality
ISO 4950:1974 - Aircraft - Identification of servicing, maintenance, ground handling and safety/hazard points
ISO 6966:1982 - Aircraft - Basic requirements for aircraft loading equipment
WHO Guidelines for Drinking-Water Quality - International reference for potable water standards

By aligning with ISO 9678:1991, organizations can significantly enhance the safety, reliability, and regulatory compliance of their aircraft potable-water supply operations. For further reading, consult the bibliography provided in Annex A of the standard.
