GAMBICA, the association for instrumentation, control, automation has published the 4th edition of its Controlgear Components and Systems guide
A key requirement was for the performance requirements to be based on international standards to enable greater access to world markets.
Also critical was the need to ensure a uniform approach in the UK that would be accepted by the regulatory authorities.
The performance standards now cover automatic wastewater samplers, a range of online analysers and water flowmeters.
Ian Clasper, the GAMBICA Executive responsible for the project, said, "We welcome the introduction of a scheme that is formally recognised within the UK.
Furthermore, we hope that because the scheme is based on international standards, it will readily gain acceptance internationally." Details of MCERTS can be viewed on the Environment Agency's website at http://www.environment-agency.gov.uk/business/mcerts/water.
