![1.0 Weighted Average of Lead Content Calculation
Using the following formula, determine the weighted average of the lead content:
n
WLC = Σ (LCc x [WSAc ])
c=1
WSAT
Where:
WLC = Weighted average lead content of product
LCc = Percentage lead content of component
WSA c = Wetted surface area of component
WSA T = Total wetted surface area of all components
n = number of wetted components in product
Weighted average of lead content: _________________________________________

- 1. American Society of Sanitary Engineering PRODUCT (SEAL) LISTING PROGRAM Testing and Evaluation of Lead Content in Plumbing Products This report shall be completed by an ASSE Listed Testing Laboratory. A list of these laboratories may be found on ASSE’s website at www.asse-plumbing.org. The purpose of this report is to evaluate the lead content of a model or series of models. Those manufacturers desiring a lead content certification at the time of original listing with ASSE shall have the laboratory forward this report along with a Laboratory Evaluation Report form to a product performance standard to ASSE. Those manufacturers desiring a lead content certification for a current listed product shall have the laboratory forward this report to ASSE and shall request a modification review of their currently listed product as outlined in Section 10 of the ASSE Seal Control Board Procedures.
