Water meters - Part 1: General requirements
This document applies to water meters intended for residential, commercial, light industrial and industrial use, and specifies the requirements and certification procedures for water meters, irrespective of the design technologies used to meter the actual volume of clean cold potable water or heated water, flowing through a fully charged, closed conduit. These water meters shall incorporate devices, which indicate the integrated volume.
This document also applies to water meters based on electrical or electronic principles, and to water meters based on mechanical principles incorporating electronic devices, used to meter the actual volume flow of cold potable water or heated water. It provides metrological requirements for electronic ancillary devices when they are subject to metrological control. As a rule the ancillary devices are optional. However national or international regulations make some ancillary devices mandatory in relation to the utilisation of the water meter.
Wasserzähler - Teil 1: Allgemeine Anforderungen
Dieses Dokument gilt für Wasserzähler, die für den Einsatz in privaten und gewerblichen Bereichen sowie im Bereich der Leichtindustrie und Industrie bestimmt sind. Es legt, ungeachtet der Technologie, die Anforderungen und Zertifizierungsverfahren für Wasserzähler fest, die zur Messung des tatsächlichen Volumens von sauberem, kaltem Trinkwasser oder erwärmtem Wasser, das durch eine voll gefüllte, geschlossene Leitung fließt, eingesetzt werden. Diese Zähler müssen mit Einrichtungen versehen sein, die das summierte Volumen anzeigen.
Dieses Dokument gilt ebenso für Wasserzähler nach elektrischem oder elektronischem Funktionsprinzip und für Wasserzähler nach mechanischem Funktionsprinzip mit elektronischen Einrichtungen, die zur Messung des tatsächlichen Durchflussvolumens von kaltem Trinkwasser oder erwärmtem Wasser dienen. Es legt messtechnische Anforderungen an elektronische Zusatzeinrichtungen fest, soweit diese messtechnisch zu überwachen sind. In der Regel sind Zusatzeinrichtungen nicht zwingend erforderlich. Jedoch werden in nationalen oder internationalen Regelungen einige Zusatzeinrichtungen für die Verwendung von Wasserzählern verbindlich vorgeschrieben.

H1, H2, L, W1 and W2 define the height, length and width respectively of a cuboid within which the water meter can be contained (the cover being at right angles to its closed position). H1, H2, W1 and W2 are maximum dimensions. L is a fixed value with specified tolerances. NOTE 1 Where there is a separate indicating device or calculator, the overall size specified in Figure 1 applies only to the housing of the measurement transducer (flow sensor). NOTE 2 Flange diameter sizes of in-line meters with flanges may lay outside the W and/or H sizes of the cuboid. Key 1 Pipe axis Figure 1 — In-line meter dimensions

NOTE The manufacturer shall provide a reasonable clearance behind the rear face of the flange to allow access for installation and removal. 4.2.4 Connection for bolting in between flanges Meters suitable for bolting between two (conduit) flanges shall be suitable to fit in between two flanges. 4.2.5 Dimensions for manifold(s) for concentric meters Examples of manifolds for concentric meters are shown in an Annex A of EN 14154-2:2004. 4.3 Indicating device 4.3.1 General requirements 4.3.1.1 Function The indicating device of the water meter shall provide an easily read, reliable and unambiguous visual indication of the indicated volume. The indicating device may include elements for testing and calibration by other methods, e.g. for automatic testing and calibration. 4.3.1.2 Unit of measurement, symbol and its placement The volume of water shall be indicated in cubic metres. The symbol m3 shall appear on the dial or immediately adjacent to the numbered display. 4.3.1.3 Indicating range The indicating range shall fulfil provisions formulated in Table 5:
6,3 < Q3 ≤ 63 99 999 63 < Q3 ≤ 630 999 999 630 < Q3 ≤ 6 300 9 999 999 4.3.1.4 Colour coding for indicating devices The colour black should be used to indicate the cubic metre and its multiples. The colour red should be used to indicate sub-multiples of a cubic metre. These colours shall be applied to either the pointers, indexes, numbers, wheels, discs, dials or aperture frames. Other means of indicating the cubic metre, its multiples and its sub-multiples may be used, provided there is no ambiguity in distinguishing between the integer part and the decimal part of the volume. 4.3.1.5 Electronic indicating device The totalizing device shall provide a reliable, clear and unambiguous reading of the volume of water measured. A non-permanent display is permitted, even during measuring, however it shall be possible to display the volume upon request at any time. If the display is non-permanent, the volume indication time shall be at least ten seconds. When the totalizing device is capable of displaying additional information, this information shall be displayed without ambiguity. NOTE This condition could be satisfied if, for example, an extra indication indicates the exact nature of the further information currently displayed, or if each display is controlled by a separate button. A feature shall be included which enables the correct operation of the display to be checked, for example, by successive display of the various characters. Each step of the sequence shall last at least one second. The decimal part of the reading expressed in cubic metres need not necessarily be displayed on the same displaying device as the whole unit part. In such a case, the reading shall be clear and without ambiguity (an extra indication of flow shall be displayed on the indicator). The value may be read, for example: using two separate displaying devices on the totalizing device; in two successive steps on the same displaying device; using a removable indicating device enabling the decimal part display to be read. In such a case a permanent device shall show that the meter is counting with a suitable resolution. The manufacturer shall provide information on the meter about the approximate resolution of this permanent indicating device.
