(Main)Ultrasonic domestic gas meters
Ultrasonic domestic gas meters
This European Standard specifies requirements and tests for the construction, performance and safety of class 1,0 and class 1,5 battery powered ultrasonic gas meters (hereinafter referred to as meters), having co-axial single pipe, or two pipe connections, used to measure volumes of distributed fuel gases of the second and/or third family, as given in EN 437, at maximum working pressures not exceeding 0,5 bar ) and maximum actual flow rates of up to 10 m3/h over a minimum ambient temperature range of -10 °C to +40 °C, and minimum gas temperature span of 40 K, for domestic applications. This European Standard applies to meters where the measuring element and the register(s) are enclosed in the same case.
This European Standard applies to meters with and without built-in temperature conversion, that are installed in locations with vibration and shocks of low significance and in
- closed locations (indoor or outdoor with protection as specified by the manufacturer) with condensing or with non-condensing humidity
or, if specified by the manufacturer,
- open locations (outdoor without any covering) with condensing humidity or with non-condensing humidity
and in locations with electromagnetic disturbances.
Unless otherwise stated, all pressures given in this European Standard are gauge pressures.
When more than one meter type is submitted for testing, then each meter type is required to be tested against this European Standard.
Clauses 1 to 15 and Annex C are for design and type testing only.
NOTE See Annex A for production requirements.
Ultraschall-Haushaltsgaszähler
Diese Europäische Norm beschreibt die Anforderungen und Prüfungen hinsichtlich der Konstruktion, Funktion und Sicherheit von Klasse 1,0 und Klasse 1,5 batteriebetriebenen Ultraschallgaszählern (im Folgenden Zähler genannt), die einen gleichachsigen Einstutzen- oder Zweistutzenanschluss aufweisen und zur Volumenmessung von verteilten Brenngasen der zweiten und/oder dritten Gasfamilie, wie in EN 437 angegeben, bei maximalen Betriebsdrücken bis zu 0.5 bar ) und maximalen tatsächlichen Durchflüssen bis zu 10 m3/h bei einem Mindestumgebungstemperaturbereich von -10 °C bis +40 °C und einer Mindestgastemperaturspanne von 40 K für Haushaltsanwendungen eingesetzt werden. Diese Europäische Norm gilt für Zähler, bei denen das Messelement und das/die Zählwerke im selben Gehäuse untergebracht sind.
Diese Europäische Norm gilt für Zähler mit und ohne eingebaute Temperaturumwertung, die an Aufstellungsorten, die in geringem Ausmaß Schwingungen und Erschütterungen ausgesetzt sind, und
an geschlossenen Aufstellungsorten (in Gebäuden oder im Freien mit vom Hersteller vorgeschriebenem Schutz) mit Betauung oder mit betauungsfreier Feuchte.
oder, falls vom Hersteller angegeben,
an offenen Aufstellungsorten (im Freien ohne Abdeckung) mit Betauung oder mit betauungsfreier Feuchte
und an Aufstellungsorten mit elektromagnetischen Störungen aufgestellt sind.
Soweit nicht anders angegeben, handelt es sich bei allen in dieser Europäischen Norm verwendeten Drücken um Überdrücke.
Wenn mehr als ein Zählertyp zur Prüfung eingereicht wird, ist es notwendig, jeden Zählertyp gegen diese Europäische Norm zu prüfen.
Die Abschnitte 1 bis 15 und Anhang C gelten nur für Bauart und Typprüfung.
ANMERKUNG Siehe Anhang A für Produktionsanforderungen.
