Water meters for cold potable water and hot water - Part 5: Installation requirements (ISO 4064-5:2014)

This part of ISO 4064 applies to water meters used to meter the volume of cold potable water and hot
water flowing through a fully charged, closed conduit. These water meters incorporate devices which
indicate the integrated volume.
This part of ISO 4064 specifies criteria for the selection of single, combination and concentric water
meters, associated fittings, installation, special requirements for meters, and the first operation of new
or repaired meters to ensure accurate constant measurement and reliable reading of the meter.
In addition to meters based on mechanical principles, this part of ISO 4064 also applies to water
meters based on electrical or electronic principles, and to water meters based on mechanical principles
incorporating electronic devices, used to measure the volume of cold potable water and hot water. It also
applies to electronic ancillary devices. Ancillary devices are optional. However, national or international
regulations may make some ancillary devices mandatory in relation to the utilization of the water meter.
The recommendations of this part of ISO 4064 apply to water meters, irrespective of technology, defined
as integrating measuring instruments continuously determining the volume of water flowing through
them.
NOTE Any national regulations apply in the country of use.

Vodomeri za merjenje hladne pitne vode in vroče vode - 5. del: Zahteve za vgradnjo (ISO 4064-5:2014)

Ta del standarda ISO 4064 se uporablja za vodomere za merjenje pretoka hladne pitne vode in vroče vode, ki teče skozi zaprto cev s polnim pretokom. Ti vodomeri imajo vgrajene naprave, ki prikazujejo vgrajen pretok.
Ta del standarda ISO 4064 določa merila za izbor enojnih, kombiniranih in koncentričnih
vodomerov, povezane fitinge, namestitev, posebne zahteve za vodomere in prvo delovanje novih ali popravljenih vodomerov, da se zagotovi točno stalno merjenje in zanesljivo odčitavanje vodomera.
Poleg mehansko delujočih vodomerov se ta del standarda ISO 4064 uporablja za električno ali elektronsko delujoče vodomere in vodomere, delujoče na podlagi mehanskih načel z vgrajenimi elektronskimi napravami, ki se uporabljajo za merjenje pretoka hladne pitne vode in vroče vode. Uporablja se tudi za elektronske pomožne naprave. Pomožne naprave so izbirne. Kljub temu lahko nacionalni ali mednarodni predpisi določajo obvezno uporabo nekaterih pomožnih naprav v povezavi z uporabo vodomerov.
Priporočila iz tega dela standarda ISO 4064 veljajo za vodomere, ki so opredeljeni kot integrirani merilni instrumenti za konstantno določanje pretoka vode, ki teče skoznje, ne glede na tehnologijo.
OPOMBA: Veljajo vsi nacionalni predpisi v državi uporabe.

Annex ZA
(informative)

Relationship between this European Standard and the essential
requirements of Directive 2014/32/EU aimed to be covered
This European Standard has been prepared under a Commission’s standardization request Mandate to
CEN and CENELEC for standardisation in the field of measuring instruments “M/374 EN” to provide one
voluntary means of conforming to essential requirements of Directive 2014/32/EC EU of the European
Parliament and the Council of 26 February 2014 on measuring instruments (Text with EEA relevance).
Once this standard is cited in the Official Journal of the European Union under that Directive
2014/32/EU, compliance with the normative clauses of this standard given in Table ZA.1 confers,
within the limits of the scope of this standard, a presumption of conformity with the corresponding
essential requirements of that Directive 2014/32/EU, and associated EFTA regulations.
Introduction:
The column “Comment” the term "Addressed" indicates the compliance between EN ISO 4064-5:2014
and the relevant requirement in Directive 2014/32/EU. The term "Not (fully) addressed" indicates that
compliance may not (fully) be realised, whilst "Addressed" may also be qualified in other ways. In the
case the requirement is "Not fully addressed", a short statement may explain what is covered. The
indication “Not applicable” means that the requirement in Annex I of Directive 2014/32/EU is not
relevant for Water Meters
The original Directive 2004/22/EU had been amended by Directive 137/2009/EC. These have been
fully replaced by Directive 2014/32/EU. This latest directive has already been amended by Directive
2015/13/EU.
The numbering in the first column will reflects the structure of the new Directive 2014/32/EU.
For purpose of cross-reference the second column indicates the structure of the original Directive
2004/22/EU.

This part of ISO 4064 applies to water meters used to meter the volume of cold potable water and hot
water flowing through a fully charged, closed conduit. These water meters incorporate devices which
indicate the integrated volume.
This part of ISO 4064 specifies criteria for the selection of single, combination and concentric water
meters, associated fittings, installation, special requirements for meters, and the first operation of new
or repaired meters to ensure accurate constant measurement and reliable reading of the meter.
In addition to meters based on mechanical principles, this part of ISO 4064 also applies to water
meters based on electrical or electronic principles, and to water meters based on mechanical principles
incorporating electronic devices, used to measure the volume of cold potable water and hot water. It also
applies to electronic ancillary devices. Ancillary devices are optional. However, national or international
regulations may make some ancillary devices mandatory in relation to the utilization of the water meter.
The recommendations of this part of ISO 4064 apply to water meters, irrespective of technology, defined
as integrating measuring instruments continuously determining the volume of water flowing through
them.
NOTE Any national regulations apply in the country of use.

adaptor
additional mechanical device fitted into a connection interface on location in order
to combine an unmodified cartridge meter of one geometry with a connection interface of another
geometry
3.4
converter
connection interface consisting of several parts produced as a complete unit prior to
installation into the supply system
Note 1 to entry: No assembly work is to be done on location other than the installation of the complete interface.
Conversion is related to either change of flow pattern, change of flow direction or extension of seat depth.
4 Criteria for the selection of water meters
4.1 General considerations
The type, metrological characteristics, and sizes of water meters should be determined according to the
operating conditions of the installation and the environmental class(es) demanded, taking into account,
particularly, the following:
— the available supply pressure;
— the physical and chemical characteristics of the water, including water temperature and water
quality (suspended particles);
— the acceptable pressure loss across the meter;
— the expected flow rates: the flow rates Q and Q of the meter (as defined in ISO 4064-1:2014|OIML R 49-
1 3
1:2013, Clause 3) shall be compatible with the expected flow rate conditions of the installations,
including the water flow direction(s);
— the suitability of the meter type for the intended mechanical, climatic, electrical, and hydraulic
conditions, including ambient relative humidity, vibrations, electrostatic discharges, continuous
magnetic field, and electromagnetic disturbances;
— the available space and pipe work to install the meter and fittings;
— the possibility of d
