Introduction
This amendment to EN 1434-1 is divided into 2 main areas. The first being the new clauses – i.e. clauses which are
not present in the 1997 version. The second being the amended clauses, where the entire clause – not only the
changes – is presented.
It has been prepared in such a way that it can be cut and pasted into the old version.
A new descriptor has been added: cooling meters.
1 New clauses
4.18 Cooling meter
A heat meter designed for cooling applications at low temperatures, normally covering the temperature range 2 C
to 30 C and  up to 20 K.
4.19 Flow direction
The flow direction is described by the terms flow and return. Flow meaning the forward direction to the system and
return meaning output from the system. (Flow/return means high/low temperature for a heat meter but low/high
temperature for a cooling meter).
4.20 Electrical pulse
An electrical signal (voltage, current or resistance), that departs from an initial level for a limited duration of time
and ultimately returns to the original level.
4.21 Pulse output and input device
Two types of pulse devices are defined and specified:
a) the pulse output device;
b) the pulse input device.
Both devices are functional parts of flow sensor, calculator or auxiliary devices such as remote displays or input
devices of control systems.
4.22 Maximum admissible temperature
The maximum temperature of the heat conveying liquid the meter can withstand in combination with the maximum
admissible working pressure and the permanent flow rate for short periods of time (< 200 hours in the total life time
of the unit) without a significant fault after the exposure to this maximum admissible temperature.

4.23 Long life flow sensor
A flow sensor designed to have a longer lifetime that a normal flow sensor which typically lasts for 5 years.
2 Amended clauses
1 Scope
This European Standard applies to heat meters, that is to instruments intended for measuring the heat which, in
a heat-exchange circuit, is absorbed or given up by a liquid called the heat-conveying liquid. The heat meter
indicates the quantity of heat in legal units.
Electrical safety requirements are not covered by this standard.
Pressure safety requirements are not covered by this standard.
Surface mounted sensors are not covered by this standard.
Part 1 specifies general requirements.
NEW TEXT
6.1.2 The casing of a heat meter shall protect the interior parts against water and dust ingress. The
minimum forms of enclosure protection shall be IP54 for heating applications and IP65 for cooling applications
for equipment that is to be installed into pipework and IP52 for other enclosures, all in accordance with
IEC 1010-1.
NEW TEXT
6.3.2 Heat meters shall be so designed, that, in the event of a failure or interruption of the external power
supply (mains or external DC), the meter indication of energy remains accessible for a minimum of one year.
The supplier shall specify how the indication of energy is handled in case of a failure or interruption in the
external power supply (mains or external DC).
NOTE The energy indication can either be stored in a permanent way (memory) at certain intervals, or it can be stored
through a controlled shut-down process (powered from an internal source).
NEW TEXT
6.4 Protection against fraud
Heat meters shall have protective devices which can be sealed in such a way, that after sealing, both before
and after the heat meter has been correctly installed, there is no possibility of dismantling, removing, or altering
the heat meter or its adjustment devices without evident damage to the device(s) or seal(s).
Means shall also be provided for meters with external power supply, either to give protection against the meter
being disconnected from the power supply, or to make it evident, that this has taken place. This requirement
does not apply to meters with external power supply with automatic switchover to internal battery supply.
NOTE Embodiment of an hour's run counter in the meter casing will make it evident if the power supply has been
disconnected.

NEW TEXT
7.1 Temperature difference
The ratio of the upper and lower limits of the temperature difference shall not be less than 10, with the exception
of heat meters intended for cooling circuits. The lower limit shall be stated by the supplier to be either 1, 2, 3, 5
or 10 K. The preferred lower limit is 3 K for heating applications.
NOTE For temperature difference values below 3 K the temperature test equipment should be of the highest precision.
