Water meters for cold potable water and hot water - Part 1: Metrological and technical requirements (ISO 4064-1:2014)

EN ISO 4064-1 specifies the metrological and technical requirements for water meters for cold potable water and hot water flowing through a fully charged, closed conduit. These water meters incorporate devices which indicate the integrated volume. In addition to water meters based on mechanical principles, this part of ISO 4064|OIML R 49 applies to devices based on electrical or electronic principles, and mechanical principles incorporating electronic devices, used to measure the volume of cold potable water and hot water. This part of ISO 4064|OIML R 49 also applies to electronic ancillary devices. Ancillary devices are optional. However, it is possible for national or regional regulations to render some ancillary devices mandatory in relation to the utilization of water meters.

1.1 Der vorliegende Teil der ISO 4064/OIML R 49 gilt für Wasserzähler zur Volumenmessung von kaltem Trinkwasser und heißem Wasser, das durch eine voll gefüllte, geschlossene Leitung fließt. Diese Wasserzähler müssen mit Einrichtungen versehen sein, die das summierte Volumen anzeigen.
1.2 Der vorliegende Teil der ISO 4064/OIML R 49 legt die Bedingungen fest, die die Wasserzähler erfüllen müssen, um den Anforderungen des gesetzlichen Messwesens in den Ländern zu entsprechen, in denen diese Messgeräte der staatlichen Aufsicht unterliegen.
1.3 Der vorliegende Teil der ISO 4064/OIML R 49 gilt außerdem für Wasserzähler nach elektrischem oder elektronischem Funktionsprinzip und für Wasserzähler nach mechanischem Funktionsprinzip mit elektronischen Einrichtungen, die zur Messung des Durchflussvolumens von heißem Wasser und von kaltem Trinkwasser
dienen. Er gilt außerdem für elektronische Zusatzeinrichtungen. Zusatzeinrichtungen sind optional.
Jedoch können in nationalen oder internationalen Regelungen einige Zusatzeinrichtungen hinsichtlich der
Verwendung von Wasserzählern verbindlich vorgeschrieben sein.
1.4 Zusätzlich zu den in diesem Teil festgelegten Anforderungen sind Untersuchungs- und Prüfverfahren in
Teil 2 enthalten, ein Format des Prüfberichts ist in Teil 3 enthalten und es gibt zusätzliche technische
Anforderungen in Teil 4 sowie Einbaubedingungen in Teil 5.

Compteurs d'eau potable froide et d'eau chaude - Partie 1: Exigences métrologiques et techniques (ISO 4064-1:2014)

L'ISO 4064-1:2014|OIML R 49-1:2013 spécifie les exigences métrologiques et techniques applicables aux compteurs d'eau potable froide et d'eau chaude circulant dans une conduite fermée entièrement chargée. Ces compteurs d'eau comportent des dispositifs indiquant le volume compté.
En plus des compteurs d'eau dont le fonctionnement est basé sur des principes mécaniques, l'ISO 4064-1:2014|OIML R 49-1:2013 s'applique aux dispositifs dont le fonctionnement est basé sur un principe électrique ou électronique, ainsi qu'à un fonctionnement mécanique incluant des dispositifs électroniques utilisés pour mesurer le volume débité d'eau potable froide et d'eau chaude.
L'ISO 4064-1:2014|OIML R 49-1:2013 s'applique également à des dispositifs électroniques auxiliaires. Les dispositifs auxiliaires sont facultatifs. Il est cependant possible que des réglementations nationales ou régionales rendent certains dispositifs auxiliaires obligatoires selon l'utilisation du compteur d'eau.

Vodomeri za merjenje hladne pitne vode in vroče vode - 1. del: Metrološke in tehnične zahteve (ISO 4064-1:2014)

Standard EN ISO 4064-2 določa metrološke in tehnične zahteve za vodomere za merjenje hladne pitne vode in vroče vode, ki teče skozi zaprto cev s polnim pretokom. Ti vodomeri imajo vgrajene naprave, ki prikazujejo vgrajen pretok. Poleg mehansko delujočih vodomerov se ta del standarda ISO 4064|OIML R 49 uporablja za električno ali elektronsko delujoče naprave in naprave, delujoče na podlagi mehanskih načel z vgrajenimi elektronskimi napravami, ki se uporabljajo za merjenje pretoka hladne pitne vode in vroče vode. Ta del standarda ISO 4064|OIML R 49 se uporablja tudi za elektronske pomožne naprave. Pomožne naprave so izbirne. Kljub temu lahko nacionalni ali regijski predpisi določajo obvezno uporabo nekaterih pomožnih naprav v povezavi z uporabo vodomerov.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2, www.iso.org/directives.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of any
patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or on

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 4064-1 was prepared jointly by Technical Committee ISO/TC 30, Measurement of fluid flow in closed
conduits, Subcommittee SC 7, Volume methods including water meters and OIML Technical Subcommittee
TC 8/SC 5 Water meters.
This fourth edition cancels and partially replaces the third edition (ISO 4064-1:2005), which has been
technically revised. Some provisions of the third edition are addressed in the new Part 4.
This edition of ISO 4064-1 is identical with the corresponding edition of OIML R 49-1, which has been issued
concurrently.
ISO 4064 consists of the following parts, under the general title Water meters intended for the metering of cold
potable water and hot water:
 Part 1: Specification of metrological and technical requirements
 Part 2: Specification of test methods
 Part 3: Specification of test report format
 Part 4: Specification of non-metrological requirements not covered in Part 1
 Part 5: Specification of installation requirements
