CEN/TC 92/WG 2 - General requirements

This document specifies definitions, requirements and testing of additional functionalities for water meters, without metrological impact, in combination with Additional Functionality Devices (AFD) and in response to EU/EFTA Mandate M/441 EN. These AFDs are considered as “ancillary devices” as defined in EN ISO 4064-1:2017 and EN ISO 4064-4:2014.
This document does not cover the changing of metrological software within the meter or the upload/download of metrological software.
NOTE   A manufacturer can claim compliance only for additional functionalities described in this document. It is not mandatory that an AFD complies with all additional functionalities described herein.

ISO 4064-2:2014|OIML R 49-2:2013 is applicable to the type evaluation and initial verification testing of water meters for cold potable water and hot water as defined in ISO 4064‑1:2014|OIML R 49‑1:2013. OIML Certificates of Conformity can be issued for water meters under the scope of the OIML Certificate System, provided that ISO 4064-2:2014|OIML R 49-2:2013, ISO 4064‑1:2014|OIML R 49‑1:2013 and ISO 4064‑3:2014|OIML R 49‑3:2013 are used in accordance with the rules of the system.
ISO 4064-2:2014|OIML R 49-2:2013 sets out details of the test programme, principles, equipment and procedures to be used for the type evaluation, and initial verification of a meter type.
The provisions of ISO 4064-2:2014|OIML R 49-2:2013 also apply to ancillary devices, if required by national regulations.
The provisions include requirements for testing the complete water meter and for testing the measurement transducer (including the flow or volume sensor) and the calculator (including the indicating device) of a water meter as separate units.

ISO 4064-1:2014|OIML R 49-1:2013 specifies metrological and technical requirements of 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, ISO 4064-1:2014|OIML R 49-1:2013 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.
ISO 4064-1:2014|OIML R 49-1:2013 also applies to electronic ancillary devices. Ancillary devices are optional. However, it is possible for national or regional regulations to make some ancillary devices mandatory in relation to the utilization of water meters.

ISO 4064-5:2014 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.
ISO 4064-5:2014 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, ISO 4064-5:2014 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 ISO 4064-5:2014 apply to water meters, irrespective of technology, defined as integrating measuring instruments continuously determining the volume of water flowing through them.

This European Standard specifies definitions, requirements and testing of additional functionalities for water meters, without metrological impact, in combination with Additional Functionality Devices (AFD) and in response to EU/EFTA Mandate M/441 EN. These AFDs are to be considered as “ancillary devices" as defined in EN 14154-1.
This European Standard does not cover the changing of metrological software within the meter or the upload/download of metrological software.
NOTE    A manufacturer can claim compliance only for additional functionalities described in this standard. It is not mandatory that an AFD complies with all additional functionalities described herein.

This document specifies criteria for selection of water meters, installation requirements and the first operation of new or repaired meters to ensure accurate constant measurement and reliable reading of the meter.
In applications where a water meter is legally required to conform to the requirements of the Measuring Instruments Directive, this document may be used to demonstrate conformity.
Where legal national requirements exist they shall in all cases take precedence over or supplement the specifications given in this part of this document.

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.

This document applies to water meters intended for residential, commercial, light industrial and industrial use, and specifies the test parameters and the test methods for water meters, irrespective of the design technologies, as specified in EN 14154-1:2005+A2, 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.
In the case where water meters having a value of Q3 > 160 m3/h, the test schedule may make provisions for modification of the Reference Conditions, to meet individual test laboratory limitations, when testing specifically for endurance or for performance under Influence Quantities.
Meters thus tested shall be marked so as to unambiguously indicate part compliance with this document. To augment this marking the meter manufacturer shall, in addition, be obliged to fully disclose the specific non compliance(s) due to the test laboratory limitations.
