1.0 SCOPE
1.1 General
This standard covers the supply of positive displacement meters for custody
transfer. Unless otherwise noted, meters shall be manufactured in
accordance with the latest edition of the API Manual of Petroleum
Measurement, Chapter 5 Section 2, Measurement of Liquid Hydrocarbons by
Positive Displacement Meters.

1.2 Pressure Class

PN 20, PN 50, and PN 100 (ANSI 150, 300, 600)

2.0 REFERENCE PUBLICATIONS

Where reference is made to other publications, such references shall be
considered to refer to the latest edition of that publication. Some reference
publications are supplemented or qualified, or both, by specific requirements in
this standard; reference publications should therefore be applied only in the
context of this standard.

3.0 DEFINITIONS
The following definitions apply in this standard:

3.1 Fitting
Unless otherwise specified, for the purposes of this standard, the term fitting
shall include the following classes of fittings: flanges; wrought steel butt-
welding fittings; forged steel threaded and socket-welded fittings; and forged
steel branch outlet fittings.

3.2 Heat
Heat shall mean material produced from the same batch of steel tapped from
a melting furnace for forging, or rolling into plate and made into fittings or
flanges using the same forming, welding and heat treatment procedures.

3.3 NPS
NPS means nominal pipe size, and the NPS system of nominal size
designation is contained in Standards prepared by the American Society of
Mechanical Engineers.

3.4 PN
PN means pressure nominal and the PN system of nominal pressure class
designation is contained in standards prepared by the International
Organization for Standardization (ISO). The numerical part of the
designation approximates the maximum cold working pressure rating in bars
(100 kPa).

3.5 Pressure-containing parts

Those meter parts that, when assembled, form the chamber(s) designed to
contain the pressurized fluid; such parts include bodies, bonnets, covers,
end flanges, and butt-welding ends.

Units of Measure SI units, cubic meters per hour

4.2 Operating Conditions

The meter shall be designed to operate under the following conditions:

TABLE 4.2.A -- OPERATING CONDITIONS

Pressure Class Max. Operating Pressure (MOP) Design Temperature
PN 20 (ANSI 150) 1900 kPa
PN 50 (ANSI 300) 4960 kPa -29°C to 50°C
PN 100 (ANSI 600) 9930 kPa

Note: Product Temperature -5°C to 25°C

4.3 Pulse Transmitter

The meter shall include a photo-electric pulse security transmitter. The
transmitter shall have dual and complementary pulse output with the
electrical characteristics specified in table 4.3.A. The transmitter shall have
UL and CSA approval for Class 1, Division 1, Group D and meet NEMA 4
requirements.
