Verification versus calibration

– Custody transfer is subjected to the Metrology lawCustody transfer is subjected to the Metrology law

– Metrology law has restrictions of interference

– Verifications = law

– Calibrations = voluntary

Putting into use (2nd stage)

f l dNot for instruments already in use

New Approach Directive and is: “technology independent”

Part of the “CE-system”

Intention of Brussels: remove barriers to tradeIntention of Brussels: remove barriers to trade

National differences domestic / light / heavy industry, iwater in-out etc.

Note: re-verification and inspection are still a national issue!

Declare conformationOn which base can one declare conformity?

1. Harmonized Standards, published in the Official Journey (OJ)

2. Use of Normative Documents (OIML)Gas OIML R137 1 (GC R140)Gas = OIML R137-1 (GC = R140)Liquid = OIML R117-1

3. Opinion of Notified Body via for example:* GROWTH (MID-procedures)* WELMEC and so on.

Note!: Software is an issue in MID see Welmec Guide 7 2
