Measurement of fluid flow in closed conduits -- Guidance to the selection, installation and use of Coriolis meters (mass flow, density and volume flow measurements)
This International Standard gives guidelines for the selection, installation, calibration, performance and operation of Coriolis meters for the determination of mass flow, density, volume flow and other related parameters of fluids. It also gives appropriate considerations regarding the fluids to be measured.
The primary purpose of Coriolis meters is to measure mass flow. However, some of these meters offer additional possibilities for determining the density and temperature of fluids. From the measurement of these three parameters, volume flow and other related parameters can be determined.
The content of this International Standard is primarily applied to the metering of liquids. This International Standard also gives guidance within specified limits, to the metering of other fluids, mixtures of solids or gas in liquids, and mixtures of liquids. Although Coriolis meters may be used for gas measurement, specific guidance for gas measurement is not within the scope of this International Standard.
