It is recognized that during any transition period

17、to the metric system, sizes and dimensions need to be expressed in either the metric system or the inch-pound system or in both. In this document, both systems are used, with the inch-pound uNts given preference. In most cases, a soft conversion from existing inch-pound values is shown. Soft convers

18、ion implies a change in nomenclature only; in this document, the alternative nomenclatures (metric and inch-pound) are shown by using parentheses and can be used interchangeably. Hard conversion is used to express metric values in (closely equivalent) round inch-pound units. Bracketed values are not

19、 to be used interchangeably with the corresponding metric values. Nothing in this standard is to be considered as in any way indicating a measure of quality beyond compliance with the provisions it contains. It is designed to allow the construction and performance of displacement meters that may exc

20、eed the various provisions specified in any respect. In its preparation, recognition was intended to be given to the possibility of improvement through ingenuity of design. As progress takes place, revisions may become necessary. When they are believed desirable, recommendations should be forwarded

21、to the Chairman of ANSI B109 Committee, Operating and Engineering Section, American Gas Association, 400 North Capitol Street, NW, 41h Floor, Washington, DC 2OOO1. U.S.A. Users of this document should consult applicable federal, state and local regulations. The American Gas Association (AGA) does no

22、t, by the publication of this document, intend to present specifications that are not in compliance with applicable rules, and this document may not be construed as doing so. NOTICE: This American National Standard may be revised or withdrawn at any time. The procedures of the American National Stan

23、dards Institute, Inc. (ANSI) require that action be taken to reaffirm, revise or withdraw this standard no later than five years from the date of publication. When any revisions are deemed advisable, recommendations should be forwarded to the American Gas Association. A form is included for that pur

24、pose at the end of this standard.

26、NT OF THIS STANDARD Following approval of the Standard for Gas Displacemeni Meters (Under 500 Cubic Feet per Hour Capacity), ANSI B109.1, in 1973, a subcommittee was appointed to develop a standard covering rotary-type gas displacement meters. Five drafts of the standard were prepared and reviewed b

27、y the subcommittee before a final draft was prepared and submitted to American National Standards Committee B109 for its consideration on June 20, 1979. Subsequent to adoption by the committee, the first edition of the standard for rotary-type gas displacement meters was approved as American Nationa

28、l Standard by the American National Standards Institute, Inc., on April 14, 1980. The second edition was approved as American National Standard by the American National Standards Institute, Inc., on January 9, 1987. Major changes included the additions of: Part VI on Auxiliary Devices for Gas Meters

29、; Part VI1 on Test Methods and Equipment; and informative Appendices for bar coding of meters and auxiliary devices, and prover calibration. In the third edition, minor editorial changes were made. The third edition was approved on November 12.1992. This is the fourth edition of standard B109.3, in

30、which several addidons/deletions have been made to avoid any ambiguity, to make it more consistent and to improve upon some requirements. Substantive changes have been shown by a bar I I in the margin. STDaAGA BLD9-3-ENGL 2000 900883b OOOLYLY O75 I ACCREDITED STANDARDS COMMITTEE B109 GREGORY S. VERA

34、 2000 900BB3b 0001415 TOI SCOPE This standard applies to rotary-type positive displacement meters designed for revenue measurement of fuel gas. Part 1 comprises a list of definitions and terms used throughout the standard. Part II covers the construction requirements for qualifying new-type rotary m

35、eters. Part III covers the performance requirements for qualifying new meters and new-type rotary meters. Part IV covers “in-service performance requirements for rotary-type meters. Part V addresses installation requirements for these meters. Part VI pertains to auxiliary devices used with meters co

36、vered by this standard. Part VI1 covers test methods and equipment. 1 PART I DEFINITIONS 1.1 ACCURACY, METER. The degree to which a meter correctly measures the volume of gas passing through it, determined by comparing the volume registered by the meter with that registered by the prover. (See Appen

37、dix B for methods of expressing meter accuracy.) 1.2 ADAPTOR PLATE, INSTRUMENT. A specially designed plate mounted between a meter and an instrument to provide for a proper drive to the instrument. 1.3 AUTOMATIC INTEGRATORS 1.3.1 Recording Type.
