New Approach Directive and is: “technology independent”
Part of the “CE-system”
Intention of Brussels: remove barriers to trade
National differences domestic / light / heavy industry,
water i

10. Declare conformation
On 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)
R137-1
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
MID, 7.2

another 10 years
– Mix / match and equilty principle in Netherlands for
installed instruments

15. Putting into use…
use
Gasmeters & EVCD = Module F or D for
1st verifications
Liquidinstallations = Module F or D for
1st verifications
ifi ti
Certified verification officer = repair, maintenance,
re-verification i N th l d only
ifi ti in Netherlands l
Producer D for parts
Pre-calibrations liquid meters as part of F / D for
liquid installations. How to handle?
