EN 13352:2002
(Main)Specification for the performance of automatic tank contents gauges
General Information
- Abstract
This European Standard specifies the minimum performance requirements for various classes of automa-tic tank contents gauges which are limited to static tanks of shop fabricated manufacture both metallic and non metallic, underground and above ground which do not exceed 100 000 l in capacity or 5 m in height.
It is applicable to gauges for fuels (products) which are flammable, having a flash point up to but not exceeding 100 °C, stored at premises (e.g. filling stations) at which fuel is dispensed for use in vehicles and other forms of transportation. This European Standard applies to gauges suitable for use at ambient tempera-tures and subject to normal operational pressure variations.
Liquefied gases are not covered by this standard.
This European Standard relates to the measurement of product level, measurement of product tempe-rature and detection of the presence of free water.
The gauges covered by this standard are not intended for use in meeting legal metrology requirements.
