This part of ISO 17089 specifies requirements and recommendations for ultrasonic gas flowmeters (USMs),
which utilize the transit time of acoustic signals to measure the flow of single phase homogenous gases in
closed conduits.
This part of ISO 17089 applies to transit time ultrasonic gas flowmeters used for custody transfer and
allocation metering, such as full-bore, reduced-area, high-pressure, and low-pressure meters or any
combination of these. There are no limits on the minimum or maximum sizes of the meter. This part of
ISO 17089 can be applied to the measurement of almost any type of gas, such as air, natural gas, and ethane.
Included are flow measurement performance requirements for meters of two accuracy classes suitable for
applications such as custody transfer and allocation measurement.
This part of ISO 17089 specifies construction, performance, calibration, and output characteristics of
ultrasonic meters for gas flow measurement and deals with installation conditions.
NOTE It is possible that national or other regulations apply which can be more stringent than those in this part of
ISO 17089.
