Testing of Automatic Temperature-Compensating Systems
Effective Dec 1, 2017(See Revision Note #1 at chapter heading for Agr 1400) #7462, eff 3-21-01; ss by #9416, INTERIM, eff 3-13-09, EXPIRED: 9-9-09 New. #9639, eff 1-20-10; ss by #12424, eff 12-1-17 (See Revision Note #2 at chapter heading for Agr 1400)Commissioner, Department of Agriculture, Markets, and Food
(a) On devices equipped with automatic temperature-compensating systems, normal tests shall be conducted as follows:
- (1) By comparing the compensated volume indicated or recorded to the actual delivered volume corrected to 60 degrees Fahrenheit; and
- (2) With the temperature-compensating system deactivated, comparing the uncompensated volume indicated or recorded to the actual delivered volume.
- (b) The first test of an automatic temperature-compensating system shall be performed in the "as found" condition.
- (c) On devices that indicate or record both the compensated and uncompensated volume for each delivery, the tests in (a)(1) and (a)(2) above may be performed as a single test, otherwise 2 separate tests as indicated in (a)(1) and (a)(2) above shall be performed.
- (d) Corrections shall be made for any changes in volume resulting from the differences in the liquid temperatures between the time of passage through the meter and the time of volumetric determination in the prover.
- (e) The delivered quantities for each test shall be the same size.
