transmitted to a data-receiving device by electronic pulse
transmitters mounted on each meter, and each transaction is
automatically recorded.
5.8.4.2
Turbine. Use flange-connected, steel bodied turbine
meters of the desired pressure and flow rating for the
applicable service requirement. Ensure meter has temperature-
compensation and adjustable calibration. Ensure all
supporting equipment for meter is compatible with the turbine
meter selected. Provide an accuracy of plus or minus 0.5
percent when used for custody transfer. Consult the
appropriate Service Headquarters for requirements for the
meter to communicate to a remote location or equipment.
Consider the use of a card-operated or key-operated data
acquisition system. Cards or keys, as appropriate, are coded
to identify the receiver of the fuel and to allow access to
the fuel. The quantities taken are transmitted to a data-
receiving device by electronic pulse transmitters mounted on
each meter, and each transaction is automatically recorded.
5.8.5
Strainers. Require a strainer to protect
centrifugal pumps, unless it precludes meeting the set
positive suction head of the pump. Whether or not strainers
are installed on the suction side of centrifugal pumps,
install a spool piece so that temporary strainers can be
installed during startup of the system. Strainers are
required on the suction side of all positive displacement
pumps and meters. Strainers are not required upstream of
filter/separators or hydraulically operated diaphragm control
valves, except they are required upstream of filter/separators
which are upstream of operating storage tanks. Also:
a) Use flanged strainers constructed of steel and
fitted with removable baskets of fine Monel metal or stainless
steel mesh with large mesh reinforcements.
