▷
Once the required minimum testing time has
been reached, the measurement can be termi-
nated – marker 4.
4
Briefly press the selection key in order to end
the measurement.
▷
Measurement on the unit under test stops au-
tomatically once the full number of measuring
unit revolutions has been completed – marker 5.
▷
A beep acknowledges the end of the measure-
ment.
▷
Measurement is terminated automatically after
5 hours.
5
Stop the test on the master meter – marker 6.
▷
The measurements are then available.
6
Read off the flow rate on the master meter or
calculate if necessary:
a) taking into account the inherent error of the
master meter:
Q
act,N
= V
N
x 3600 s/h / ((1+F
N
/100) x Δt
N
)
b) If the inherent error of the master meter has
already been taken into account in the dis-
played volume (V
N
= V
act,N
):
Q
act,N
= V
act,N
x 3600 s/h / Δt
N

Calculate the flow rate on the unit under test:
Q
P
= V
P
/Δt
P
for BK-G...ET, the following applies: V
P
= V

The accuracy is checked by comparing the flow
rates. The pressure and temperature values of
the unit under test corrected with reference to
the master meter have already been taken into
account here:
F
P
= 100% x (((Q
P
x p
P
x T
N
) / (Q
act,N
x p
N
x T
P
)) - 1)
The following applies:
p
P
= relevant absolute pressure on the unit under
test
The following also applies:
for BK-G...E: T
P
= (273.15 + {t
g
}) K
where t
g
= relevant gas temperature on the unit
under test in °C (display)
for BK-G...ET: T
P
= (273.15 + {t
b
}) K
where t
b
= 15°C (see page 15 (Technical data)):
T
P
= 288.15 K
for BK-G...ETe:
If Q
P
in step 7 is determined from the converted
volume V
b
, the following applies:
T
P
= (273.15 + {t
b
}) K (t
b
If Q
P
in step 7 is determined from the non-con-
verted volume V
P
, the following applies:
T
P
= (273.15 + {t
g
}) K
where t
g
= relevant gas temperature on the unit
under test in °C (display)

To activate the cyclic test on the unit under test,
briefly press the selection key on the index –
marker 7. The index will thus be “armed” for
measurement.
Start the test on the master meter – marker 8.
▷
As soon as one of the significant sensor posi-
tions has been detected, the unit changes to
measuring mode – marker 9.
Test is ended – marker 10.
4
Read off the test results on the unit under test.
▷
The measured values are updated with each 1/8
revolution of the measuring unit.
5
Compare the measurement results with the mas-
ter meter and determine the measuring deviation
on the unit under test:
a) taking into account the inherent error of the
master meter:
F
P
= 100% x (((V
P
x (1+F
N
/100) x p
P
x T
N
) /
(V
N
x p
N
x T
P
)) - 1)
b) If the inherent error of the master meter has al-
ready been taken into account in the displayed
volume (V
N
= V
act,N
), the following applies:
F
P
= 100% x (((V
P
x p
P
x T
N
) / (V
act,N
x p
N
x
T
P
)) - 1)
▷
The following applies: p
P
= relevant absolute
pressure on the unit under test
