GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
5. MEASUREMENT & MEASUREMENT EQUIPMENT con't
(2) by correcting the error, if the quantity of percentage
of error is ascertainable by calibration, test, or
mathematical calculation, or if neither of the two
foregoing procedures are applicable,
(3) by relating the quantity of receipt or delivery to
receipts or deliveries during periods under similar
conditions when the measurement equipment was deemed
to have been registering accurately.
5.8 Electronic Natural Gas Measurement (EGM) Technical Requirements
(a) Accuracy. Where EGM is used, the system shall use
instruments designed to provide overall measurement accuracy
of +1.0% of flow, taking into account all the sources of
error, including calibrated span of instruments, linearity,
hysteresis, repeatability, ambient temperature, stability,
vibration, and power supply fluctuation. To achieve this
degree of accuracy, transmitters with a published accuracy
of +0.10% shall be utilized. Differential Pressure
Transmitters of a type that self-compensate for static
pressure effect or manufacturer's published compensation
factor shall be programmed into the flow computer (RTU).
All instruments shall operate on a temperature range of -30
degrees Fahrenheit to +120 degrees Fahrenheit and a non-
condensing relative humidity range of 0 to 95%. The RTU
shall be designed and installed to withstand mechanical
shock of at least 1 G, and neither Shipper nor Transporter
shall be held responsible for any accidental damage to the
equipment as a result of mechanical shock of over 1 G.
