ASME MFC-8M

Abstract

This Standard describes the practices and means which allow the pressures at a head type primary device to be conveyed to the secondary device in a flow measurement system without introducing unnecessary measurement uncertainties. <br> Field Of Application <br> This Standard is concerned only with the transmission of the pressure difference developed by a head type primary flow element. It does not address the characteristics of the primary or secondary devices, or transducers or other instruments. Electrical transmission techniques are not considered. <br> References and Related Documents <br> The following is a list of publications referenced in this Standard.
