The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each memb
15、er body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Ele
16、ctrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 3. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for votin
17、g. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this International Standard may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying an
18、y or all such patent rights. International Standard ISO 4512 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 28, Petroleum products and lubricants, Subcommittee SC 3, Static petroleum measurement.ISO 4512:2000(E) vi Introduction This International Standard describes the equipment required to measure the
19、level of petroleum and petroleum products contained in a tank or container. Calculation of the quantity of petroleum and petroleum products contained in a tank or container also requires that the temperature of the liquid and its density are determined. The equipment required and the methods of dete
20、rmination of temperature and density are described in other International Standards to which reference should be made.INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 4512:2000(E)1 Petroleum and liquid petroleum products Equipment for measurement of liquid levels in storage tanks Manual methods 1 Scope This International
21、 Standard specifies the requirements for the equipment required to measure manually the liquid level or the corresponding volume of petroleum and petroleum products stored in tanks and containers. 2 Normative references The following normative documents contain provisions which, through reference in
22、 this text, constitute provisions of this International Standard. For dated references, subsequent amendments to, or revisions of, any of these publications do not apply. However, parties to agreements based on this International Standard are encouraged to investigate the possibility of applying the
23、 most recent editions of the normative documents indicated below. For undated references, the latest edition of the normative document referred to applies.

28、rom which the measurements of the oil and water depths are taken NOTE The dipping datum-point usually corresponds with the datum-plate but, when this is not so, the difference in level between the datum-plate and the datum-point should be allowed for in the calibration table. 3.7 free water water, p

30、ed or restricted conditions (via a vapour lock valve), the term “gauging access point” may be used. 3.9 gauging process of taking all the necessary measurements in a tank in order to determine the quantity of liquid which it contains NOTE For the purposes of this International Standard, gauging refe

32、urements of dip or ullage are made 3.11 identification marks marks on a dip-tape that record the temperature and tension at which the tape was calibrated NOTE Other marks may include the total length of the tape and/or its conformance with this International Standard. 3.12 master dip-tape dip-tape a

34、/or water interface NOTE Other optional measurements such as density may also be provided.ISO 4512:2000(E)3 3.14 pressure tank storage tank designed to operate at pressures above atmospheric NOTE For convenience, this type of tank is divided into two general classes: low-pressure tanks, used for vol

42、 shall be obtained from a competent authority and shall be traceable to national or international standards with a 95 % confidence limits uncertainty, which is within the maximum permissible error requirements specified in this International Standard (5.9). 4.2 Equipment which has been subjected to
43、repair shall not be used for reference purposes, but may be used for other purposes if it has been verified by a competent authority and found to comply with the requirements of this International Standard. 5 Dip-tapes 5.1 General 5.1.1 Dip-tapes shall be used in conjunction with a standard dip-weig
44、ht or ullage-rule or water-finding rule described in clauses 7, 8 and 9 (see Figure 1). They shall be wound onto a drum contained within a frame equipped with a handle (see Figure 2). It is strongly recommended that dip-weights, ullage-rules and water-finding rules are detached from the dip-tape whe
45、n either carried or stored to avoid constant flexing of the dip-tape at the point of attachment, leading to breakage of the dip-tape. 5.1.2 The dip-tape, hanging device (see 5.5) and dip-weight shall be so constructed that the zero of the system is at the lower face of the dip-weight; i.e. the dip-t
46、ape, hanging device and dip-weight form one continuous system. Graduations shall be continuous throughout the length of the tape. NOTE In some countries, local metrological regulations may require that the graduations are also continuous throughout the tape/weight combination. 5.2 Construction Dip-t
47、apes shall be constructed from one continuous length of steel. 5.3 Material The steel from which the tape is manufactured shall have the following specification (or shall be a steel of similar specification): a) high carbon content (mass fraction of carbon of approximately 0,8 %); b) tensile strengt
48、h of between 1 600 N/mm 2 and 1 850 N/mm 2 ; c) coefficient of linear expansion of (11 1) 10 6 C 1 . For gauging certain petrochemical products, alternative material such as stainless steel may be specified. In this case, a length-correction table according to temperature may be required.ISO 4512:20
