ABSTRACT

With the agreement of the instrument manufacturer, the Environment Agency and Sira Certification Services, Evaluation International (EI) has obtained a number of MCERTS reports on water flowmeters which have been evaluated under the Continuous Water Monitoring System (CWMS). Evaluation International has prepared an introduction to the MCERTS Scheme and its objectives relating to performance standards and test procedures. The original evaluation results and the resulting MCERTS certificate(s) are also included in this EI Evaluation Report. In addition, the instrument manufacturer has been given the opportunity to comment on the report and, if received, the comments have been reproduced here in full. The overall objective is to make selected MCERTS reports freely available to EI members and to members of our sister organisations, WIB in the Netherlands, EXERA in France and NAMUR in Germany. The test procedures in this MCERTS report do not necessarily match the procedures that EI would use for full evaluations of instruments for measurement and control. It is possible, therefore, that EI members will ask for further evaluation work to be carried out on these instruments. If so, the work will be reported in a separate future EI report.
