HA ADOTTATO LA PRESENTE DIRETTIVA :
Articolo 1
La presente direttiva si applica ai contatori d ' acqua fredda , che sono apparecchi di misura integratori destinati a determinare in modo continuo il volume dell ' acqua che li attraversa ( escluso ogni altro liquido ) . Tali contatori comprendono un dispositivo di misurazione che aziona un dispositivo indicatore . L ' acqua è considerata « fredda » quando la sua temperatura è compresa fra 0° e 30° C .
Articolo 2
I contatori d ' acqua fredda ai quali possono essere apposti i marchi e i contrassegni CEE sono descritti nell ' allegato della presente direttiva . Essi formano oggetto di un ' approvazione CEE del modello e sono soggetti alla verifica prima CEE .
Gli Stati membri non possono rifiutare , vietare o limitare l ' immissione sul mercato e in servizio di contatori d ' acqua fredda muniti del contrassegno di approvazione CEE del modello e del marchio di verifica prima CEE per motivi attinenti alle loro qualità metrologiche .
Articolo 4
1 . Gli Stati membri mettono in vigore le disposizioni legislative , regolamentari e amminisatrative necessarie per adeguarsi alla presente direttiva entro un termine di diciotto mesi a decorrere dalla notifica e ne informano immediatamente la Commissione . 2 .

1.3 . Portata massima : Qmax
La portata massima Qmax è la portata più alta alla quale il contatore deve poter funzionare per intervalli di tempo limitati senza guastarsi n rispettando gli errori massimi tollerati e senza superare il valore massimo della caduta di pressione .
1.4 . Portata nominale : Qn
la portata nominale Qn è uguale alla...
