These water meters shall incorporate devices, which indicate the integrated volume.
In the case where water meters having a value of Q3 > 160 m3/h, the test schedule may make provisions for modification of the Reference Conditions, to meet individual test laboratory limitations, when testing specifically for endurance or for performance under Influence Quantities.
