本标准涵盖了通过重量校准法（GM）确定储罐和位移校准仪的基准校准仪体积（BPV）所需的具体程序、设备和计算。本标准提供了USC和SI单位，可在任何一种单位制中实施。两个单元的呈现都是为了方便用户，不一定是精确的转换。使用的单位系统通常由合同、监管要求、制造商或用户的校准程序确定。在本文件中，可追溯性问题通过参考美国国家标准与技术研究所（NIST）来解决。但是，可以参考其他适当的国家计量机构。本标准无意涵盖开展本标准所述工作的安全方面，用户有责任熟悉所有适用的安全工作实践。 用户还有义务遵守所有现有的联邦、州或地方法规[例如职业安全与健康管理局（OSHA）]，这些法规管理本标准中描述的活动类型，并熟悉所有此类安全与健康法规。

This standard covers the specific procedures, equipment, and calculations required to determine the base prover volume (BPV), of both tank and displacement provers by the gravimetric method of calibration (GM).This standard presents both USC and SI units, and may be implemented in either system of units. The presentation of both units is for the convenience of the user, and is not necessarily the exact conversions. The system of units to be used is typically determined by contract, regulatory requirement, the manufacturer, or the user's calibration program.Throughout this document issues of traceability are addressed by references to National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). However, other appropriate national metrology institutes can be referenced.There is no intent to cover safety aspects of conducting the work described in this standard, and it is the duty of the user to be familiar with all applicable safe work practices. It is also the duty of the user to comply with all existing federal, state, or local regulations [e.g. the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA)] that govern the types of activities described in this standard, and to be familiar with all such safety and health regulations.
