This standard BS 7405:1991 Guide to selection and application of flowmeters for the measurement of fluid flow in closed conduits is classified in these ICS categories:

• 17.120.10 Flow in closed conduits

This British Standard provides guidance on the selection and application of flowmeters. It classifies them into ten major groups and covers the basic operating principles and application of each group. Also included is information on secondary instrumentation and some aspects of flowmeter calibration. The scope is restricted to closed conduit measurements in circular or non-circular cross section and therefore open channel systems are not included in the guide.

A bibliography containing details of the references in the text, is given in Appendix A.

NOTE The titles of the publications referred to in this standard are listed on the inside back cover.

Also deals with secondary instrumentation and some aspects of calibration.
