14. The manufacturer shall specify the rated operating conditions for the instrument, in particular—
(a)the flowrate range of the cold water, the values for which shall fulfil the following conditions—
(i)Q3/Q1 ≥ 10;
(ii)Q2/Q1= 1.6;
(iii)Q4/Q3 = 1.25,
and for 5 years from the date of entry into force of the Directive the ratio Q2/Q1 may be 1.5, 2.5, 4 or 6.3;
(b)the temperature range of the cold water, the values for which shall be 0.1°C to and including 30°C;
(c)the relative pressure of the cold water, the range being 0.3 bar to at least 10 bar at Q3; and
(d)for the power supply, the nominal value of the AC voltage supply and/or the limits of DC supply.
