Abstract: Since, in any measurement system, there is always some error present, it is desirable to have a method for determining the amount of error and correcting for it. There are three basic types of meter provers used for this purpose: 1. Gravimetric - The reference prover is a tank mounted on a weigh scale. The correct volume is determined by using the specific gravity or density of the fluid to connect the weight of the liquid to a volume. 2. Volumetric - The reference prover is an open-tank calibrated to deliver or contain a certain volume at 60F, 3. Displacement - This prover operates on the principle of displacing a known volume of liquid. Displacement of liquid is accomplished by forcing a displacer through a calibrated section of pipe.
