Table 1 General characteristics

Destined for the measurement ofGas volume
Environmental classesM1/E2
Accuracy class0.5
Operating pressure range for meters equipped with standard mountsThe spoolpiece and transducers may be used at a pressure between 7 and 425 bar(g). For this pressure range the flow characteristics as mentioned in table 2 are applicable. If the minimum pressure is between 3,5 and 7 bar(g), the values for $Q_{\mathrm{max}}$ have to be reduced to 50% of the values indicated in table 2. For T32 transducers only: if the minimum pressure is between 7 and 10 bar(g), the values for $Q_{\mathrm{max}}$ have to be reduced to 80% of the values indicated in table 2. If the minimum pressure is between 3,5 and 7 bar(g), the values for $Q_{\mathrm{max}}$ have to be reduced to 50% of the values indicated in table 2. The measuring range shall be 1:20 minimally.
Operating pressure range for meters equipped with Isolated Mounts on Chordal pathsThe spoolpiece and transducers may be used at a pressure between: -0 and 105 bar(g) for meter size 4 to 12 inch; -8 and 105 bar(g) for meter size 14 to 42 inch. For these pressure ranges, the flow characteristics as mentioned in table 2 are applicable. The T200 transducers are always installed based on isolated mounts for meter size 4 to 12 inch with a pressure range of 0 up to and including 259 bar.

Notes:

  • If higher values are chosen for $ \mathrm{v}{\mathrm{min}} $ and/or lower values for $ \mathrm{v}{\mathrm{max}} $ it has to be taken into account that $ \mathrm{v}{\mathrm{min}}\leq0,05\mathrm{v}{\mathrm{max}} $ and $ \mathrm{v_{t}}\leq0,2\mathrm{v}_{\mathrm{max}}. $

The flow rates can be calculated as follows:

$$ Q = v \cdot \frac {1}{4} \cdot \pi \cdot D ^ {2} \cdot 3 6 0 0 $$

Where:

Q = flow rate [m $ ^{3} / \mathrm{h} ]$

v = velocity [m/s]

D = diameter [m]
