2.3 Intended use
MQMe Quantometers are designed for the measurement of the volume of combustible gases in the 1st, 2nd and 3rd
families of gases (see also section 3 “Applications for the MQMe Quantometer”, page 5), processed and purified biogas and
air, as well as other inert, non-aggressive and non-explosive gases that are used during operation.
Depending on the variant, the permissible operating pressure range extends up to 16 bar absolute (ANSI 150 optional), the
gas temperature range from -20°C to +55°C.
No other use is authorized.
The manufacturer is not liable for damages resulting from improper or inappropriate use.
2.4 Warranty
Our General Terms and Conditions of Sale as most recently amended apply. Any deviating agreements do not restrict the
statutory rights of the consumer.
Any guarantee beyond this requires a contract and excludes software updates, consumables and vandalism to components.
3 Applications for the MQMe Quantometer
The MQMe Quantometer is designed for metering the volume of natural gas used within a company and is approved in
accordance with European Regulation 2014/68/EU.
The MQMe Quantometer can be installed in potentially explosive atmospheres in category 1G (ATEX/IECEx Ex Zone 0)
Ex ia II C T4 Ga (see Annex B, page 33).
• The MQMe Quantometer is suitable for measuring the volume of the following gases:
• Natural gas, town gas, propane, butane, ethylene, air, nitrogen, noble gases, liquid gas
• Biogas*
• Natural gas with a maximum H
2
content of 20%
• Other gases can be metered on request
The MQMe Quantometer is not suitable for oxygen and highly corrosive gases, acetylene and other aggressive gases
The MQMe Quantometer should not be used in the presence of strong pulsations. These conditions will increase the
number of measurement errors and could reduce the service life of the MQMe Quantometer.
Possible damage to the MQMe caused by aggressive gases
*Biogas – Please observe our special installation conditions, only in connection with installing an oil pump.
