Perforated plate straightener
The following options are available for the straighteners:
Perforated plate straightener RMG L1 - L3
according to ISO 5167-1 and DIN 1952
Perforate plate straightener RMG LP-35
With the RMG turbine meters, these straighteners fulfill the requirements of technical
guideline G 13 and are approved with approval number D 81 / 7.211.10 for turbine
meters.

Standards / guidelines
All RMG turbine meters have passed upstream perturbation measurements accord-
ing to OIML recommendation IR-32/89, Annex A, with slight and heavy upstream per-
turbation. Therefore, this meter design fulfills the installation conditions according to
technical guideline G 13, section 1. The PTB testing vol. 29 and 30, Testing of vol-
ume gas meters with air at atmospheric pressure and high-pressure testing rules ap-
ply as a testing requirement. The RMG turbine meter TME400 conforms to EN12261.
The measuring accuracy in the range of 0.2 Q
max
to Q
max
is between 1.0 % to 1.5 %
(see chapter 1.4.2.9 Measuring accuracy). The TME400 has an electronic suppres-
sion by external shut down of the totalizer of the slow down cutoff of the turbine
wheel after the flow is stopped.
