Product description
Subject to change without notice
2.2.2 Gas flow meter
An internal flow conditioner rectifies the gas flow in the gas flow meter so that flow profile
disturbances caused by pipe bends in the inlet or outlet sections or components projecting
into the pipe (e.g., a thermowell) have no influence on measuring results.
The gas flow meter can be exchanged without taking the adapter out of the pipeline.
The gas flow meter is fitted with:
● Control unit
● Optical and electrical interfaces
● Measuring cell with ultrasonic transducers
● Electronics.
The product variant with volume conversion and integrated pressure and temperature
sensors also has the calibrated pressure sensor and calibrated temperature sensor fitted
in the gas flow meter.
