Quantometro - 80mm Qmin 20 Qmax 400 m3/h - Mechanical Gas Meter Datasheet

The basic components of the CPT Quantometer are as follows: pressure resistant meter body inlet flow conditioner measuring cartridge with the turbine wheel magnetic coupling as the transferring element between measuring cartridge and the index index headDESIGN AND FUNCTIONCPT Quantometers have been designed in order to provide our customers with reliable and inexpensive measuring instruments for secondary flow measurements.Our great experience in de-signing and manufacturing of turbine and rotary gas meters resulted in the development of industrial quantometers. Taking into account our cus-tomers’ demands we created the instrument with excellent metrological characteristics and operating performance close to performances of the turbine gas meters designed for custody transfer measure-ments.Other advantages of the CPT Quantometers are as follows: high quality, easy maintenance, wide range of external devices that can co-operate with the quantometers, e.g. volume correctors, data loggers, data transmission systems.Due to that the CPT Quantometers are well accepted by our domestic and foreign customers. 1GasArgonButaneCarbon dioxideCarbon monoxideEthaneEthyleneHeliumMethaneNatural gasNitrogenPropaneAcetyleneHydrogenAirArC4H10CO2COC2H6C2H4HeCH4-N2C3H8C2H2H2-Chemical symbol(formula)1,662,531,841,161,271,170,170,67~0,751,161,871,090,0841,20Density ?[kg/m3]1,382,101,530,971,060,980,140,55~0,630,971,560,910,071,00Density related to airstandard IIBstandard IIBstandard IIBstandard IIBstandard IIBstandard IIBstandard IIBstandard IIBstandard IIBstandard IIBstandard IIBspecial IICspecial IICstandard IIBGas meterexecutiontable 1: Physical properties of most popular gases that may be measured with the CPT Quantometer; density at 101,325 kPa and at 20°C 406510016025016025040040065010005080100150pressure rating: PN16, PN20, ANSI150nominal diameter: DN50 up to DN150 standard range, other on requestmeter bodies: aluminium flow: 6 to 1600 m3/h other on requestrangeability: 1:20 minimum at atmospheric pressure Some smaller size meters have reduced ranges. temperature range: gas temperature -20°C to +60°C ambient temperature -25°C to +70°Callowed medias: see table 1operating position: horizontal or verticalGENERAL TECHNICAL DATAGDNmmMaximumflow Qmax [m3/h]Minimumflow Qmin [m3/h]LFpulse rate[m3/pulse]2346inch6510016025040025040065065010001600610813201320323250800,111110table 2:2ABCEFGHWeightM16 bolt No x Lmmmmmmmmmmmmmmkg1006518140651992523,64 x 180DN501208021150772112785,38 x 200DN8015010029165912253057,48 x 235DN 1001275019011624335111,68 x 270Note: No and lenght of bolts is for PN16 flanges only.fig.1 Basic dimensions of CPT Quantometer4343e to5°Ce C to5°C+6+6+6+6 °C70°C7043Ce to°C554269373209126esx x ges2 2 22222722353x6 x. 23 2eses 3535 88 23231513332995555°55e PULSE SENSORSThe CPT Quantometers may be provided with up to 7 pulse sensors:LFK – low frequency reed contact pulse sensor LFK 1, LFK 2LFI – low frequency inductive pulse sensor LFI 1, LFI 2HF – inductive pulse sensor in the index unit HF 1, HF 2HF – inductive pulse sensor over the turbine wheel HF 3AFK – anti-fraud reed contact AFKThe turbine wheel, as a standard, is made of aluminium. This allows to provide each CPT Quantometer with one HF3 inductive pulse sensor. There are no extra costs due to the replacement of the turbine wheel.fig. 3 Pulse sensor pin numbering in sockets 1 and 2 installed in the index.

Base conditions (NPTconditions: base temperature and base pressure) are country specific.The following formula is to be used when converting standard flow cubic meters per hour into actual flow at operating conditions:Qmax m = Qmax s • Z • •Tmax mTspspmin mDEFINITION:Qmin m = minimum fl ow at operating conditions [m3/h]Qmax m = maximum fl ow at operating conditions [m3/h]Qmin s = minimum flow at base conditions [Nm3/h] Qmax s = maximum flow at base conditions [Nm3/h] Qmin C = corrected minimum flow [m3/h] ps = base pressure (according to national standards) [bar a] Ts = base temperature (according to national standards) [K]?s = standard density of the gas [kg/m3], see table 1pm = gauge pressure at operating conditions [bar g]?m = density at operating conditions [kg/m3]?a = standard density of air 1,2 kg/m3pmax m = maximum operating pressure [bar a]pmin m = minimum operating pressure [bar a] Tmax m = maximum operating temperature [K]Tmin m = minimum operating temperature [K]Z = real gas factor at operating conditions (for PN16 Z ˜ 1)The quantometer size should be chosen (using actual flow at operating conditions) according to the following formula: Qmin (Qmin C) < Qmin m Qmax > Qmax m where Qmin and Qmax – minimum and maximum flow, according to table 2. The measurement range increases with increase of operating pressure. The correctedQmin C value decreases, and it may be calculated from the following formula: Qmin C = Qmin • v ?a / ?m where ?m = (pm +1) • ?sCOMMON S.A. has continuing program of product research and development. Technical specifications and con-struction may change due to improvements. This publication serves as general information only, and all specifica-tions are subject to confirmation by COMMON S.A.PRESSURE LOSSThe inevitable pressure loss during the gas flow through the meter is determined at the atmospheric conditions.To determine pressure losses at other, higher pressures, the following formula applies:DEFINITION:?p1 = pressure loss at p ?p = pressure loss from the diagram, fi g. 5pm = gauge pressure at operating conditions [bar g]?s = standard density of gas [kg/m3]?a = standard density of air 1,2 kg/m3ps = base pressure (1,01325 bar)INSTALLATION AND OPERATION RECOMMENDATIONSMeters should be shipped in their original package to the place of installation.The measured gas should be clean, dry and free from solid impurities. It is recommended that the upstream pipe installation is to be equipped with a filter (10 micron).Prior to installation the upstream and downstream pipe fl anges should be aligned properly.The gas fl ow should be in accordance with the arrow placed on the meter body.When used outdoors the meter should be protected against direct weather infl uence.When starting the gas flow through the installation, the valves should be opened slowly to ensure a gradual increase of pressure.fig. 5 Diagram of pressure loss related to ? = 1,2 kg/m3?p1 = ( ) • ( ) • ?p ??a?s?apm+psps65110100100010 100 1000Q [m3/h]?p[Pa]30002000DN50DN80DN100DN150 ALWAYS REMEMBER TO START UP THE METERS IN A PROPER WAY
