Gas meter

Q: How does a gas meter for precise volume measurement work?

Gas meters measure the volume flow of gases precisely and reliably. Different measuring methods are used depending on the application. A mechanical gas meter design uses moving parts such as rotary pistons or turbine wheels that are driven by the gas flow. Their rotations are counted and converted into the measured volume. A modern ultrasonic meter works without mechanical components. It sends ultrasonic pulses through the gas and measures the differences in transit time. This allows the flow velocity to be determined in order to accurately calculate the gas volume. RMG is a supplier of high-quality gas measurement devices that are optimized for industrial processes.

Gas meter for volume measurement

Gas meters are made for precise volume flow measurement in industry and trade. They record gas consumption for billing purposes or in processes where the precise determination of gas flows is crucial. Measurement is complex, as gases expand or contract depending on pressure and temperature.

Modern RMG gas meters record the operating volume precisely. Volume conversion makes it possible to calculate the actual standard volume. This technology is particularly important for gas billing or the control of industrial processes. Turbine gas meters, ultrasonic gas meters and gas volume meters are the optimum choice depending on the application.

In the domestic sector, diaphragm gas meters dominate, while commercial enterprises often use rotary gas meters. Calibratable systems are available for high-precision applications. A test bench for gas meters ensures the accuracy of the measuring devices.
