Brief Information
Honeywell Elster Quantometers are highly reliable turbine gas meters designed for industrial non-fiscal applications. They accurately measure actual flow rates and consumption over time, meeting stringent industrial requirements. For fiscal applications, Honeywell offers approved solutions such as the TRZ2 turbine meter and RABO rotary gas meter.
Operating Principle
Gas flow drives a turbine wheel, with revolutions proportional to the volume passing through. The totalizer (mechanical QA or electronic QAe) registers this volume. Self-lubricating bearings ensure maintenance-free operation, while proven design, materials, and assembly processes guarantee durability and accuracy.
Why Metering Matters
Energy efficiency is critical for modern industries. Quantometers monitor consumption in boilers, heaters, furnaces, and other major energy users, enabling precise control of production and heating processes. This data improves overall efficiency and facilitates internal cost allocation between cost centers.
Installation Requirements
- Upstream Piping: 3DN straight section for accuracy
- Downstream Piping: 2DN outlet in the same nominal size as the meter
- Filter: Required upstream if particles (e.g., rust) are present in the gas flow
- Orientation: Can be installed horizontally or vertically (flow direction specified during ordering)
