Rotary Gas Meter

American Meter’s Rotary Gas Meters provide accurate flow measurement and outstanding performance in the most adverse conditions. In addition to natural gas Rotary Gas Meters are suitable for propane and butane based gases, as well as other inert industrial gases. Advantages include:

Accurate - Precision engineered to measure natural gas flow accurately at all standard line conditions.

Tough – Rugged extruded aluminum manufacturing makes the meters well suited for adverse line conditions. These meters work in rough service where pipe stress and snap acting loads are evident.

Versatile - Options can be added to the meters to meet a variety of applications requirements. Optional equipment includes: temperature compensator with electronic data storage, correcting instruments, and automated meter reading, plus high and low frequency pulsing instruments.

Rotary Gas Operating Principle

"As down stream demand initiates the flow of gas, a pressure drop develops between the meter's inlet and outlet. This creates an internal force on a pair of hourglass shaped impellers that begin to rotate allowing the flow of gas to start. As the impellers rotate, gas alternately flows into two fixed-volume chambers created between the impellers and the internal cavity of the meter's housing. While cycling, these chambers measure a fixed-volume of gas and then discharge that gas down stream filling the demand.

These impellers rotate by way of highly synchronized precision gears and will cycle four times during each revolution of the impeller shaft. During operation, there is no metal-to-metal contact between the meter's housing and impellers."
