Dresser* Turbine Meters Above all - accuracy and reliability

GE Oil & Gas’ innovative Dresser Turbine Meter helps reduce installation and maintenance costs while improving measurement accuracy Built with Operation in Mind Design Features Designed to measure gas velocity, the operating principle of the turbine meter incorporates an innovative method of conditioning flow in the meter body. A straightening section in the meter body conditions the gas flow by removing undesired swirl, and turbulence before it reaches the turbine rotor. The dynamic forces from gas flow initiate rotation of the turbine rotor. The precision machined rotor, mounted on an...

This feature offers modular flexibility in terms of minimum and maximum capacity. In accordance with European Standard EN 12261, 6.4 Removable meter mechanism, 6.4.1 Integrity, 6.4.1.1 Requirements that states “the design and integrity of a meter with removable mechanism or cartridge shall not be affected by the removal or replacement of the measuring element or cartridge. A meter will be deemed to meet this requirement if it remains leak tight, as defined in 6.2.3, when subjected to the test given in 6.4.2”. For example, the 6” turbine meter body may be ordered with a Qmax of 650 m3/h,...

Effective removal of dirt and dust along with oil refreshment enhances turbine meter accuracy. This is important in applications where gas quality is inferior. Some gas networks have locations where flowing gas includes increased levels of dirt, entrapped liquids and other foreign materials. For applications with inferior gas quality, conventional oil injection systems only add oil to bearings and other critical gears. Flushing dirty oil can significantly improve bearing and gear performance. The Dresser Turbine Meters incorporate an inventive oil refreshing and flushing lubrication system....

Turbine Meter Advantages ■ Precision machined rotor, superior component parts, and robust body design provides long-term accuracy and reliability. Replaceable Measurement Cartridge (RMC) allows customers to design small metering stations when planning for future meter capacity increases. Low cost associated with government accuracy test directives by replacing the existing measurement cartridge with a new pre-calibrated cartridge. Reduce the need to replace the entire meter by replacing a measurement cartridge when it is necessary to perform important repair work. Multi-stage flow...

Calibration Dresser Turbine Meters and removable cartridge assemblies are each supplied with a calibration certificate. The initial verification and calibration are carried out at the factory on an NMi and/or PTB approved calibration bench. All Dresser Turbine Meters are designed for outdoor installation. The index is IP65/IP55 approved. Gas pipes must be clean and free from foreign impurities such as sand, dirt, welding debris and other particles, as well as liquid. Where dirty gas exists, it is recommended to fit the meter with an automatic lubrication system and or a purge system. Note:...
