2. Flowmeter accuracy level
Within the range of the flow meter, its accuracy level and maximum indication error:
Level 1.0: ±1.0% (Qt ≤Q≤Qmax), ±2.0% (Qmin ≤Q<Qt);
Qt is the boundary flow value. When the range is <50:1, Qt=10%Qmax;
When the range degree ≥ 50:1, Qt=5%Qmax.
3. Environmental conditions
- Ambient temperature: -30℃~+60℃, when equipped with a volume corrector, it is determined by the corrector;
- Relative humidity: 5% ~ 95%;
- Atmospheric pressure: 70kPa ~ 106kPa.
- 4 Media conditions
- Medium temperature: -20℃~+80℃;
- Measured media: natural gas, city gas and other gases, alkanes and industrial inert gases.
Note: It is strictly prohibited to directly measure explosive gases such as acetylene, oxygen or hydrogen and highly corrosive gases!
When equipped with automatic pressure detection function, in order to ensure the accuracy of pressure detection of the flow meter, the upper limit pressure of the pressure sensor should be correctly selected according to the maximum working pressure of the medium.
Pressure sensor upper limit pressure (MPa, absolute pressure) | 0.2 | 0.5 | 1.0 | 2.0 |
Medium pressure range (MPa, absolute pressure) | 0.08~0.2 | 0.1~0.5 | 0.2~10 | 0.4 ~2.0 |

Roots Gas Meter working principle
Two figure-eight rotors rotating in opposite directions are placed in a solid metering chamber. Precision-machined adjustment gears keep the rotors in the correct relative position.
Maintain an optimal working gap between the rotors, the rotor and the housing, and the gland. This gap provides continuous non-contact sealing.
In Figure 1, the 4 different positions of the figure-8-shaped rotor that rotates up and down in opposite directions (position 1 → position 4) are used to illustrate the metering principle:
- Position 1: When the lower rotor turns to the horizontal position in the counterclockwise direction, the gas enters the space between the housing and the rotor;
- Position 2: The lower rotor rotates to the horizontal position, and there is a fixed volume of gas in the bottom chamber of the metering chamber;
- Position 3: When the upper and lower rotors continue to rotate, the gas in the bottom of the metering chamber is exhausted;
- Position 4: Same as the above process, the upper rotor rotates clockwise to the horizontal position, and the upper part of the metering chamber contains the same volume of gas as the bottom of the metering chamber. Each pair of rotors rotates once and discharges an equal volume of gas 4 times.
When the gas to be measured enters the inlet end of the flow meter, the rotor is pushed to rotate, and a constant volume of flow is discharged from the outlet every time it rotates. This is the working principle of rotating fixed displacement. The rotation of the rotor is transmitted to the mechanical counter (or output flow pulse signal) through the magnetic coupler, thereby accumulating the volume flowing through the measurement chamber to achieve the purpose of measurement.
