Adjusta-Cone
Adjustable Cone Gas Flow Meter
Adjusta-Cone® is a unique natural gas flow meter, it is an adjustable differential pressure cone meter and a safe alternative to dual chamber orifice meters, which always release gas during every orifice plate change operation.
Dual chamber fittings are commonly used for well testing applications. They are hazardous to use, have limited operational envelopes and are prone to damage and leaks. They are expensive to maintain and are usually installed in a very tight space, in such a manner that their accuracy is compromised. Adjusta-Cone addresses all these disadvantages in a fully automatic, wide ranging and, most of all, completely safe device which needs no personnel intervention.
Specification Title | Specification Description |
---|---|
Accuracy
|
+/- 0.5% accuracy.
|
Automation
|
Adjusta-Cone® automatically selects and shifts to the best flow range in a fraction of the time, so that it is always operating within its most accurate envelope. In doing so, it completely removes the need for personnel intervention.
|
Environment
|
It uses differential pressure technology, which has been shown (ISO 5167 part V) to require less upstream straight lengths than orifice plates, so its footprint is up to 60% less than an equivalent orifice run.
|
Range
|
Adjusta-Cone® has a 25:1 turndown ratio compared to an orifice plate’s 3:1 or 4:1. (250:1 when used across its entire operating pressure range).
|
Reporting
|
Each Adjusta-Cone® is fitted with a state of the art flow computer, programmed with built in tables of calibration data, as well as meter’s physical dimensions.
|
Safety
|
It does not release hazardous natural gas nor toxic H2S gas every time it is used, so is a safe alternative to a dual chamber orifice fitting.
