The constant rise in energy prices is forcing consumers of natural gas for domestic purposes to think about the proper accounting of "blue" fuel. Despite the changes made by the government to Federal Law No. 261, which postpone the mandatory installation of a gas meter for an indefinite period, it is better to worry in advance about purchasing an appropriate measuring device. At the moment, there are several manufacturers on the market whose products meet the technical requirements of gas organizations. The page http://schetchik-bk.ru/ presents the most reliable models of gas flow meters that have proven themselves in the process of operation. p>
Gas meter selection
The following factors should be taken into account when selecting a gas metering device:
- Estimated volume of natural gas consumption.
- Location of the device (indoor or outdoor).
- Gas flow direction.
- Dimensions.
- Price.
When choosing a gas meter for a private household, you should pay attention to models with a built-in temperature correction system. These devices can be installed both indoors and outdoors. When using these gas meters, there is no need to apply correction factors when paying for utilities. Under any ambient temperature conditions, the meter readings will correspond exactly to the consumed volume. The marking of these models contains the letter "T", for example, SGD-3T G6 manufactured by JSC "BelOMO".
The estimated consumption also influences the choice of a particular model. For example, for housing, which has only a gas stove, an apparatus with a throughput of 1.6 cubic meters per hour is perfect. If the owners also have an instantaneous gas water heater, then you should pay attention to the option of 2.5 cubic meters /h. For a cottage in which gas is used for heating needs, you will need a meter with a throughput of 4 cubic meters per hour and above.
It is also worth considering that electronic metering devices are quieter than mechanical gas meters.
