Gas Meter G4 436,000 BTU LP, Natural Gas 264,000 BTU landlord submeter tenants (FLOOR MODEL)

There is no other  gas meter  available in the american market that is as compact as this  Gas Meter.

This is a positive displacement  diaphragm type gas meter rated for 212  SCFH (Standard Cubic Feet per Hour)  of AIR

This  is equivalent  to 264  CFH of Natural Gas, capable  of measuring Natural Gas Burners and Appliances up to 264,000 BTU’s

Propane gas, capable  of measuring LPG Gas Burners and Appliances up to 436,000 BTU’s

Applications:  It is the same type of meter that a utility uses to bill residential and small commercial customers just smaller and compact.

It is  ideal for sub-metering space that is leased out,   doing energy monitoring on specific pieces of equipment or for lab usage to monitor totalized flow of a process.

Gas is measured in cubic FEET  with a 4 digit black odometer index for cubic feet and a 1 digit red odometer index for fractions of cubic feet

Accuracy

The   Gas Meter odometer index can be read to 1 liter accuracy  (equivalent to 61 cubic inches).

This means it can measure the gas usage of a pilot light on a furnace or water heater.

Odometer index is much clearer  to read than the old fashioned dial type .

It is customarily used on natural gas, propane or air, but can also be used on other dry gases such as dry CO2, Nitrogen or Propane/Air.  It can measure all types of gases,

NATURAL GAS:     264 CFH of Natural Gas, capable  of measuring Natural Gas Burners and Appliances up to 264,000 BTU’s

LPG or PROPANE  GAS:   436 CFH of LPG or Propane gas, capable  of measuring LPG Gas Burners and Appliances up to 436,000 BTU’s

It can be installed  in   gas lines  up to  7,2 PSI   of pressure.

A typical Natural gas Line is 7″ WC.

A typical LPG  gas Line is 11″ WC.

MORE TECH  TRIVIA

The average heat value of natural gas is 1000 BTU per cubic foot. A BTU (British Thermal Unit) is enough heat to heat one pound of water one degree (F). Natural gas is sold to the customer in units of 100 cubic feet (therm) or in a unit called MCF.

A  therm represents approx. 100,000 BTU of heating power, enough to heat a normal home for about 2hours during colder weather. MCF is ten therms, or 1 million BTU’s.

Natural Gas is delivered to the customer at a very low pressure, usually less than 1/2 PSI. The pressure is expressed in Water Column (WC), where 28″ WC = 1 PSI.  

 It is customarily used on natural gas, propane or air, but can also be used on other dry gases such as Dry CO2, Nitrogen or Propane/Air.   It can measure all types of gases ,  

Flow Direction:

Features:   The shell is with aluminum alloy with advanced powder coating surface treatment which makes it possible to install outdoors or indoors.

This amazingly compact  gas meter designed for residential or lab use and it can be connected to the existing gas network via 3/4″ NPT ports .  It is so sensitive it can measure  the gas consumed by a lighted pilot.
