inspections should be conducted as and when
required.
Additional inspections maybe necessary for example
natural disasters, earthquakes, floods, landslides,
house fires etc.
When the meter is used in adverse environments or
with gases high in contaminants more frequent
inspections should be conducted.

For gases not listed please consult Landis + Gyr.

BIO-GAS

Biogas is generated
biological material in the absence of oxygen, in a
process known as anaerobic digestion. Biogas is
produced from marshes, rubbish dumps, septic tanks
and waste treatment plants. Biogas consists of large
quantities of carbon dioxide, hydrogen sulphide and
water. Therefore the service life will be dramatically
affected accordingly.

WARNING! PURE OXYGEN

All regulators and meters supplied by Landis + Gyr
are NOT SUITABLE for pressure regulating or
measuring PURE OXYGEN. Special meters and
regulators made from specific materials are required
to prevent heat build up as a result of friction etc.
SERVICE LIFE – INTERNAL CORROSION
Service life varies according to deleterious effects of
the specific gas, the level of filtration and any
contaminants in the gas stream. For example gases
containing water, sulphur, nitrous oxides and carbon
dioxide can accelerate corrosion to an unacceptable
level. Seemingly innocuous gases, under certain
