    NX-19 or AGA8 or SGERG88 formula (see Correction Equation for details). Romet combines the power of its field proven gas measurement technology and integration of computer-based software to come with the product AdEM®-PTZ.
  • Page 5: How To Specify Model

    The AdEM®-PTZ is a solid-state electronic volume conversion module that is directly coupled to the magnetic housing of the Romet meter body. The AdEM®-PTZ employs a magnetic sensing device to sense the rotation of the meter’s outer magnet which produces a high-resolution input that represents the non-converted (UNC - uncorrected) metered gas volume.
  • Page 6: Rometlink Software

    In addition to compensating for live pressure and temperature conditions, the AdEM®-PTZ has a low flow volumetric linearization feature that enhances the rangeability of the Romet meter to 200:1 or better with an error of less than 1.0%. This feature, if activated, is automatically initiated at flow rates below 10% of the Qmax rating for the meter.

  • Page 9: Adem®-Ptz Typical Application

    AdEM®-PTZ can be used in a variety of ways. It can be used as a stand-alone device which can be configured or evaluated by portable keyboard. For ease of operation and advance functions, it is recommended to use Romet RometLink communication software either through using direct cable connection to the computer (RS232 or RS485), or remotely by using a Hayes compatible modem connection (including wireless modem).
  • Page 10: Getting Started

    AdEM®-PTZ is usually supplied fully calibrated/preprogrammed and mounted to pressure body as per specifications of each customer. The AdEM®-PTZ modules can be supplied for Romet pressure bodies as well as other manufacturers’ pressure bodies. The module, when removed from the box, will be in Normal Display mode only.

  • Page 21: Set Up

    The AdEM®-PTZ module would normally be shipped from Romet with the Setup configuration fully programmed to a customer's specifications. The exception would be an order for a loose AdEM®-PTZ module where the customer may not have specified the meter type. In such an instance, the meter type and some of the associated parameters would need to be programmed by the customer during the installation of the AdEM®-PTZ module to the meter body.

    If calibration is aborted due to any reason, the unit will revert to old saved data that is still valid. Calibration by Keypad The flowchart below shows how to calibrate Gas Temperature sensor. Gas temperature Calibration by Keyboard - Flowchart ROMET LTD.
  • Page 33 Calibration and Setup Modes. Calibration by software Temperature calibration by RometLink software is fully available under Calibrate Unit/1-Point Gas Temperature. See Fig.14 for 1-Point Temperature Calibrate windows. Refer to RometLink Help for further calibration details. Fig.14 Software 1-Point Temperature Calibrate Window ROMET LTD.
  • Page 34: Ambient Temperature Calibration

    In order to perform calibration, the Program Switch on the Main Board must be moved to the “Enable” position (refer to section 4, SECURITY). Connect the pressure supply to the unit. Check for any leakage. If confirmed OK, set the pressure controller to the LOW pressure point (approximately 20% of the range). ROMET LTD.
  • Page 35 Point Gas Pressure…. Once Calibration window is open (see Fig. 16, 3-Point Gas Pressure Calibrate window), after stabilizing of A/D counts enter True Pressure (value displayed by the pressure controller) for LOW pressure point, then select Low Point from Capture As: selection. Repeat sequence for MIDDLE and HIGH pressure points. ROMET LTD.
  • Page 36 Selection of pressure Calibration points Usually pressure points are established as: 20% (Low Point), 60% (Middle Point), 100% (High Point), of full pressure range. However, points can be chosen differently if needed (e.g. for very low-pressure ranges of AdEM®-PTZ) ROMET LTD.
  • Page 37 Presently Absolute option is approved for Canada.  Once 1-point pressure calibration is used, future 3-point calibration must be performed by Software to automatically cancel 1-point calibration. Cancelation is necessary for correct performance of 3-points calibration by Keypad. ROMET LTD.

    AdEM®-PTZ (5 ms pulse width). Model 5 Prover A Romet cable assembly (Romet P/N 34-097-40) is required to connect the unconverted (UNC VOL) pulse output (6 pin Cannon) of the AdEM®-PTZ to the Model 5 Prover. Other cable assemblies are available to accommodate different pin arrangements and other connector types.
