System Recommendations

Meter Selection
The flow meter must be carefully chosen from the Meter Selection factors in the Engineering Manual.
The meter must be selected based on the operating system and product characteristics. System variables
include flow rate, temperature and pressure. Product characteristics include the material compatibility,
lubricity, viscosity, presence of suspensions, pH, and whether the product can congeal, crystallize or leave
a dry film. Failure to select the correct flow meter may result in system failure or serious injury.
Air Elimination
In any system where the supply tank may be completely drained or multiple products manifold into one
metering system, the possibility of air being introduced into the fluid piping increases. The solution is to
utilize an air or vapor eliminator in the system, located upstream of the flow meter. The purpose of this
device is to vent the air or vapor from the system before it can be measured by the meter. Air or vapor
elimination is required for all weights and measures regulatory approvals in custody transfer applications.
