Description
This is based on the temperature and pressure rating of the ANSI
B16.5 flanges.
Ensure that piping or other attachments connected to the
turbine meter are not under stress. The design of the turbine
meter has not been assessed for the effects of wind, earthquake
loading and/or other severe weather conditions.
Select the material compatible with specific processes and
atmospheric environments. Implement a periodic inspection
and maintenance program to ensure that pressure-retaining
components are free from corrosion and erosion.
