Operating conditions and specifications

Flow straightening devices
For accurate operation of the turbine meter, a flow conditioning plate, flow straightener
(designed for the turbine meter), or a straight run of pipe (20 pipe diameters long) is
required. All piping must be the same diameter as the turbine meter. Flow straightening
devices must be installed directly upstream of the turbine meter and should not contain
flow restricting devices which could cause reversal of the flow straightening effect.
Strainers
Install the correct size strainer upstream of the turbine meter to protect it from foreign
material damage. Recommended mesh sizes include: 80 mesh for refined products, and
20 to 40 mesh for crude products (depending on the product being measured).
Clean the strainer basket regularly, to prevent filling and rupturing of the screen.
Pressure gauges installed on both sides of the strainer monitor differential pressure across
the strainer. High pressure differential caused by filling of the basket or occlusion of
foreign material can cause a strainer basket rupture, resulting in possible turbine meter
damage.
