General features of the turbine meter
The Daniel Series 1500 Liquid Turbine Meter (LTM) is a volumetric flow metering and
transmitting device used for accurate measurement of hydrocarbons and other related
process fluids. The design allows high operational flow rates, extended flow ranges and
sustained performance capability.
The turbine meter is designed for use within the guidelines of API Manual of Petroleum
Measurement Standards (MPMS), Chapter 5.3 and test procedures of API MPMS, Chapter 4
(Prover systems).
The meter consists of two main parts: Local Mounted Enclosure (LME) assembly and the
meter body housing assembly. For certain functions, the meter will have a Remote
Mounted Enclosure (RME), another version of the LME.
The LME is an explosion-proof, weather-resistant housing for dual pickoffs, as well as an
encapsulated preamplifier. It also serves as the mechanical mounting connection
necessary for local and remote accessories.
Note
Daniel offers electronic enclosures with different housing materials and electronic
configurations.
Local Mounted Enclosure (LME)
The LME consists of an electrical enclosure and a solid cover made of stainless steel. This
configuration contains a mounting bracket and a preamplifier which works with two
standard pickoff coils mounted into the meter housing.
The electrical enclosure contains an external and an internal grounding lug. The two
enclosure openings are plugged with stainless steel plugs. Refer to
