I. DESIGN AND APPLICATION CONDITIONS
Design
CPT-01 Turbine Quantometers are instruments used for measurement of gas volume
that flows through an installation. Standard execution allows to be installed where explosion
hazard zones may occur (air and gas mixtures - class IIA and class IIB; with special execution
– also class IIC). The CPT-01 Quantometers may be used for measurement of gases indicated
in Table 1. Using the CPT-01 Quantometers for measurement of other gases has to be agreed
with the manufacturer. Maximum operating pressure for the CPT-01 Quantometers is 2 MPa
The quantometers are installed between the existing flanges.
It is recommended to install the gas meters in compartments with stable temperature, but they
are also suitable for outdoor installations. When installed outdoors they should be protected
against direct influence of atmospheric conditions (in steel containers, cabinets, under roofs,
shields, etc.). The meters may be used at ambient temperature range from -25°C up to + 70°C;
gas temperature range is from -20°C up to + 60°C.

II. CONSTRUCTION AND OPERATION
The turbine quantometer operation is based on the proportionality of the rotational
speed of the turbine wheel to the linear velocity thus to the flowing gas volume. Gas entering
the gas meter (Fig. 2) is directed through the inlet flow straightener into the measurement as-
sembly and causes the rotation of the turbine wheel. The wheel rotations are transmitted by
means of gears and magnetic coupling into the index assembly. The index sums up the volume
that has flown through the meter, and it is shown on the 8-digit counter. Proper performance
of each CPT-01 Quantometer is maintained only in the range of Qmin and Qmax, as determined
in Table 2.
.

Fig.2. Cross section of the CPT-01 Quantometer

The CPT-01 Quantometer (Fig. 2) consists of four main assemblies:
1. Main body assembly. The main body assembly consists of the main body made of extruded
aluminium profile, inlet straightener and plugs for taps. The main body is equipped with the
pressure measurement tap and the tap for installation of the HF inductive transmitter. The inlet
straightener, placed upstream the turbine wheel, distributes evenly the gas flow and directs it
onto the turbine wheel vanes.
2. Measurement assembly. It consists of the turbine wheel, the turbine wheel housing, the
measurement assembly housing, shafts and gears. The turbine wheel is placed in the axis of the
quantometer body and is provided with high precision bearings. The transmission gear (worm
gear and cylindrical gear) decreases the rotational velocity and transfers it to the magnetic cou-
pling..

5
3. Drive transmission assembly. It is installed in the quantometer body. It consists of the
mount with the hermetic, gas tight partition and the magnetic coupling. The driving part of the
magnetic coupling is placed inside the quantometer and is connected with the turbine assembly
by means of an articulated shaft. The driven part of the magnetic coupling is placed outside the
partition and is connected with the index.
4. Index assembly. Consecutive reduction of the rotational speed is performed there (through
the worm gear and cylindrical gear) in order to drive the mechanical totalizer, and inductors of
low frequency pulse transmitters. The assembly contains also sockets for electric LF and HF
output signals.

III. INDEX AND MEASUREMENT OUTPUTS

The reading assemblies of the CPT-01 Quantometer consist of a mechanical index with
incorporated electric signal outputs, a pressure tap and a tap for installation of an external HF
pulse transmitter (from the turbine wheel). These outputs enable the control of the instrument
operation and connections of external devices. Location of measurement outputs on the quan-
tometer is shown in the Fig. 3.

Fig.3. Location of the measurement outputs on the CPT-01 Quantometer

Mechanical index is located inside the index unit and is visible through the polycarbonate
sight glass. It enables direct reading of the gas volume flowing through the meter at operating
conditions, i.e. at actual pressure and temperature. The index unit may be rotated by 345o
against its axis what enables reading of the index from any direction.
Electrical outputs from the index. There are two types of electric signal outputs: LF - low
frequency and HF - high frequency. The index may be equipped with maximum two sockets
and six pulse transmitters:
- two proximity inductive high frequency pulse transmitters HF,
- two gap inductive low frequency transmitters LFI,
- two reed contact low frequency transmitters LFK.

6
 The LFK reed contact transmitters are designed for the cooperation with the battery
volume corrector that is located in the vicinity of the gas meter (up to 2 m). The inductive
transmitters, LFI and HF, may send electric signals for bigger distances (up to 200 m, depend-
ing on conditions). Because of higher current consumption they may cooperate only with
power supplied volume correctors. Gas volume that corresponds to one pulse of the LF trans-
mitter is given in Table 2.

Number of HF pulses for one m3 of gas is determined individually for each gas meter, and is
indicated in the name plate.

A dash placed in the name plate instead of number of pulses, or lack of description,
indicates that an appropriate pulse transmitter has not been installed.

All pulse transmitters installed in the index head are connected to contacts of „Tuchel”
C091 31N006 100 2 sockets. The sockets are located on the rear side of the index head. These
sockets are to be used for connection of 6-pin plugs “Tuchel” C091 31H006 100 2. The “Tu-
chel” connection applied in the CPT-01 Quantometers are IP67. Possible connections of
transmitters with appropriate electric signal sockets are given in Table 3.

The CPT-01 Quantometer in standard execution is equipped with one reed contact
transmitter LFK1.

According to the application conditions the CPT-01 Quantometers should be provided with
transmitters of at least II 2G EEx ib IIC T4 protection level. These conditions are met
when the following pulse transmitters are used:
- HF type NJ0,8-5GM-N, manufactured by Pepperl+Fuchs GmbH

PN EN 60947-5-6:2002) the input voltage values may be as follows:
- non active state UL < 1,2 V,
- active state UH > 2,1 V.
Electrical outputs from HF transmitter installed in the CPT-01 Quantometer body
The high frequency transmitter may be installed in the quantometer body, over the turbine
wheel. The turbine wheel is the modulating element of the HF transmitter magnetic field.

The pulse transmitter is installed in the tap shown in Fig.3. The tap is provided with M16 x 1,5
thread.

INSTALLATION OF THE HF TRANSMITER IN THE GAS METER BODY REQUIRES HIGH ACCU-
RACY. ALSO SPECIAL ELECTRONIC CONTROL DEVICES SHOULD BE USED.

THEREFORE IT MAY ONLY BE PERFORMED BY THE MANUFACTURER OR BY THE AUTHOR-

ISED REPRESENTATIVE.

The protection type of the transmitters should be at least II 2G EEx ib IIC T5. These con-
ditions are met by the following transmitters:
- HF type CHFI-02, manufactured by Common S.A. II 2G EEx ia IIC T6
- HF type NJ1,5-10GM-N-Y07451, manufactured by Pepperl+Fuchs GmbH,
II 1G EEx ia IIC T6

Permissible supply parameters of the above mentioned transmitters from intrinsically safe cir-
cuits, maximum inductance and internal capacitance of the transmitters are as follows:
- CHFI-02 Ui = 15,5 V, Ii = 52 mA, Pi = 169 mW, Li ≈ 40 μH, Ci = 28 nF.
- NJ1,5-10GM-N-Y07451 Ui = 16 V, Ii = 25 mA, Pi = 64 mW, Li = 50 μH, Ci = 20 nF.
.
The application conditions and supply parameters are marked on the transmitter housing.
The transmitters are equipped with 4-pin plugs „Tuchel” C091 31W004 100 2. The connecting
cables should be provided with sockets „Tuchel” C091 31D004 100 2. The transmitter is con-
nected to pins „3” and „4” of the plug. The sketch of the transmitter connection with the
measurement circuit is show in Fig. 5.

Fig.5. HF pulse transmitter connection sketch

The number of HF pulses per one m3 of gas is determined individually for each gas meter and
is indicated in the nameplate (Fig. 8) located on top of the index head..

A dash placed in the name plate instead of number of pulses, or lack of description, indi-
cates that an appropriate pulse transmitter has not been installed

Pressure measurement outputs.
Pressure measurement output (pressure pulse tap) is located on the side of the main body (Fig.
3). The tap may be provided either with M12x1,5 thread (Fig. 6) or NPT 1/4 thread (Fig. 7).
The thread type is marked on the body. The pressure tap is used for connecting the pressure
transmitters directly, or indirectly by means of a three-way valve.

IV. MARKING AND CALIBRATION OF THE QUANTOMETERS
Basic specification of the gas meter, serial number and production year is shown in the
nameplates (Fig. 8 and Fig. 9). The plates are fixed to the index housing by means of screws.
Two first digits of the serial number indicate the gas meter size code, according to Table 2.
Information marks showing the flow direction, as well as pressure taps, are placed on the main
body (Fig. 10).

Each quantometer is calibrated in the manufacturer’s laboratory or other recognized labora-
tory. The calibration certificate is delivered with the quantometer. Connections that are not
being dismantled during the quantometer installation are protected with factory seals or with a
recognized laboratory seals (Nos 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8 and 9, Fig. 11).

Fig.11. Location of seals on the CPT-01 quantometers

Protective seals installed on the pressure sensor tapping (No 5) and on the HF transmitter (No
7) are marked by the manufacturer, by the gas distributing company or by the authorized in-
staller. Additionally the protective seals should be installed on unused electric signal output
caps, and, if necessary, on the provided three way valve.
If the seals are damaged the guarantee may become invalid.

12
V. PACKAGING, TRANSPORTATION AND STORAGE

The gas meter is delivered in a factory packaging which secures the instrument during
transportation and storage. The packaging consists of reinforced cardboard box with shaped
styrofoam inserts. Appropriate information on the package content, as well as limitations on
loading / unloading, is placed on the package.. The boxes are provided with special openings in
order to facilitate handling of the quantometers. Quantometers returned for repairs or recali-
bration, should be delivered to the factory in their original packaging or other that provide at
least the same protection during transportation as the original ones.
Each quantometer manufactured by COMMON S.A. is provided with the following accesso-
ries:
- 6-pin plug “Tuchel” C091 31H006 100 2 that may be used for connecting a volume
corrector or a data logger low frequency electric output (if the volume corrector or
data logger is not delivered as a set with the quantometer);
- 4-pin socket “Tuchel” C091 31D004 100 2, if the gas meter is equipped with HF
transmitter installed in the body;
- Operating instruction
THE TURBINE QUANTOMETER IS A PRECISE MEASURING INSTRUMENT AND SHOULD BE HAN-
DLED WITH UTMOST CARE..

Following recommendations should be observed during transportation and storage:

1. The quantometers during transportation should be protected against falls, shocks, or strong
vibrations (e.g. due to handling on improper trolleys)
2. Lifting the quantometers by means of the index housing is not allowed..
3. Factory installed covers or seals on the gas meters openings should be removed just before
the meter installation..
4. The quantometers during storing should be protected against direct atmospheric influence,
and against humidity.
5. Take care not to damage the protective seals installed on the quantometer.

VI. INSTALLATION AND START-UP

Prior to the installation of the quantometer check whether it has been selected properly,
in accordance with the operating parameters of the system. In particular, attention should be
paid to the following information contained in the nameplate:
• maximum operating pressure [MPa], marked pmax ,
3
• maximum real flow [m /h], marked Qmax .
• .

It is permitted to operate the quantometer with flow bigger by 25% than the designed
maximum flow within maximum 30 minutes.

The quantometers should not be installed in the lowest position of the installation as it is possi-
ble that condensate and other impurities may collect there.

13
The quantometers should be installed in closed compartments or under appropriate shields. It
is not permitted to expose the gas meters to rain or snow falls, or to pollution with other sub-
stances (e.g. dust).

The quantometer should be installed in piping of the appropriate nominal diameter. Proper
alignment of the meter and pipe flanges should be secured. It is recommended to install appro-
priate upstream and downstream pipe sections. The quantometers are to be installed between
flanges PN16 or PN20 (ANSI 150).
When designing the installation follow the dimensions given in Table 3, and Fig. 12.

Impurities contained in gas and in the piping may cause damages to the measuring assembly
and decrease the measurement accuracy. Therefore it is recommended to install the 10 µm
filter upstream the quantometer (especially in case of heavy polluted gases). Besides, prior to
the installation, it is recommended to clean the upstream piping, and to provide a Top Hat Fil-
ter (cone sieve) before the meter. The cone sieve may be removed after 1 – 2 months of opera-
tion. If the cone sieve is not removed than it is necessary to maintain it regularly and control
the pressure drop. If the cone sieve is clogged it may get damaged by the gas pressure, and the
debris may seriously damage the quantometer .

THE MANUFACTURER IS NOT LIABLE FOR ANY DMAGES TO THE QUANTOMETER DUE
TO IMPROPER FILTRATION OF THE FLOWING GAS

The user of the gas meter should pay special attention to some risk related to gas flow
changes. If for a longer time, after commissioning, the flow in the piping was relatively low the
impurities (e.g. weld spatters) remain upstream the gas meter. When the flow increases the
flowing gas may sweep away these impurities and in consequence the gas meter may get dam-
aged. Due to that the cone sieves are very practical solution when the new installation is reach-
ing its designed output. Nevertheless, the user should protect the gas meter against mechanical
damages.
Prior to the installation of the gas meter it is necessary to check whether it is oriented properly,
i.e. whether the arrow located on the body indicates the proper flow direction.
The quantometers are to be fixed in the piping by means of stud bolts, according to the follow-
ing standards: PN-EN ISO 898-1:2001, PN-EN ISO 3506-1:2000, PN-ISO 888:1996. For
standard flanges flat gaskets may be used (acc. to PN-EN 1514-1:2001 or PN-EN 12560-
1:2002)

Unused electric output sockets must be closed with factory supplied caps and
seals in order to protect them against corrosion and pollution.

START-UP
In order to start up the quantometer properly the following recommendations should be ob-
served (typical installation with the by-pass, Fig.13):
1. The quantometer is installed with the valves 1, 2, 5 closed, and the by-pass valve 4 open.
The vent valve 3 remains open after venting the installation.
2. Having tightened the bolts remove the air from the installation by opening the valve 5. This
must be done in accordance with appropriate local regulations. The valve 3 remains open.
3. Having removed the air from the installation close valve 3 and pressurize the installation.
Observe that the pressure increase is no greater than 30 ± 10 kPa/s.
4. When the index does not indicate any flow (it means that the pressure is equal in the instal-
lation), close the valve 5.
5. First, open the valve 1 and next the valve 2.
6. Having fully opened the valve 2, the by-pass valve 4 is to be closed.

15
 5

Fig. 13. Diagram of the measuring system with the by-pass valve When removing the gas me-
ter from the installation, proceed opposite, i.e.:
1. First, open the by-pass valve 4,
2. Consecutively, close the valve 2, and next the valve 1
3. Release the pressure from the measurement installation by means of the vent valve 3; pres-
sure decrease should be not more than 30 ± 10 kPa/s.

In other cases the procedure should be similar, i.e. open and close the gas flow through the gas
meter very slowly. Sudden increase of flow caused by abrupt opening of valves may bring
about damages to the measurement turbine due to large pressure difference upstream and
downstream the meter.
If during the usage of the gas meter ovechargings may occur (i.e. Qmax may be overcome by
more than 25 %), then it is recommended to install orifices. The orifice should be installed
downstream the gas meter at the distance of 5 to 10 nominal pipe diameters. The orifice plate
size is determined individually, depending on the nominal pipe diameter, flow, pressure and
temperature of the gas. On customer’s demand COMMON S.A. may provide appropriate ori-
fices.
After installation of the quantometer check whether indications of the index are proper. Each
drum of the index should rotate freely, and after one full turn it should move the next left drum
by 1/10th of its rotation.

16
VII. MAINTENANCE, FAULTS, REPAIRS
The CPT-01 Quantometers need no maintenance. The bearings used in the construction are
self lubricating, therefore the only maintenance activity is cleaning the meters from dust and
other impurities, especially from the index sight glass. Use a cloth soaked with water and soap
solution. It is not allowed to use thinners or other chemical agents.

If during operation of the gas meter any abnormality occur (e.g. uneven run, stoppage of index,
higher noise level, rattling) the quantometer should be removed from the installation and sent
for repair.

REPAIRS OF THE QUANTOMETERS MAY BE PERFORMED ONLY BY

THE MANUFACTURER OR BY AUTHORISED PERSONNEL.
IS NOT ALLOWED TO PERFORM REPAIRS BY THE USER!

After repairs when calibrations leaden seals were removed it is necessary to recalibrate the
quantometer.

VIII. AUXILIARY EQUIPMENT

In order to convert gas volume from operating into base conditions it is often required (or rec-
ommended) to use electronic volume converters. Common S.A. is also the manufacturer of
such devices, e.g. volume correctors CMK-02 and data loggers CRI-02. On requests
COMMON S.A. may deliver these devices. Example of such installation is shown in Fig.14.

Fig 14. Assembly of the CPT-01 Quantometer and the CMK-02 volume corrector
(the volume corrector installed on the pipe)
The volume corrector needs three input signals:
• flow (from the low frequency or high frequency pulse transmitter),
• pressure,
• temperature.
The pressure pulse is taken from the pressure tap. It is recommended to take the pressure
pulses by means of the CKMT three way valve (Fig. 15) that enables to cut off the pressure

17
sensor, and in consequence to disassemble and inspect this sensor. There is no need to stop the
gas flow through the quantometer. The three way valve handle may be provided with a seal in
order to protect it against unauthorized handling. The temperature signal is taken from a sen-
sor installed in a temperature pocket downstream the quantometer (see Fig. 14).

Fig. 15. CKMT three way valve

It should be kept in mind that all connections of additional equipment to the quan-
tometer cause that the installation seals get damaged. Therefore such works may be
performed by the representative of the gas supply company or by the manufacturer.
Unused electric output sockets must be closed by means of factory caps in order to pro-
tect them against corrosion and dirt.

Notice:
Technical specification and construction may change due to improvements. This publication serves as general information
only, and all specifications are subject to confirmation by COMMON S.A.
