Positive Diplacement Meter
Model ZC 17
The Satam Positive Diplacement Meter (PD Meter) is a system with freely-moving blades used to measure petroleum product such as fuels, bio-fuels and refined liquid hydrocarbon and nono corrosive chemicals.
Its simple design with only two pairs of blades and one moving rotor makes it exceptionally robust nd allows the user to make significatnt saving in maintenance costs.
Sector of Application :
Oil Depots
For oil product reception and loading stations for tank truck tank car and ships
Hydrocarbon transportation
Distribution of fuel oil or fuel by road tanker
Aircraft Refuelling
Aircraft dispensers fuel oil by road tanker
Army
Depot supplies and loading of trucks
Transport companies
Refueling of locomotives, trucks and public transport coaches
Marine applications
Refuelling of ships
Mining sites
Refuelling of struck or site machinery
Key points
Reduced pressure loss
0.3 to 0,5 bar at maxium flow rate
Low maintenance costs
Simple and robust design with mechanical components interchangeable between the different models
Stability of measurement
Accuracy of measurement guaranteed over a period of many years without any drift in the calibration curve
Modular design
Wide range of accessories for performing customized measurement applications
Robust construction
Flowmeter manifold is seperated from measurement chamber to eiminate any posibble influence of external mechanical stress on measurement accuracy.
