Description
Gas volume is physically dependent on temperature; as temperature rises, gas expands, and as it drops, gas contracts. Standard meters may register these volume changes as actual consumption, leading to billing inaccuracies. The Atmos – diaphragm gas meter with temperature compensation solves this issue through a sophisticated mechanical correction system.
The core of this technology lies in a synthetic bi-metal mechanism with distinct thermal expansion coefficients. When the temperature of the gas flow changes, this bi-metal component reacts by triggering a precise deformation or bending action. This physical change alters the length of the crank, which in turn adjusts the movement stroke of the diaphragm.
By modifying the cyclic volume in response to thermal shifts, the special design actively counteracts the volume differences caused by thermal expansion and contraction. The result is a meter that mechanically corrects the flow reading, ensuring that the volume registered is accurate and fair, regardless of whether it is freezing winter or hot summer.
