a separate battery compartment and are closed with a plastic shock-resistant cover, which is sealed
with a self-adhesive tamper evident label or a hinged seal by the manufacturer (Figure 1), and
during operation - by the organization for the operation of gas facilities authorized by the plant -
by the manufacturer.
1.4. Design and operation, technique (method) of measurements

Under the action of excess pressure, the gas through the inlet fitting fills the sealed body of
the meter and through the distribution mechanism and the system of channels enters the working
cavities of the measuring unit (primary volume transducer). The central body of the measuring
unit is divided into two parts. Each part is divided into two semi-chambers by an elastic
membrane. The gas flow distribution mechanism includes a valve device connected to the volume
Подпись и дата

indication system. The gas flow is generated by the differential pressure at the inlet and outlet of
the meter.
The principle of operation of the meter is based on the simultaneous measurement of two
parameters of the gas flow - volume and temperature under operating conditions. Gas volume
measurement is carried out by a chamber-type primary volume transducer with a number-pulse
output, the principle of operation of which is based on the movement of movable partitions
(diaphragms) of the chambers when gas enters the meter body. The inlet and outlet of the gas, the
Инв. № дубл.

volume of which is to be measured, causes a variable movement of the diaphragms and, through a
system of levers and a reducer, actuates a mechanism on the shaft of which magnets are installed.
The signal is picked up by a magnetically controlled sensor, which generates electrical pulses at
the output, the number of which is directly proportional to the volume of gas passed through the
meter. Gas temperature measurement under operating conditions is carried out by a built-in
Взам. инв. №

semiconductor temperature transducer located in the meter body and in thermal contact with the
measured gas.
The method of measuring a gas meter is based on the separation of the gas passing through
the meter by movable converting elements (diaphragms) into a fraction of the volume and their
subsequent cyclical summation.
Подпись и дата

Signals from the primary transducer of volume and temperature transducer are fed to an
electronic reading device with an LCD. The electronic reading device automatically calculates the
measured gas volume, bringing its volume to a temperature of + 20 ° C, taking into account the
pressure correction factor Kp, and displays it on the LCD.
Инв. № подл.

Лист

Изм. Лист № докум. Подпись Дата
The pressure correction factor Kp is calculated by the formula:

, (1)
where:
Pср.бар –average barometric pressure in the region, mm. rt. Art.
Pизб –overpressure in the gas pipeline, mm. rt. Art.
At release from production, Кр = 1 is set.
At the request of the consumer, a different coefficient Kp is set taking into account the average
barometric pressure in the region and the excess pressure in the gas pipeline with a mark in the
passport.
When each pulse arrives from the primary volume transducer, the electronic reading device,
according to the data obtained, calculates the volume increment for one pulse, reduced to standard
conditions according to the formula
273,15  20
V   0,6 , (2)
273,15  Tp

where
ΔV –volume increment for one impulse reduced to standard conditions, m3;;
Tр –gas temperature under operating conditions, ° С
The total volume Vсч, l, is calculated by the formula
Vсч= Vсч+ΔV.

The magnetic field sensor is used to form a sequence of pulses during the rotation of a
magnet installed on the axis of the mechanism, which transmits the translational movement of the
counter chambers into the rotational movement of the axis. The signal from the sensor goes to the
counting input of the microcontroller.
The temperature sensor is used to measure the temperature of the gas inside the meter. The
output signal of the temperature sensor, which is a digital code of the temperature value, is read
by the microcontroller. In the event of a malfunction of the temperature sensor, a substitute
temperature value of + 20 ° C is used in the calculation.
The microcontroller counts the number of pulses of the magnetic field sensor, proportional
to the volume of gas passed through the meter, and calculates the amount of gas taking into
account the gas temperature, bringing the measured volume value to the standard value at + 20 °
C.
The indication of the measured volume and other information is provided by a liquid
crystal indicator (LCD). The meter is switched to different indication modes when the magnet is
brought to the reed switch located on the front panel of the meter under the protective plastic case.
The meter transmits information to the gas metering system about the measured volume,
gas temperature, meter operating time, etc. via radio channel 433 MHz and via GSM channel.
The meter contains a built-in shut-off valve that serves to remotely shut off the gas supply
to the consumer upon receipt of a command from the centralized gas metering network. The valve
is controlled by a microcontroller.

2.3.1.9 Shut-off valve control

The meter contains a built-in shut-off valve located inside the housing at the inlet. The
valve serves to shut off the gas supply to the consumer. The valve can only be opened remotely by
a dispatcher.
The valve automatically closes and the gas supply stops in the following cases:
- removing the cover of the power compartment;
- discharge of the built-in battery;
Подпись и дата

- excess of gas consumption 1.2Qmax;


- at the command from the gas metering dispatch point received via the GSM channel.
In these cases, the meter automatically transmits data to the metering system via the GSM
radio channel. The closing of the valve is briefly displayed on the LCD with the message "----"
(Figure 8).

Figure 8 - Indication of valve closure


Closing occurs only at the moment of data exchange between the system server and the

counter, the exchange period is set in the system settings.


To open the valve, the consumer must:
- inform about the shutdown of the gas supply by the valve to your gas supply
organization, find out the reason for the shutdown of the gas and get recommendations for their
elimination;

- after eliminating the reasons for the gas shutdown, inform the gas supplying organization
and obtain permission to open the valve;

- be sure to shut off your gas-consuming appliances (gas stove, boiler, etc.). This is due to
the fact that, for safety reasons, at the moment of opening the valve, the meter checks that there is
no gas flow, i.e. gas leaks, because if a leak is detected, the valve will turn off the gas supply
again;
- press the button on the front side of the reading device housing. The meter will connect
to the system server and receive a command to open the valve. The display will briefly show the
inscription "o o o o" (Figure 18), which means the beginning of the valve opening process.

Figure 18 - Indication of valve opening


Then, the absence of gas flow (leakage) is automatically checked for 60 seconds, (Figure
19).

Figure 19 - Indication of checking the absence of gas flow


Upon completion of the lack of flow check, data is transmitted via the GSM channel in
accordance with paragraph 2.3.1.9 to confirm the state of the open valve. Upon successful
completion of the communication session, the meter switches to the volume indication mode.
If the consumer has not pressed the button on the front side of the reading device, then the
valve will open only at the time of the next communication between the meter and the system
server for data transmission. The exchange takes place at a given frequency. For example, if the
exchange period is set once a week, then the valve can be turned on no earlier than seven days

from the moment it was turned off.


Attention! When the valve is opened, the consumer's gas appliances must be shut off,
otherwise the valve will again shut off the gas supply.

2.3.2 Operation of counters as part of a data collection system

Meters OMEGA ET GSM, OMEGA ETK GSM can work as part of a data collection
system and centralized gas metering of a gas supplying organization. Information interaction is
carried out over the radio communication channel of the GSM cellular network. To do this, SIM
cards of a telecom operator are installed in the meters. If necessary, any external antenna with
Взам. инв. №

SMA-M connector operating in the 900/1800 MHz range can be connected to the meter. These
actions are performed by specialists when commissioning the meter as part of the system. The
procedure for working with meters in the data collection system is given in the "Instructions for
the operator of the data collection system for gas meters OMEGA ET GSM, OMEGA ETK GSM
GUNK.407260.013I2".
Attention! To ensure uninterrupted communication of the meter, it is necessary to use only
