Installation

WARNING

Please observe the following to ensure that neither persons nor the gas meter are damaged during installation and operation:

– Note the max. allowable operating pres-

surep page2 (Type label/Index plate).

– Note the permitted ambient temperaturetm and

gas temperaturetg, see page2 (Type label/ Index plate) or page7 (Technical data).

– The gas meter is suitable for mechanical ambient

conditions of Class M1 of Directive 2004/22/EC. For gas meter versions BK..A, BK..E and BK..B,

ClassE2 for electromagnetic ambient conditions

also applies.

– When installing the diaphragm gas meterBK

with integrated valve, make sure that no dirt

particles get into the meter and thus into the

valve.

– The yellow sealing sleeve protects the pres-

sure test point on the gas meter. It may only be opened for connecting a pressure measuring line.

– Use seals made from tested materials. Elastomer

seals or asbestos-free ﬂat seals from Elster are recommended.

– For meters resistant to high temperatures, only

use seals tested to be resistant to high tempera-

tures. – Only use the seals once. – For installation and operation, note the applica-

ble national regulations and the directives of the gas supply company. For Germany, the valid DVGW Code of Practice G600 (DVGW-TRGI) applies.

– Work on meters and the installation of meters

which are marked with and are installed in

potentially explosive atmospheres may only be carried out by persons with appropriate qualiﬁ- cations.

, see

GB-3

Page 4

– The gas meter marked with must be in-

cluded in the equipotential bond when being installed in a potentially explosive atmosphere, e.g. by connecting it to a grounded pipeline. Installation must be carried out in accordance with EN60079-14.

– The gas meter marked with must be pro-

tected from falling parts.

▷ If the calibration seal has been damaged or re-

moved, the gas meter is no longer approved for measurements which are subject to statutory testing.

▷ If the gas meter is stored or installed outdoors,

protect the site against rain. Condensing humid- ity is permitted.

 Remove protective caps.

▷

Installation in the horizontal position: connectors must be pointing upwards.

▷ Note direction of ﬂow (arrow). ▷ The gas meter must not be in contact with ma-

sonry or other parts.

▷ Ensure that there is sufﬁcient installation space. ▷ Ensure unobstructed view of the index. ▷

The seal faces on the screw unions must be

clean and damage-free.

▷ For the compression of seals and the resulting

tightening torques for the screw unions, the seal manufacturers’ speciﬁcations must be observed.

Tightening torques for the recommended ﬂat

seals in conjunction with screw connectors pursuant to DIN 3376-1 and 3376-2, see www.docuthek.com → Elster-Instromet → Prod- ucts → Gas measuring devices → Diaphragm meters → Ergänzung für Betriebsanleitung BK, Verschraubungen und Anzugsmomente für BK- G1,6 bis BK-G25 (Supplement to BK operating instructions, Screw unions and tightening tor- ques forBK-G1.6 toBK-G25)(D).

Temperature test point

▷

Temperature sensors can be inserted into the

thermowells for measuring the gas temperature in the meter housing.

 Secure each of the temperature sensors using

the capstan screw provided.

Connecting the pressure measuring line

WARNING

In order to ensure that the gas meter is tight:

– The pressure test nipple must not be twisted,

bent, or otherwise manipulated.

– When installing, always secure the pressure test

nipple using a suitable spanner.

▷

Functional safety and reliability are ensured only if the material combination of the screw connector and the pressure line are inter-matched.

▷

Only use the olive and the attached union nut supplied. The olive is secured to the sealing sleeve.

▷

When re-ordering, use original Parker EO pro- gressive ring ﬁttings PSR/DPR.

▷

Use corrosion-resistant, seamless precision steel tube pursuant to DINEN10305-4 (external di- ameter 6mm, material E235= 1.0308). For other materials, use a suitable adapter and note the Parker/EO recommendations.

▷ Install pipes free of mechanical stress.

go.

▷

At the same time, press the end of the pipe ﬁrmly against the stop.

9 Mark the position of the union nut and tighten

with about 1½ turns.

Commissioning

Once the tightness test has been successfully com- pleted, the gas meter is ready for operation.

▷ Slowly open the manual valve.

▷

Should the diaphragm gas meterBK be ordered with a valveVp, but without control electronics to be complemented by a third party, the technical data of the control interface is to be requested from ElsterGmbH and observed.

The manufacturer of the control electronics is

responsible for creating the conditions required for safe operation of the valve. Instructions on commissioning and operation are to be taken from the operating instructions for the control electronics.

... with valve variant Vs (Smart Valve)

WARNING

– Depending on national regulations, a limited

and technically safe gas ﬂow rate in the cus- tomer’s open consumer piping is allowed, see page7 (Technical data).

– Assessment of the non-critical gas ﬂow rate with

regard to amount and duration, which occurs when the valve is released, is to be carried out by the grid operator.

– The minimum operating pressure on the inlet

must not be undershot, see page7 (Techni- cal data). Otherwise, when the valve is released and if the customer’s consumer piping is open at the same time, the valve may be completely opened.

“Smart Valve” valve function

▷

The “Smart Valve” is switched remotely by the data

management system. The valve ﬁrst switches to the “Released” position. From the “Released” posi- tion, the valve automatically switches to the “Open” position, if the downstream installation is tight.

Released

▷

The “Smart Valve” opens an internal bypass and

releases a minimum gas ﬂow into the customer’s closed consumer piping. Pressure equalization takes place between the inlet and outlet side of the valve.

Open

▷ Following pressure equalization, the valve auto-

matically opens by spring force and fully releases the gas supply. If consumers of the customer are open, pressure equalization cannot occur and the valve remains in the “Released” position and continues to release only the minimum gas ﬂow rate of the bypass.

Closed

▷

The valve and the bypass are closed in the event

of remote shut-down.

▷ All valve positions are kept de-energized.

Maintenance/Removal

Gas meters BK-G1.6 to 25 from Elster are mainte- nance-free (constraints for BK-G...E... and BK-G...B).

▷ When used for custody transfer measurements,

recalibration must be carried out in accordance with national directives. If the screw unions are loosened for maintenance

▷

work or retesting, replace the seals.

▷ After the gas meter has been removed, immedi-

ately close the connectors with protective caps in order to prevent ingress of dirt particles.

▷

For meters with electronic indexes(BK-G...E... and BK-G...B), it may be necessary to change the battery, see “Operating instructions for op- erators and installers” for the corresponding electronic index.

WARNING

A certain amount of gas may remain in the gas meter. Taking into consideration the risk of explo- sion, it is important to adopt safety measures, e.g.:

– Following removal of the gas meter, purge it

thoroughly with inert gas.

– For transporting the gas meter with gas residue,

use a vehicle with an open or a ventilated load- ing area.

– The indexes must not be opened in an explo-

sion-hazard area even for maintenance and repair. Opening of the service cover on the electronic index, e.g. to change the battery, is permitted– see “Operating instructions for operators and installers” for the corresponding electronic index.

– Meters which are installed in a potentially ex-

plosive atmosphere may only be cleaned using a damp cloth to avoid static electricity charge.

Accessories

We recommend using Elster GmbH accessories only.

Meters which are marked with may only be ret- roﬁtted with communications modules certiﬁed in accordance with 94/9/EC and which correspond to the appropriate interface parameters (see page

7 (Technical data)).
