Diaphragm gas meters BK-G.6 to G5
Residential or commercial diaphragm gas meters
BK for recording gas consumption values for natural
gas, town gas, propane and butane, as gases of the
first to third families pursuant to DIN EN 437:2003
(DVGW Code of Practice G260). If used for internal
GB
measurements which are not subject to statutory
testing, the gas meter is also suitable for hydrogen,
nitrogen, air and inert gases.
The meters are designed for use in air at normal
atmospheric conditions. For use in other environments, please contact the manufacturer (see also
page 4 (Installation)).
BK with integrated “Smart Valve”
Not suitable for highly contaminated gases, e.g.
town gas.
Potentially explosive atmosphere
Diaphragm gas meters that are labelled with
and (see sticker near the index) are suitable for
operation in potentially explosive atmospheres, see
page10 (Declarations of conformity).
The meter function is only guaranteed when used
under the specified operating conditions – see
page 9 (Technical data). Any other use is considered as non-compliant.

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-
surep
page2 (Type label/Index plate).
– Note the permitted ambient temperaturetm and
gas temperaturetg, see page2 (Type label/
Index plate) or page9 (Technical data).
– The gas meters are certified for mechanical
environments pursuant to Class M1 of Directive
2004/22/EC. When installed, the meters must
not be subject to permanent vibration such as
that caused by machines in the vicinity. In case
of doubt, vibration isolation must be provided.
For gas meter versions BK..A, BK..E and BK..B,
ClassE2 for electromagnetic environments also
applies.
– The dangers of chemical reactions between
gas meter parts and the chemical substances
in the environment are to be discussed by the
manufacturer and the operator and must be
eliminated.
– When installing the diaphragm gas meterBK with
integrated valve, make sure that no dirt particles
get into the meter and thus into the valve.
– The yellow sealing sleeve protects the pressure
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.
– Only use the seals once.
– For meters resistant to high temperatures, only
use seals tested to be resistant to high tempera-
tures.

– For installation and operation, note the applicable
12
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 qualifications.
– 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 EN60079-14.
– The gas meter marked with must be pro-
tected from falling parts.
– Avoid subjecting the unit to mechanical stress
and prevent damage. Gas meters must be installed without any mechanical stress, preferably
only by suspending them on the connectors.
When using additional clamps, it must be ensured that no lateral forces act on the gas meter.
These can be avoided by using flexible or supple
connection lines, for instance.
▷ 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.
▷ Meters which are marked with H3 are suitable
for installation outdoors without additional protection.
Remove protective caps.
▷
Installation in the vertical 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.
▷ Ensure that the seal is correctly seated.
Co-axial meters:
▷ The seal must be centred over the internal dia-
meter.
▷
Note the installation position of the pressure ring.
The inner beaded edge must point upwards.
▷ Replace damaged pressure rings when replac-
ing the meter.
Co-axial and two-pipe meters:
▷ 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 BKG1,6 bis BK-G25 (Supplement to BK operating
instructions, Screw unions and tightening tor-
ques forBK-G1.6 toBK-G25)(D).
Install the gas meter free of mechanical stress.
▷
If a pulse transmitter IN-Z6x is used for pulse
tapping on the gas meter marked with – see
Data sheet for pulse transmitter IN-Z6x (D,GB)→
www.docuthek.com→ Elster-Instromet→ Prod-
ucts→ Gas measuring devices→ Diaphragm
meters→ Pulse transmitterIN-Z61 and the
standard EN60079-14 (Explosive atmospheres).
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.
Pressure test point on housing
(optional)

▷
When using an elastomer seal, always use a
pressure ring (shape A).
