METER RUN option
To ensure absolute metering accuracy, it is recommended that meter tubes are purchased and
manufactured to complement the orifice fitting. This ensures concentricity between the pipe and
the fitting and eliminates uncertainties associated with misalignment.
valveIT can supply the following items for a complete metering solution;
• Orifice fitting with Meter Tube including straightening vane/profiler
• DP transmitters and Process Transmitters
• Flow Computer and Enclosure
