Innovative Gas Measurement: Cubic's Ultrasonic Breakthroughs for Smart Gas Meter

How Cubic innovative ultrasonic gas flow metering solutions realize reliable and credible gas metering?

Smart gas metering holds significant importance, as gas measurement is the sole basis for settlement in natural gas trade sector, closely linked with national laws and regulations for the accuracy, consistency, and traceability of gas measurement.

To help enhance the reliability and trustworthiness of smart gas metering, Cubic, a leading manufacturer of gas sensors and gas analyzers, has always been pioneering the application of ultrasonic technology for gas measurement. Cubic has made significant advancements in the ultrasonic gas flow sensors modules, which find widespread application in residential gas metering, commercial gas metering and industrial gas metering.

Residential Ultrasonic Gas Meter

In the field of residential gas metering, Cubic has developed Residential Ultrasonic Gas Meter, USM- G1.6/G2.5/G4, leveraging Cubic’s core mature ultrasonic technology. It is a type of electronic meter that adopts TOF (Time of Speed) principle to measure flow velocity of gas medium, with class 1 accuracy and high stability.

With built-in temperature and pressure compensation, along with intelligent software algorithm, Cubic Residential Ultrasonic Gas Meter, USM-G1.6/G2.5/G4 integrated with cubic self-developed gas flow sensor, presents high accuracy in air, 100% CH4, H1 and different natural gases under full temperature range. At the same time, the design of compact size and light weight, makes it easy for installation. Besides, Cubic Residential Ultrasonic Gas Meter is designed in the compliant with OIML R137 and EN14236 class 1 to ensure the precision and quality of the product.

Commercial Ultrasonic Gas Meter

To fit the applications in commercial gas metering field, Cubic introduces commercial ultrasonic gas meter, ranged from G6, G10, G16, G25, G40 to G65, which can measure minimum flow rate 0.06m3/h, and maximum flow rate is up to 100 m3/h.

Due to Cubic its own innovative ultrasonic flow sensor technology, Cubic commercial ultrasonic gas meter realizes high stability and high accuracy measurement for commercial applications, especially for low flow range (Qmin) measurement. It features built-in temperature and pressure compensation, ensuring precise measurements under varying conditions, including 100% CH4, and different natural gases in the air for full temperature range.

Furthermore, it excels in durability, with anti-contamination and high corrosion resistance. Cubic commercial ultrasonic gas meter also minimizes pressure loss due to the unobstructed flow path design and are immune to magnetic field effects, as it lacks magnetic induction elements.

Besides, for enhanced connectivity options, Cubic commercial ultrasonic gas meter combines with wireless communication GPRS and NB-IoT, which enables visible data readings of remaining gas volume.

To meet the unique demands of both residential and commercial gas meters, which necessitate ultra-wide range ratios, wide temperature tolerances, anti-contamination capabilities, and pulsating airflow measurement, Cubic has introduced ultrasonic gas meters that incorporate intelligent algorithms for gas density measurement, ensuring precise readings across various gas types, which can help achieve remote data management and top-up functions by login website by PC or mobile device, to save labor cost and bring convenience to both gas companies and end users.

Industrial Ultrasonic Gas Flow Meter

In the industrial sector, the accuracy of gas flow measurements is challenged by varying ambient conditions, including fluctuations in temperature, pressure, and dust levels.

To address these challenges, Cubic industrial ultrasonic gas flow meter incorporates internal pressure and temperature sensors. By adhering to the NX-19 mod standard and conducting volume conversion, the meter ensures consistently high performance, resulting in standardized flow readings without the need for additional flow volume correction equipment.

Cubic industrial ultrasonic gas flow meter is enhanced with an integrated wireless communication module, facilitating remote recharging, data monitoring, and operational status diagnostics, which provides users with an intelligent management experience. The built-in diagnostic functionality enables continuous monitoring of the flow meter's status, promptly triggering abnormal alarms when necessary.

Cubic industrial ultrasonic gas flow meter also boasts a durable stainless meter body housing titanium alloy transducers known for the excellent corrosion resistance, enabling the gas measurement with high noise immunity and long-term stability. Notably, the ultrasonic gas measurement method involves no moving parts, ensuring minimal wear and tear, and consequently, nearly maintenance-free operation.
