An overview of natural gas metering with ultrasonic technology including "On-line" (or "Live") meter validation

Introductory concepts for the measurement of natural gas using the principle of pulse transit time measurement are discussed in this white paper. Diagnostics typical to multipath transit time meters using ultrasonic pulses are also described, along with multipath arrangements and transducer types. Guidance is provided for the proper application, installation and condition-based monitoring of ultrasonic meters with respect to RMG by Honeywell technology to assure continued measurement integrity.
