Daniel Liquid Turbine Flow Meters are installed in custody transfer and fiscalcustody transfer measurement applications. Typical installations for Danielturbine flow meters include crude oil and refined product pipelines, marketing

terminals, aviation refuelers as well as gathering stations and tank farms.

Flow meter requirements for pipelines and marketing terminals are unique.Daniel recognizes this and provides products designed specifically for eachof these demanding installations.

Marketing terminal and pipeline operators prefer Daniel turbine flow meters.This preference is attributed to:

Lower installation and maintenance costs

Measurement redundancy

Decades of petroleum measurement expertise

Customer support around the world

Lower Installation and Maintenance CostsWith Daniel Liquid Turbine Flow Meters, installation costs are reduced due tothe unique design of the electronics housing; the Universal Mounting Box

(UMB). Minimizing electrical conduit or cabling and usually eliminating theneed for an additional electrical junction box achieve these savings. Typicalsavings exceed $500 per meter installation.

Lower maintenance costs are enjoyed by end-users that have installed theSeries 1200 and 1500 Turbine Flow Meters. Lower costs are realizedbecause:

Spare parts inventories are minimized since these two productsshare the same pick-off and preamplifier;

downtime is minimized by enabling maintenance of pick-offsand preamplifiers without disturbing conduit or cabling; and

installation design is simplified with both meters sharing thesame flange-to-flange dimension and electrical connections.

Measurement RedundancyDowntime can have significant financial implications.To reduce downtime, Daniel turbine meters offer a

number of redundancy combinations.

The Series 1200 Turbine Flow Meter can besupplied with either single or dual pick-offs alongwith the dual channel preamplifier, which is standard.In many marketing terminal applications a singlepick-off is utilized. With the dual channel preamplifierthe second channel becomes a spare.

The Series 1500 Turbine Flow Meter offers a singleor dual UMB configuration. A dual UMB configurationoffers complete measurement redundancy withoutcompromising dual pulse signal transmission. This

flexibility allows pipeline operators to maintain themeter, while continuing to measure without isolatingpower to the second UMB.

A turbine meter is comprised of a cylindrical housing that contains a rotormounted on a bearing and shaft assembly. As fluid passes smoothly throughthe meter housing, it causes the rotor to spin with a rotational speed that is

proportional to the velocity of the fluid. The rotational speed is measured bya magnetic pick-up or pick-ups, which are mounted in a boss on the meterbody. Rotor blades or rim buttons pass through the magnetic field of thepick-up and generate a pulsing voltage in the coil of the pick-up assembly.Each voltage pulse represents a discrete volume. The total numbers ofpulses collected over a period of time represent the total metered volume.

Both rimmed and un-rimmed rotors have a hub, bearing and a series ofangled blades to which the rim is attached where the option for a rim isappropriate. The angle of the blades is typically set to minimize the drag ofthe rotor, and to minimize the change in meter factor (reported rate of flowper unit of revolution) across the operating flow range.

The bearings used in the rotor design can be stainless steel ball bearings ortungsten carbide journal bearings. The choice of bearing is driven by thetype of service the meter will be used in. For low flow, clean productapplications, the stainless steel ball bearing is preferred. In severeapplications such as crude oil and aviation fuel, tungsten carbide journalbearings are chosen due to the hardness and longevity of the bearing.

The Daniel liquid turbine families of meters have options where eitherbearing type or an alternative rotor material can be selected for theappropriate application.

The Series 1200 Turbine Flow Meter is specifically designed for marketingterminal and fuel blending service where repeatability is a criticalrequirement. The proven design of lightweight internals is ideally suited for

the applications found in terminal and load racks.

The meter provides a UMB with either one or two pick-offs and adual-channel preamplifier board. Most load rack measurement pointsrequire a single pulse output. Having a redundant pick-off and preamplifiercircuit ensures continuous operation. This meter's simple design assureshigh flow rates and extended flow range and sustained performance.

The Series 1200 Turbine Flow Meter can be installed horizontally orvertically, allowing for installation in space-constrained applications. Thestandard design of the Series 1200 meter includes a flow conditioning plate.Many customers have found that this plate has greatly reduced or eveneliminated the need for the traditional flow conditioning normally used with

turbine meters.

The Series 1200 Flow Meter is available in ANSI classes 150 and 300 witheither carbon steel or stainless steel bodies. The meters are available in 1,1.5, 2, 3 and 4 inch sizes.

This meter features a patented, expanding hanger that centers the internalassembly in the meter body. A lightweight rotor assembly is included withpatented self-cleaning, flow-through bearing design. The standard meter isavailable with stainless steel ball bearings. For severe applications,tungsten carbide journal bearings are available as an option in the 3 and4-inch sizes.

Key specifications include:

Capacity: 8.6 to 1430 BPH (6 to 1000 GPM)

Linearity: +/-0.25% for sizes 1 - 2 inches

+/- 0.15% for sizes 3 - 4 inches

Repeatability: +/-0.02%

Rangeability: 10:1

Hazardous Area Classification: CE, CSA, and UL approved

The Daniel Series 1500 Turbine Flow Meter is a rugged, reliable meterdesigned for demanding crude oil and refined product pipeline applications.

The predecessor to the Series 1500 meter was the Daniel PT Turbine FlowMeter. The Series 1500 Turbine Meter retains the proven internal assemblyfrom the PT meter along with the highly adaptable UMB.

Pipeline applications demand continuous, uninterrupted operation and oftenrequire dual pulse fidelity checking. The Series 1500 meter offers astandard UMB with a dual pulse output, with the pulse trains being 90o

electrically out of phase. A valuable option includes an additional UMB. Thesecond UMB permits complete measurement redundancy. The second UMBcan be configured to have dual pick-offs as well as a dual channelpreamplifier, resulting in a back-up system. This back-up system may beused to continue measurement with pulse fidelity checking.

The internal assembly for the Series 1500 meter is comprised of adual-hangar design offering upstream and downstream support and positiverotor centering. The standard bearing offering is a tungsten carbide journalthat offers exceptional longevity.

Key specifications include:

Rimmed or bladed rotor

Integral flow conditioning plate

Carbon steel or stainless steel (304 & 316 grades) meter bodies

Bi-directional flow measurement

304 or 316 stainless steel rotor assemblies

The meter is available in the following ANSI classes:150 and 300 ANSI: 1 - 18 inches

600 ANSI 1 - 8 inches

900 ANSI 1 - 4 inches

1500 ANSI 1 - 2.5 inches

Note: Sizes 1 to 2.5-inches are available in stainless steelmaterial only.

The Series 1500 Turbine Flow Meter may be supplied in adual UMB configuration. Flexible outputs are offered with1, 2, 3 or 4 phased pulse outputs. Each UMB housing has

one or two pick-offs and a dual channel preamplifier. Inthis configuration the Series 1500 Turbine Flow Meter offersup to four matched pulse outputs to accommodate a widevariety of metering and meter proving requirements.
