2. Gas meter prover - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_meter_prover

   When proving a meter using a manually controlled bell, an operator must first fill the bell with a controlled air supply or raise it manually by opening a valve and pulling a chained mechanism, seal the bell and meter and check the sealed system for leaks, determine the flow rate needed for the meter, install a special flow-rate cap on the ...

3. Thermodynamic pump testing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermodynamic_pump_testing

   The thermodynamic method is used for performance testing of pumps, flow meter calibration, system curve tests, and other applications. It is capable of achieving results with uncertainties of less than 1% in pump efficiency and less than 1.5% in flow [ 3 ] while being able to test piping configurations where other conventional pump testing ...

4. Check valve - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Check_valve

   Tilting-disc inconel check valve Check valve symbol on piping and instrumentation diagrams.The arrow shows the flow direction. Vertical lift check valve. A check valve, non-return valve, reflux valve, retention valve, foot valve, or one-way valve is a valve that normally allows fluid (liquid or gas) to flow through it in only one direction.

5. Gas meter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_meter

   With the gas flow directed by internal valves, the chambers alternately fill and expel gas, producing a nearly continuous flow through the meter. As the diaphragms expand and contract, levers connected to cranks convert the linear motion of the diaphragms into rotary motion of a crank shaft which serves as the primary flow element .

6. Flow measurement - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_measurement

   Turbine meters are less accurate than displacement and jet meters at low flow rates, but the measuring element does not occupy or severely restrict the entire path of flow. The flow direction is generally straight through the meter, allowing for higher flow rates and less pressure loss than displacement-type meters.

7. Metering pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metering_pump

   There are two check valves, often ball check valves, attached to the pump head, one at the inlet line and the other at the outlet line. The inlet valve allows flow from the inlet line to the piston chamber, but not in the reverse direction. The outlet valve allows flow from the chamber to the outlet line, but not in reverse.
