GE gas eliminator for liquid meters
GE gas eliminator is a component of a liquid meter, attached to the inlet fitting of a liquid meter to remove air and improve measurement accuracy.
Advantages of GE
- wide operating range – up to 600 l/h,
- high efficiency – up to 100% of separated air,
- metal case for impact protection,
- sealing of the body from unauthorized intervention.
Gas eliminator for fuel monitoring systems
GE gas eliminator can be used as an acessory for fuel usage counting (fuel monitoring) system and is installed in the supply and/or return fuel lines of an engine of a vehicle or stationary equipment.
Removing air from the fuel system allows:
- improve accuracy of the fuel consumption monitoring system,
- decrease wear of the fuel pump,
- ensure smooth engine operation and reduce emissions and CO2.
Installation of the gas eliminator – a fuel system example
Large volumes of air and foam are spotted in common rail-type systems, due to the difference in pressure inside the fuel line before and after the injection pump. Also, foaming occurs in systems where fuel is used to remove heat from the engine.
We recommend using the GE gas eliminator when installing liquid meters to any fuel system, where foam in the return fuel line is present. That’s especially relevant for powerful diesel engines – mining, construction and agricultural machinery, railway transport, special equipment for oil & gas.
The main place of installation of GE gas eliminator is in the return fuel line up to the liquid meter’s reverse chamber. This helps to remove air bubbles from the fuel, so the liquid meter will measure exactly the volume of the flowing fuel.
In a situation where there is a “suction” of air on the feed side of the fuel system, in case the fuel system health is good, we recommend installing an additional GE unit in the supply line, upstream of the liquid meter.
