Product Overview
Electronic Volume Converter EK280 is a compact, battery-powered device designed for precise gas volume conversion in industrial applications. This advanced system integrates seamlessly with diaphragm, turbine, and rotary gas meters, supporting both flow-proportional pulse recording and direct Absolute Encoder index reading.
Key Features
Electronic Volume Converter EK280 calculates conversion factor C and compressibility factor ratio K using real-time consumption data and analog measurements from integrated temperature and pressure sensors. It computes volumes and flow rates at both base and measurement conditions with exceptional accuracy.
Flexible Configuration
Electronic Volume Converter EK280 offers versatile compressibility factor programming – either as constants for all gases or through various calculation methods. The modular design includes a main unit with integrated or external pressure sensors and permanently connected temperature monitoring.
Communication Options
The unit supports optional 2G/4G modem integration for wireless data transmission. For hazardous Ex zone 0/1 environments, specialized lithium battery modules ensure safe operation. In Ex zone 2 or safe areas, broad-range power supplies are available. Ethernet connectivity provides LAN integration alternatives.
Advanced Connectivity
Four adjustable digital outputs and configurable serial interfaces make the converter suitable for diverse natural gas measurement applications. Additional sensor inputs enable comprehensive station monitoring capabilities.
Independent Data Management
The system maintains independent communication protocols, allowing simultaneous data transfer to remote control systems, SCADA networks, and billing platforms without interference, ensuring reliable operation across multiple system integrations.
