Smart Gas Meters

AES-ZA smart diaphragm gas metering

AES-ZA Smart Diaphragm Gas Meter

Precise measurement, remote monitoring and reliable gas metering.


Product Overview

Solid build quality, high accuracy and advanced technical details make the AES-ZA diaphragm gas meter a high-grade measuring instrument. It provides precise measurements, consistent measuring stability, a long service life and high reliability. High-grade materials help make the meter resistant to corrosion.

The AES-ZA smart diaphragm gas meter combines the AES-ZA mechanical diaphragm gas meter with a built-in shut-off valve and a smart controller with a communication module.

Application

Suitable for natural gas, town gas and other gases conforming to EN 437.
