Description (English):

This part of ISO 17089 specifies requirements and recommendations for ultrasonic gas meters (USMs), which utilize acoustic signals to measure the flow in the gaseous phase in closed conduits. This part of ISO 17089 is applicable to transit time USMs and is focused towards industrial flow measurement. Included are meters comprising meter bodies as well as meters with field-mounted transducers. There are no limits on the size of the meter. It can be applied to the measurement of almost any type of gas; such as but not limited to air, hydrocarbon gases, and steam. This part of ISO 17089 specifies performance, calibration (when required), and output characteristics of USMs for gas flow measurement and deals with installation conditions. NOTE It is possible that national or other regulations apply which can be more stringent than those in this part of ISO 17089.

Abstract

Overview

ISO 17089-2:2012 - "Measurement of fluid flow in closed conduits - Ultrasonic meters for gas - Part 2: Meters for industrial applications" defines requirements and recommendations for transit‑time ultrasonic gas meters (USMs) used in industrial flow measurement. The standard covers meters with integrated meter bodies and field‑mounted transducers, for essentially any gas (air, hydrocarbon gases, steam, etc.), and sets out performance, calibration, output, installation and verification expectations for industrial (Class 3 and 4) applications. It also notes that national regulations may be more stringent.

Key topics and requirements

Principles of measurement
- Transit‑time USM operation and acoustic path types (axial, diametrical, chordal).
- Factors affecting USM performance (gas properties, pressure/temperature, flow profile).
Meter characteristics
- Performance indications, operating conditions and classification (typical Class 3: utilities/process; Class 4: flare/vent).
- Mechanical requirements: meter body, connections, ultrasonic ports, pressure tappings, anti‑roll, flow conditioners and markings.
- Transducer, electronics, firmware/software requirements and diagnostic capabilities.
Performance, uncertainty and calibration
- Requirements for performance specifications, repeatability, resolution and maximum peak‑to‑peak error.
- Flow test and calibration procedures, static leakage and pressure testing, dimensional and dynamic testing.
- In‑situ verification and meter diagnostics to support automated condition monitoring.
Installation and handling
- Installation conditions, flow profile considerations, handling and transportation guidance to maintain measurement integrity.
Testing and verification
- On‑site diagnostics, in‑situ verification methods and guidance for dynamic testing under flowing conditions.

Practical applications and users

ISO 17089-2 is intended for engineers and organizations involved in industrial gas flow measurement, including:

Plant and process engineers specifying flowmeters for utilities and process control.
Instrumentation and metering engineers responsible for selection, installation and calibration of ultrasonic gas meters.
Calibration laboratories and test facilities conducting flow verification and acceptance testing.
Operators measuring vent, flare or process gases where robust diagnostics and wide rangeability and low pressure loss are required. Benefits of applying ISO 17089-2 include improved measurement repeatability, reduced pressure drop, better handling of pulsating flows, and standardized diagnostics for operational assurance.
