Why choose it

​ECOR6 is a TYPE 1 volume converter, compliant with European Directives 2014/32/EU (MID) and 2014/34/EU (ATEX) and is specifically designed to meet the requirements of UNI TS 11291 and 155/08 Resolution of the Italian Authority for Electricity and Gas for the band ≥G10 of Measurement Groups.

ECOR6 performs the PTZ, PT or T type conversion of the volume measured by the meter under the standard reference conditions (base condition). The ECOR6 has the following features and functions:

  • LCD display with multi-level menu
  • Logging of consumption values
  • Remote transmission of the readings (compensated by temperature and pressure)

The apparatus has, as standard equipment, two digital outputs; one for repeating the correct volumes and the other for reporting an alarm. Data protection and inviolability of programming parameters is ensured by both sealable switches and programmable passwords.

ECOR6 is battery powered.

Data Communication

  • GPRS communication (point-to-point) 
  • CTR and DLMS data communication protocols 
  • Local communication via ZVEI infrared optical port, according to EN 62056-21 standard

Functionality

​Conversion of the measured volume is done using an algorithm that requires the following variables:

  • Volume of gas measured by the meter: acquired by the device through the impulsive input. 
  • Temperature: measured through an integrated digital probe
  • Gas pressure: measured by means of an integrated digital transducer.

Gas Characteristics

The device calculates the degree of compressibility of the gas using standard methods or a constant value and finally provides the value of the converted volume (in standard m³)
