I have been trying to persuade my gas supplier to change my meter to one
with a pulsed output, so I can feed the data into a building management
system. It's kind of peripheral to my work and I want to learn how these
things operate.

The gas supplier is playing dumb and pretending not to understand, for
reasons not clear to me.

I have a Schlumberger R5 meter which says it delivers one pulse per cubic
foot, but I don't think it has the necessary sensor fitted. There's a blue
plastic plug above the dials. I can't find out about this particular meter
as this company were taken over some years ago.

Does anybody know how you take off the pulsed output from this meter, or who
I might contact?

Unfortunately it's not yours to tamper with!  The meter asset is now owned 
by your shipper.

Leave well alone.

Take it from a man that works for the transporter!


Sorry

AE
