Abstract: A positive displacement gas meter is a device that measures volumetrically as opposed to an inferential device such as an orifice meter. A positive displacement meter is constructed so that compartments are alternately filled and emptied, and the number of cycles indicated. Domestic meters are those positive displacement meters having a rated capacity less than 500 CFH. The vast majority of these meters currently produced are made of die-cast aluminum. Many meters are still produced from tinned sheet steel, and a few of cast iron. All such meters produced by American Meter Company are of the four compartment, D-slide valve design, and are equipped with molded Duramie diaphragms as a standard feature.
