CORUS
< T, PT, PTZ Gas Volume Converter Application Description
< Conforms to European Standard CORUS is an electronic volume converter The volume registered by the meter is
EN 12405-1 and EN 12405-1/A1 dedicated to commercial and industrial converted to reference conditions using the
< MID approval applications. It converts the actual volume formula :

hazardous area (zone 0) conditions. Thus, CORUS is a key element
Terminology
< Large integrated database in the whole Actaris chain, from the meter
Vm unconverted volume registered by the meter
< Compressibility according to to billing data. Vb converted volume in reference (base) conditions
AGANX19, S-GERG, AGA 8 CORUS uses the measured working values Tm gas temperature in operating conditions
Tb reference (base) temperature
(gross or detailed methods) or of volume, pressure and temperature to Pm gas pressure in operating conditions
Pb reference (base) pressure
