Abstract

An apparatus for measuring the throughput and average suction and discharge pressures of a compressor comprises pressure sensors for measuring the suction and discharge pressures of the compressor and in one embodiment a device for measuring gas temperature. The apparatus further comprises a data processor for receiving signals representative of the suction and discharge pressures of the compressor and generating a signal representative of the throughput of the compressor during a predetermined time interval.
