Utility Measurement Application

Industrial Utility and Energy Flow Visibility

Useful utility measurement starts by defining which line, user or process needs to become visible and how the resulting flow data will be used.

What Needs to Be Measured

Define the utility boundary and metering point

How should an industrial utility measurement boundary be defined?

Define the utility, the line or user being measured, the minimum, normal and peak flow, and how the result will be reported. The meter direction follows the medium, installation condition and required data output.

Identify the utility, expected operating range, measurement location and data output before selecting the meter technology.

Flow measurement as a way to locate hidden energy waste in steam, compressed air, cooling water and process utilities.

Site Conditions

Conditions that affect meter selection

Operating condition

Utility networks often lose energy through leaks, bypasses, oversized lines or poorly monitored usage points.

Selection risk

Without measured flow, operators may see energy cost but not know which line or process is responsible.

Recommended Meter Direction

Review suitable meter families

Final selection depends on the actual media, operating range and installation condition.
