Contemporary systems for heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) rely to a great extent on technology for flow and energy calculation. Owners of commercial and industrial facilities aim to deploy advanced flow metering solutions that allow them to accomplish optimum hydronic cooling and heating levels, even under very difficult conditions. In chilled/hot water systems, the … Continued
The McCrometer® McMag 2000 and McMag 3000 may have similar names and a small number change, but the differences between the two electromagnetic (mag) meters go much deeper. For example, the Mc®Mag 3000’s sensor is identical to the FPI’s, except it has more electrodes, and the line is more invasive. The tilted sensor positioning, however, … Continued

These ultrasonic meters monitor flow velocity through ultrasound waves and are available in both transit time and Doppler technology choices. Let’s explore a few reasons why these flow meters are worth considering. … Continued
South East Water and Anglian Water are a pair of British water utilities that sought to determine whether water quality could be used as a tool to provide information regarding bursts and leaks. Syrinix addressed this very concern with its PIPEMINDER product. The latest evolution of PIPEMINDER allows it to be connected to water quality … Continued
In parallel with propeller meters, straightening vanes and flow straighteners have become a significant component of flow calculation in the agricultural industry, and with an important purpose. Flow straighteners and vanes, usually mounted close to flow disturbers or in short straight-run applications, minimize swirl and assist propeller meters in achieving a precise flow reading. With … Continued
As a bacteria, legionella may cause legionellosis, better known as the type of severe type of pneumonia called Legionnaires’ disease. If left untreated, it can become fatal. Legionella has greater chances of growing industrial buildings where water becomes stagnant, especially ones that may be empty. It can even resist the effects of chlorine, reinforcing the … Continued
