A Guide to Different Types of Energy Meters [Infographic]
BTU meters are absolutely essential in today’s world; with the electric meter market expected to grow at 6.7% CAGR from 2020 to 2025, there is no stopping this domain from increasing. The industry’s market size is expected to range from $20.7 Billion in 2020 to $28.6...
Flowmeter Accuracy Vs. Repeatability
Although some believe that good repeatability is a measure of accuracy, this is a misconception. Repeatability is in no way an accuracy guarantee. Therefore, when considering a measurement device such as a flowmeter, if you see only a repeatability statement and no...
Achieving the Highest Energy Usage Accuracy Through Condensate Measurement
Typical steam distribution systems rely on steam flow measurements as a way to measure and bill energy usage at a given point-of-use (building or structure, Heat exchanger, fan coil unit, etc.). Does measuring and billing this way make a major assumption that may not...
New Milestone for CMAG in Pumped and Gravity Condensate Applications
Central Station Steam is proud to announce the sale of our 1000th CMAG meter for condensate service. Originally designed for pumped condensate service with no flow profiling or piping straight run required, the CMAG has now been customer proven to be an excellent...
Flow Meters And LEED: Your Green Building Certification
In the United States, there are more than 5 million commercial and industrial buildings, and combined they are responsible for 45 percent of the total amount of greenhouse gasses that are generated in this country. Furthermore, the EPA reports that 30 percent of the...
Selecting A Flow Meter For Pressurized Systems
It’s easy to choose the wrong flow meter. There are many different meter technologies on the market today, all with their own strengths and weaknesses. These variations in functionality and performance are very important to consider when selecting the most appropriate...
Types Of Volumetric Flow Meters
Flow meters measure the amount of liquid, gas or vapor passing through a piping system. Most flow meters are designed to measure the velocity, or speed at which the fluid flows through a pipe. They use that information along with the pipe’s inner cross sectional area...
Not All Flow Meters Are Created Equal!
As energy usage has become a lightning rod for conversation and studies regarding efficiency, the ability to measure and quantify energy consumption has become forefront in the battle to get a handle on what is being used and how efficient or inefficient that use may...
Truth in Specsmanship, Part 3
This time I will review the specsmanship of a single turbine insertion style meter. Its manufacturer infers the meter’s performance by once again mixing and matching information in an attempt to project its capabilities beyond what is possible, with regard to the...
Truth in Specsmanship, Part 2
This installment of “Truth In Specsmanship” will examine the insertion magmeter technology as it relates to turndown. Turndown is the operating range of a given meter, based on the maximum operating velocity, divided by the turndown factor. For example, suppose a...
Truth in Specsmanship, Part 1
Most of today’s flow technologies (paddle wheel, turbines, orifice plates, variable area, pitot tube, vortex, and magnetic) are volumetric, meaning that these devices measure velocity and then calculate volume by using a known cross section area (Velocity...
