Thermal Flow Meters For Natural Gas Applications

Source: Fox Thermal Instruments, Inc.

In addition to rising energy prices, pressure from regulatory agencies to reduce emissions and improve efficiency has spurred manufacturers to engage in submetering.

Industrial facilities and organizations with multiple buildings or processes place great value on accounting of natural gas consumption because of its many benefits:

  • Exposing high consumption points within large gas feed systems
  • Identifying leaks in fuel feed lines
  • Evaluations of equipment efficiency
  • Diagnosing process inefficiencies
  • Promote conservation

Current economic uncertainty has been another major motivating factor for manufacturers to save energy and cut operating costs. Such challenges are bringing about a wave of energy conscious approaches to processing applications.

Sub-metering natural gas consumption is ideal for:

  • Applying energy costs to Cost of Goods accounting
  • Analyzing aging process equipment
  • Periodic equipment efficiency auditing
