Heating and cooling systems are commonly used in a variety of production processes, and these systems can demand a considerable amount of energy.
Having an active monitoring system can help you understand the efficiency of your equipment, how much it is costing to run, and how you can change your system or production times to save energy and money. It can also help you better estimate the final cost of your product.
SUTO is our trustworthy supplier and has all the necessary equipment to set up the metering and monitoring system. Let’s see how the basic set-up of an electric boiler and heating exchange system would be:
Electric Boiler
– Power Meter Sensor: used to measure the electricity consumption of the heating element and other electric equipment the system might use, like pumps, for example.
– Ultrasonic Flow Meter: used to measure the flow rate of the fluid being heated and to get the difference between the inlet and outlet temperatures.
Heat Exchange Systems
– Power Meter Sensor: used to measure the electricity consumption of any electric equipment the system might use, like pumps or refrigerant compressors, for example.
– Ultrasonic Flow Meter: used to measure the flow rate of the fluid used to exchange heat and the difference between the inlet and outlet temperatures of it. It can also be used to measure the consumption of liquid fuels the system might use.
The proposed set-up will measure the electricity consumption and the difference between the inlet and outlet temperatures of each piece of equipment. Correlating the acquired data, we find the efficiency of each piece of equipment, and by constantly monitoring it, we can identify improvement opportunities and anticipate possible failures before they happen.
A system specifically designed for your application will bring even more benefits and help your company be more productive, green, and successful.
