Measuring heat and energy consumption is a key area in building services and energy management.
However, installation costs – which cover a system drain down and pipe cutting – have acted as a barrier to wider application of sub-metering in the industry.
The U1000 HM provides installation savings for heat/energy metering
U1000HM has been designed as an affordable solution, developed alongside its U1000 clamp-on flow meter to facilitate the wider use of clamp-on ultrasonic flow measurement for water sub-metering and heat/energy measurement.
Clamp-on design
The clamp-on ultrasonic flow meter is designed to provide accurate measurement of liquid flowing within a closed pipe in addition to the flow and return temperature difference to calculate the heat/energy load.
The U1000HM operates by clamping the unit onto the pipe, selecting its size and releasing the sensor clamps.
It then secures the pre-wired, clamp-on PT100 flow and returns temperature sensors, connecting the power to the pre-wired cable provided.
The clamp-on meter is also Modbus compatible, so it can be used as a standalone meter or an integrated part of an aM&T or BEM’s system.
