Flow Meters

"If you can not measure it, you can not improve it", Lord Kelvin 1883.

Quite simply, if you want to save energy you have to be able to measure it!

Knowing exactly how much air you are using reveals a number of important factors

It allows you to allocate compressed air costs to a specific production area or product range.
Leakage rate can be quantified and monitored
Maintenance can be targeted to specific areas where leakage rate has increased.
Compressor efficiency can be accurately measured. Air delivery can be compared directly to the power consumption. On a number of occasions, and especially on older equipment, we have discovered that either the compressor consumes significantly more power than expected to produce low volumes of air or it's 15% down on maximum delivery. You would never know if you just measured the power.
It allows you to measure justify and quantify the effect of any energy reducing initiatives you may implement.
Over pressurisation can be identified and measures taken to reduce it

We feel that VP Instruments offers the best quality and range of flow meters available.

With just one VPFlowScope® Probe you can measure flow, pressure & temperature. So, you only need to install one connection in the pipe work. Should you run a 24hr operation our hot tap kit makes it easy.

Should you wish to just measure flow then their VPFlow Probe is ideal and for smaller pipe sizes an VPFlowMate® Inline is an excellent alternative.

The ultimate solution is to continuously measure the air consumption in up to 12 locations and correlate and display energy costs through VPVision.
