Sustainable Business
Flow Meters & Sustainable Business Sustainability is an issue that is frequently discussed in business circles
Aside from the clear environmental involvement from water and energy efficiency, the rising costs of energy bills are forcing business to introduce more sustainable measures
Sustainability however, creates the opportunity for commercial success. Many companies are reporting reduced costs and higher profits since installing efficiency measures
The manufacturing industry often uses vast amounts of water and energy to power the production process
In finding ways to cut water and energy usage, the savings could be substantial
Flow Meters & Sustainable Business Businesses would not invest in sustainability measures if it meant
compromising quality standards, if it made it more difficult to meet regulatory targets or it were disruptive to the overall processes
However, introducing devices to monitor and reduce energy and water usage also has many benefits
A fantastic example of this would be the Ultrasonic Flow Meter
This monitors the flow of water and heat and have been used in a range of industries including pharmaceutical, automotive and waste management
Ultrasonic Flow Meters Ultrasonic Flow Meters read the flow of the specific liquid used in any
industrial process
It then monitors the flow and presents the data on an easy to read screen
Flow Meters can monitor the flow of liquids in areas that aren’t easily viewed, such as less accessible areas of the process and pipework
Through constantly monitoring flow, it is a valuable tool in maintaining optimum levels of water or heat throughout the process
Ultrasonic Flow Meters Ultrasonic Flow Meters can also support the achievement of quality
standards, particularly in processes where accuracy is critical, such as the production of pharmaceuticals
By minimising the risk of a process running dry or over-filling, Ultrasonic Flow Meters are also a preventative measure
They can reduce the risk of faulty batches and damage to machinery, both of which could incur significant costs
Meeting Regulations Due to the real threat of both water and energy shortages, the Government have
introduced a number of initiatives to encourage efficiency measures
These include the ‘carrot’ and ‘stick’ initiatives, showing an increasing number of regulations regarding energy and water use
From the design and build of new facilities and equipment, through to their operation and disposal, businesses are likely to see greater regulations around sustainability
Installing Ultrasonic Flow Meters, whether in new buildings and processes or retro fitting, will help companies to meet current and future regulations
Data produced by the Flow Meter can also be used as evidence of a reduction in water use
Disrupting Processes Ultrasonic Flow Meters can be attached to the exterior of a pipe.
This makes it much more simple to fit them into position without disrupting processes
Permanent Flow Meters can be positioned and left, whilst Portable Flow Meters can be regularly installed and removed to monitor flow during various points in the process
Downtime in a busy manufacturing plant can be very costly. Therefore, the installation of an Ultrasonic Flow Meter will prevent the need to restart the process and will causes minimal disruption
