The Spirax Sarco ELectroMagnetic Flowmeter (ELM10) is aimed primarily at boiler feed water and cold make-up water monitoring applications. Its launch means a steam system operator can now source all its steam and condensate loop meters from a single supplier, saving them time and money and ensuring the most suitable meters for the requirements of this specialist fi eld. The ELM10 is also suitable for process applications to identify ways to cut water consumption, and can be used in the wider plant to meter slurry and other conductive liquids such as waste water. The ELM10 can be integrated with Building Management Systems (BMS) or Spirax Sarco’s new B850 Flow Computer to provide accurate data on all aspects of boiler operation. By using ELM10 to meter the energy into the boiler (in the feed water) and compare it with the useful energy leaving the boiler (in the steam) boiler operators can gain a true picture of the actual energy e ciency of their boiler. This enables any drops in boiler performance (for example due to ine cient boiler blow down procedures or degradation of insulation) to be spotted quickly, helping to reduce maintenance costs and minimising downtime. This compact, single component meter is easy to install and cost-eff ective to run. The 10’s smooth internal surfaces allow liquids to fl ow freely, reducing wear on pumps and cutting running costs. The meter can be si ed to installed pipework for fi tting to existing boiler plant. Tel: 01242 521361 Email: [email protected] www.spiraxsarco.com
