The Siemens Industry Automation Division has developed an all-inclusive kit for checking the performance and accuracy of any type and brand of energy meter in heating, ventilation and air conditioning applications.

The kit contains the clamp-on ultrasonic flowmeter Sitrans FUE1010 along with transducers, 1000 Ohm platinum resistance temperature detectors (RTD’s), cables, etc. required for measurement of district energy cooling and chilled water applications as well as power plants.

Chiller efficiency analysis and surveys on non-metered installations can also be performed and be logged.

The 2-channel flowmeter is built up for measurement on one or two pipes, enabling measurement on supply as well as return pipes with the use of only one meter.

The 1 hour quick charge battery pack allows four hours of normal operation, ensuring facilitated field use and portability.
