Building Automation Solutions for Medical Facilities

Control Associates has accurate, reliable flow measurement solutions to support your efforts towards more energy efficient buildings and facilities.

Selecting the right solution has a big impact on your energy efficiency and bottom line. The Flexim FLUXUS® F532TE Thermal Energy Non-Intrusive Flow Meter is a smart answer.

Accurate Measurement = Accurate Billing

If you’re experiencing inaccurate thermal energy measurements due to drift or are unable to meter low velocities, your energy billing will be off, and it is costing you money. 

Flexim FLUXUS F532TE Meters are drift-free and perform in extremely high turndown ranges so you can get accurate measurements for low flow rates. Accurate measurements allow you to confirm accurate billing.

Non-Intrusive = No Process Interruptions

Maintenance-free, non-intrusive meters keep you up and running. Our clamp-on design eliminates the need to interrupt your process for calibration or turbine/wheel cleaning as with inline meters.

The FLUXUS F532TE has permanent coupling pads (no grease) requiring zero maintenance.

A More Accurate Thermal Energy Measurement Will Save You Money

A large medical complex experienced these great savings using FLUXUS F532TE Meters

The Cost of Meter Errors

DATA INPUTS
Chilled water energy cost = $11.00 Ton/Day
Average temperature difference = 10°F
 

BTU FORMULA
BTU/HR = GPM (flow) x °F (delta temp) x 500
 

METER ERROR AT MEDICAL COMPLEX
Flow off by -148 GPM (-15%) 10” pipe

ENERGY LOSS CALCULATION
148 x 10 x 500 = 740,000 BTU/Hr = 61.66 Tons
 

MONTHLY COST SAVINGS PER METER
61.66 x $11.00 = $678/Day = $21,000

Typical Cost of ERROR for ONE Metering Point
$21,000/Month | $252,000/Year
