First, chilled water systems absorb heat energy from within the building or process to maintain a consistent temperature.The heated water is then passed to the condenser water system, which removes the heat and rejects it into the atmosphere through the cooling tower.
Because condenser water systems often include a water-side economizeror a variable-flow-primary chilled and heating water systemmeasuring these fluctuating flow rates is important to ensure proper operation of the HVAC equipment. If facilities managers cannot monitor system function or efficiency, they risk critical malfunction or complete system failure. When facilities managers invest in flow meters that provide accurate measurements, they can ensure their condenser water system is operating at peak performance. This helps ensure the cooling towers are maintaining their efficiency and the equipment is not overworked. Below are a few of the most common technology types used in condenser water applications. Ultrasonic flow meterslike our Dynasonics TFX-5000 ultrasonic clamp-on flow meter can sample the flow 40 times per second to provide accurate flow, temperature and energy measurements when paired with accompanying sensors to maintain optimal system function. Our ModMAG M-Series M2000 Electromagnetic flow meter is a popular selection because of its advanced, user-friendly design. ![]() This meter is full bore, has no moving parts or pressure drops across the meter and has one of the widest measurement ranges in the industry of 400:1. Its designed to provide granular data within control operations. Simply pair the FC-5000 with a flow meter input and two temperatures (supply and return) to receive BTU usage calculations, showing how resources are being used within your application. We encourage you to learn more about our hydronic system flow measurement solutions and then contact our product experts to discuss a tailored solution for your application needs.
