Water & Thermal Energy
Precise measurement of water and thermal energy (BTU) consumption is essential for chilled water systems, hot water distribution, district energy, and hydronic HVAC systems.
Pulse output integration via the utility company. Most accurate measurement since pulses originate from the utility meter. The utility owns and manages calibration, maintenance, and replacement.
Measure the thermal energy delivered or extracted by a fluid — chilled water, hot water, or steam condensate. Combine flow with supply/return temperature differential to compute energy transfer in BTUs or kWh.
Ultrasonic Flow Meters
Sensors clamp onto the outside of the pipe — ideal for retrofits, no process shutdown, and well suited for water, HVAC, and low-pressure gas.
Installed directly within the pipeline for maximum accuracy in high-precision industrial processes, compressed air, and high-pressure gas.
Key Applications
For utility meters, Emergent coordinates pulse output requests and installs bridge hardware. For new BTU or ultrasonic meters, we assess pipe configuration, supply and install the appropriate meter, and connect to the Panoramic Power platform or your existing BMS via MODBUS or BACnet.
We'll evaluate your hydronic and water systems and deliver the right BTU and flow metering strategy.
