IMPROVING OPERATIONAL
EFFICIENCY THROUGH ON-SITE CALIBRATION OF FLOW METERS
By Ulrich Müller, OPTOLUTION Messtechnik GmbH
What if a 1% measurement deviation could affect a utility’s annual energy balance by more than €100,000? Laser-based on-site calibration allows district heating operators to verify large flow meters under real operating conditions - without shutting down the plant. Drawing on more than 240 field calibrations, this article shows how accurate measurement data can strengthen billing, efficiency, optimisation, and operational confidence.
