Industrial Flow Meters: When is Accuracy Important

March 10, 2009 - Industrial Flow Meters: When is Accuracy Important?

Please follow the above link for access to the slides presented in the webinar.

In this challenging economy, process industry plants are looking for ways to cut costs and maintain profits. Understanding flow levels in critical plant components and delivery systems can have a significant impact on the operating margin.

National Institute of Standards (NIST) traceable calibration of flow meters adds to the expense and the delivery time for a meter, so why is it done? Which meters deserve the extra time and effort associated with calibration? How does the answer to these questions vary by industry?

Alden, Fluidic Techniques, Southern Company, and Air Liquide discussed these issues in this free one hour web panel discussion.

Agenda:

• Introduction
• Flow meter types and when to calibrate (Richard Wakeland)
• How calibration and accuracy affect the power industry (W. Cary Campbell)
• Process industry perspective:  A case study on steam delivery (Zach Hennig)
• How calibration works (Phil Stacy)
• Questions
