Flow Meters for the Power Generation Industry

Flow Measurement for the life of your facility

As any plant manager, engineer, or shutdown turnaround coordinator is aware, flow data is only as good as the flow meter that provides it. When accuracy and repeatability are critical, McCrometer’s flow meters deliver top tier data. Our suite of differential pressure, propeller, and electromagnetic flow meters provide the flow data your need to make informed decisions about your power plant operations – whether it’s for cooling water, steam, fuel, or effluent flow measurement. Backed by a team of experts, we’ve engineered valuable solutions for your power generation applications that help save you time and money – and allow you to meet and exceed project goals.

How to select a flow meter for maximum uptime

Can you install, uninstall, or perform maintenance on your critical flow meter while your process is running?

Choosing a hot-tappable flow meter ensures that you won’t need to wait for scheduled shutdowns to install your meter or perform maintenance. This is especially beneficial for retrofit applications where a previous meter has failed and the plant cannot waste time or money by shutting down a critical operation to cut pipe, weld flanges, and install a new measurement device.

Does your meter selection allow you 25+ years of accurate, repeatable measurement?

The most efficient (and cost-effective!) flow meter is one that provides accuracy and repeatable flow data for the lifetime of your facility. By choosing a flow meter that provides that level of performance, you’re investing in a decades-long measurement device that pays for itself over the duration of its lifespan.

Can you afford to install a DP meter that requires lengthy straight-run pipe?

If your orifice plate, Venturi, or other differential pressure flow meter is requiring you to provide 20 diameters of upstream pipeline free of flow disturbers, you’re likely losing out on valuable plant real estate as well as project budget. Our V-Cone® DP meter such as the V-Cone saves you space and budget as it requires minimal (if not zero!) straight-run due to its self-conditioning design with a 25-year design operational life span.
