Flow Meter Application: The GM Series Meter monitors flowrate of fuel usage in two diesel powered boilers. The steam produced is used in the facility. The meter records totals and flowrate on the local display then transmits a 4-20 mA signal to the PLC allowing for greater monitoring and control throughout the facility. Flow Meter [...]

Company Type: Metro Airport Market: Transportation Equipment Application Category: Inventory Management GPI Flow Meters Used: G2S20N09GMB with 113275-1 Problem: The expensive deicing mixture was being wasted causing expenses to increase. Monitoring usage by individual treatment was required. Accurate billing receipts were important.

Company Type: Drinking Water Utility Market: Water Supply Application Category: Monitoring GPI Flow Meters Used: G2P05N09GMA Problem: Opening the pipe to measure sample flow rate could expose technicians to toxic levels of ozone. Leaving valves wide open wastes large volumes of water. If the flowrate is to low or too high analyzer readings are not accurate.

Company Type: Medical Device Manufacturing Market: Pharmaceuticals Application Category: Batching GPI Flow Meters Used: GNT-051 with GX500   Problem: The manufacturing process required accurate measurement of two materials into a single batch. Two lines supply materials that are batched into a blend tank.

Company Type: Meat Packer Market: Food Application Category: Batching/Dispensing GPI Flow Meters Used: G2S07N09GMA   Problem: Portable cleaning solution carts need to be loaded with caustic and acidic cleaning agents. These agents vary in density and pH. Both batch and continuous total are required when loading the carts with solutions.

Company Type: Municipality Market: Water Supply/Irrigation Application Category: Monitoring GPI Flow Meters Used: G2S10N09GMA   Problem: Homeowners and businesses need to verify flowrate of water supply and accuracy of city equipment from main water line to individual properties. Other methods of verification can be inconvenient,time consuming and costly.

Company Type: Filling Machine Manufacturer Market: Food, Beverage, Tobacco Application Category: Batching GPI Flow Meters Used: GSCPS-150; GSCPS-100   Problem: Accurately measure fluid into containers at a reasonable cost while maintaining 3A sanitary requirements with a meter that can withstand repeated stop/start batching flows.

Company Type: Cooling Tower Manufacturer Market: Fabrication Metal Products Application Category: Monitoring GPI Flow Meters Used: A109GMN100NA1 113265-1 Remote Kit   Problem: Companies need to adjust flowrate to maintain a constant temperature of cooling water used for various processes. Unstable or fluctuating chill water temperatures can cause quality problems or possibly even damage to expensive [...]

Company Type: Concrete Contractor/Equipment Market: Stone/Clay/Cement Application Category: Monitoring GPI Flow Meters Used: 01N31GM and A109GMN100NA1   Problem: Drivers need to add water on site to bring the mix to suitable slump rating. The amount of add water is very subjective and is not monitored. This results in variances in batches and quality of product.
