New Clark Energy Monitoring Systems Ideal For Solar, Submetering, Energy Transfer Systems

April 22, 2011 - PRLog -- Hudson, MA – Clark Solutions announces the introduction of the Model DN-EM BTU/Energy Monitor. The Model DN-EM BTU/Energy Monitor is designed to measure the thermal energy flow rate and totalized energy consumption in water and water/glycol based heating and cooling applications including HVAC, office buildings, large condominium or apartment developments, solar thermal heating, and geothermal systems. Designed to make it easy to account for energy usage and accurately allocate costs to end users the DN-EM BTU/Energy Monitor is an economical energy flow monitor that calculates the energy passing through a system based on the difference in temperature between a supply and return line, and the mass volume of fluid passing through the system.  The volume of fluid is measured by means of a pulse generating Clark vortex flow transmitter.  An RTD sensor built into the flowmeter measures temperature at the meter and the remote temperature is measured by means of a precision RTD sensor mounted in a pipe tee.

Model DN-EM BTU/Energy Monitors generate a scaled pulse output which can be configured to report flow rate or energy total. Modbus 485 communications provides an interface with a building automation or monitoring system. DN-EM BTU/Energy Monitors require no special software to set desired communication parameters, which can be configured at the factory, from the user’s Modbus Master, or via stand-alone commissioning from a PC serial port. Free PC-based stand-alone commissioning software is available for download from our website, www.clarksol.com.  Model DN-EM BTU/Energy Monitors also feature non-volatile memory that records flow and energy, and reports current values.

Clark Solutions has a fifty-year history of providing unique solutions to the measurement, control, and monitoring of pressure, flow, force, and level in liquids and gases.  Located in Hudson, Massachusetts, the company offers instrumentation devices to record, monitor, and control flow, velocity, pressure, temperature, humidity, level, gas concentration, and other properties.  Clark Solutions also provides a wide range of pumps for liquids, gases, and air, including diaphragm pumps, piston pumps, rotary vane pumps, gear pumps, peristaltic pumps, impeller pumps, centrifugal pumps, and bellows pumps.  Valve offerings include inert isolation valves, solenoid operated valves, valve actuators, pinch valves, manifold valves, ball valves, globe valves, butterfly valves, needle valves, and miniature and subminiature valves.
