Product Description
The Siemens FUE1010 dual channel clamp-on check metering kit is an all inclusive HVAC chilled water kit developed especially for verifying the accuracy and performance of any brand or type of flowmeter. It is perfect for areas where no metering exists, and ideal for balancing building performance. It accurately computes flow over an extremely wide range and measures practically all conductive or non-conductive clean or moderately aerated liquids or liquids with suspended solids.
The SITRANS FUE1010 check meter kit is a highly accurate clamp-on non-intrusive ultrasonic flow display computer for revenue grade thermal energy sub-metering and energy efficiency distribution monitoring, with a real time coefficient of performance (COP) for HVAC systems.
Benefits
- Dual Channel is allows measurement on one or two pipes, enabling measurement on supply as well as return pipes with the use of only one meter
- Dual mode allows for Transit Time and Reflexor (Doppler) operations at the same time on the same pipe if required
- Measures energy rate and total consumption with highest accuracy available
- Accurately measures at both low flow rates and low differential temperatures
- Field use is facilitated by meter portability and 1 hour quick charge for 4 hours of normal operation
- 1 MByte datalogger capability downloadable to PC via included RS232 cable
- Comes in a sturdy rolling case with a telescope handle that holds all the equipment needed to conduct performance and verification tests
- Can also be used for general flow measurement for applications in Process, Chemicals, Power, Oil & Gas, and Water & Wastewater Industries
Function
- Integral 33 button keypad and large (128 x 240 pixel) graphic LCD visible up to 12m away
- 4-wire 1000 ohm platinum RTD's for supply and return temperature measurements are precision matched to within 0.01 °C
- Chiller efficiency analysis accepts an independent analog input representing kW usage for calculation of Cooling load (kW/ton), Coefficient of performance (COP), or Energy efficiency ratio (EER), which can be selected for data logging or output purposes:
- Temperature is factory calibrated with built-in field calibrator
- Built-in energy/BTU mode
- Detection of aeration and cavitation caused by worn or damaged impellers, misaligned shafts, etc.
- Zeromatic Path automatically sets zero
- Bi-directional flow operation
- 1 MegaByte data logger with both site and data logger storage

Competitive Technology
Siemens Controlotron’s Clamp-On Transit-Time Ultrasonic Flowmeters have been field installed in critical applications globally since the early 1970’s. Experience, reliability, and innovative use of technology set our products apart. Patented Wide-Beam™ Transit-Time and Reflexor™ technologies assure accurate reading even in difficult applications. Siemens Controlotron flowmeters provides
- Accurate flow measurement regardless of liquid type or temperature
- Operation with up to 50% aeration and indication of aeration presence
- Resistance to Aberrated Flow Profile and Crossflow errors
- Full installation without cutting pipeline or stopping flow
- Sonic identification of product type and quality
- Excellent cost efficiency
Advantages
The differences between Siemens Controlotron and other competitive ultrasonic instruments are substantial, one reason being the large number of Patents owned, provides the following advantages:
- Matches transducer frequency to pipe, transforms pipe into sensor
- Low Voltage (+/- 15V) vs. 300+V in others
- Application Diagnostics & Tolerance – senses pipe build-up, up to 50% aeration in liquids
- Pico-seconds time resolution – allows measurement of lower flows and smaller pipes
- No Pressure Drop or Energy Loss (non-intrusive)
