UeSystems is having its 6th Ultrasound World conference in May this year. Ultrasound World is the leading international conference for predictive maintenance technology.

Ultrasound World offers essential tactics and techniques to maximize the return on investment through ultrasound devices. It is a week full of presentations, workshops, classes and networking.

Our Sales en Marketing director, Cynthia Kuiper, is presenting at the conference. She will give a presentation about the essential combination of mass flow meters and leak detectors for compressed air savings.

Approximately 25% in the compressed air is wasted by leakage. Repairing leaks is the easiest and most beneficial way to realize dramatic compressed air savings. To detect the overall leakage in a factory and to quantify the amount of savings, mass flow meters provide a great tool. Combined with Ultrasonic leak detectors, they form the perfect team for a continuous leakage management program around the factory.

Presentation: Mass flow meters and leak detectors

The flow measurement equipment of VPInstruments was used by Air Energy Management in a big air audit for the factory Astrum that produces military vehicle castings. With help of the flow meters, Air Energy Management was able to locate savings measures and a huge savings potential.

Astrum used the Carbon Trust to fund the savings measures. The Carbon Trust is an interest free loan by the English government for small and medium companies in the UK to improve the energy efficiency. Astrum is receiving the biggest loan to date of £400.000! The loan paid e.g. for low pressure drop piping, variable speed compressors and a leak-detection management equipment. They purchased VPVision and several VPFlowScope flow meters for their compressed air monitoring and leakage management. The entire project will be cost neutral in only four years; an easy decision for Astrum!

VPInstruments offers insight in compressed air savings. Our equipment is used world wide in projects like Astrum’s, to reveal savings.

Check out how easy it is to install and configure our VPFlowScope. The VPFlowScope instruction video is posted on You Tube. Go to: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=26c3NuAU6GE

With VPCalculator, selecting your flow meter is quick and easy. Just enter the pipe diameter and the expected flow rate, and VPCalculator will suggest the right model for you.

You can also use the built-in unit converter, to convert flow, pressure or temperature from SI to Imperial units and back. And VPCalculator can show pressure loss as a function of pipe diameter and flow rate! So it's a great cost saving tool too.
