Are High Utility Costs Hurting Your
Bottom Line?
How much energy could you save?
$$$
The biggest issue is the
surging cost of energy,
which now makes up
30% of operating
costs for the average
company.

Slide 14

The amount of pressure lost is a function of 3 factors:
density of the fluid (
f
),
velocity of the fluid (V
f
)
the amount obstruction (K
meter
) created by the flowmeter




Sometimes Less is More When It
Comes to PPL
Note: The K
meter
factor for a technology is dependent on the model selected.
The following is a guideline for K
