FLUX USM technology is based on solid-state ultrasonic sensors without moving parts, eliminating the precision drift typical of mechanical meters and ensuring metrological stability over time without the need to replace worn components. The system integrates temperature and pressure sensors for volume conversion, allowing high-precision measurements under defined conditions for gas billing.
FLUX USM meters integrate advanced smart supervision functions, bidirectional remote communication and data management. The system offers continuous monitoring of operating conditions, automatic recording and archiving of consumption data, as well as the possibility of remote device control. The modular architecture allows flexibility in communications and integration with different network infrastructures, supporting utilities in complete field asset management.
The FLUX USM C&I line is available in G10, G16 and G25 sizes, with flow rates from 16 to 40 m³/h and connections from 1¼” to 2½”, offering scalable solutions for different commercial and industrial user needs.
FLUX USM meters represent the ideal solution for utilities that want to transform their traditional distribution network into a modern smart network, ensuring precision, reliability and preparation for future energy challenges.
