Breaking Technical News!


In Britian,
After having dug to a depth of 10 feet last year, British scientists found traces of copper wire dating back 200 years and came to the conclusion that their ancestors already had a telephone network more than 150 years ago.

In America,
Not to be outdone by the Brit's, in the weeks that followed, an American archaeologist dug to a depth of 20 feet, and shortly after, a story published in the New York Times:"American archaeologists, finding traces of 250-year-old copper wire, have concluded that their ancestors already had an advanced high-tech communications network 50 years earlier than the British".

In Canada,
One week later, Canadian Dept of Mines and Resources in Northern Canada reported the following:"After digging as deep as 30 feet in Northern Canada in the Ontario region of Thunder Bay Jack Lucknow, a self-taught archaeologist, reported that he found absolutely nothing. Jack has therefore concluded that 250 years ago, Canada had already gone wireless."

Just makes you bloody proud to be Canadian, don't it!

Flexim Clamp-On Ultra-Sonic Thermal Energy Meter

One of our Flag ship Products Flexim Clamp-On Ultra-Sonic flow meters recently printed the below in their latest news letter.

If you would more information call my cell phone 905-464-2605
The attached link is for the Energy Meter Brochure.

Featured Application: Thermal Energy Meter
Low Flow Capabilities used to recover Lost Energy!
Energy Recovery Initiative: The Engineering
and Utilities Department at Harvard University is
always at the forefront of energy reduction and
recovery. The university demands excellence from
their students and in turn exhibits excellence in
their facility operations. Harvard University is
launching a new energy program. It enables endusers
to view the amount of energy that they are
using. In joining the global effort to decrease
energy consumption, go green, and accurately
increase energy efficiency, Harvard Engineering and
Utilities has selected Flexim to upgrade the Thermal
Energy Meters.
Chilled Water: The Engineering and Utilities Department
operates a 13,000 Ton central plant and a 7,500 Ton
satellite plant. Both plants provide chilled water and
process cooling to 75 buildings located in the vicinity of
the Cambridge campus. Over 5 million square feet of
building and lab space must be cooled. The plant must be
able to accurately track the amount of Energy in Tons for
efficiency and billing purposes. During off-peak
conditions, some buildings may use very little thermal
energy which requires very low flow rates and small
temperature differentials. The previous metering solution
was incapable of measuring these low flow rates which
averaged 0.028 feet/second at some locations.
Go Green, Go Flexim! The Harvard-Flexim Thermal
Energy Project was a complete turnkey installation. A
total of 60 Thermal Energy meters were replaced in a
matter of six weeks. There were no costly shutdowns or
interruptions with the Chilled Water Utilities. The new
meters are capable of measuring extremely low flow
velocities as low as 0.028 feet/second, communicating
via MODBUS or dial-up modem networks, and are
completely non-intrusive. Engineering and Utilities at
Harvard University is now better equipped to measure
their Thermal Energy usage and tackle their next energy concerns. Harvard and Flexim
are going green, are you?

  1. It is the best time to make a few plans for the future and it is time to be happy. I have learn this post and if I may just I desire to counsel you some interesting things or advice. Maybe you can write next articles referring to this article. I desire to read more things about it!BTU Meters.
