Commercial, hospitality, institutional, research and manufacturing managers need to monitor flows across the facilities and processes they serve. Spire’s EF10 ultrasonic meter is the economical, easy to install solution for accurate flow of a wide variety of fluids. Fuel oil, coolant, or other non conductive, harsh fluids are not a problem for our non intrusive, transit time technology. Clamp on ultrasonic flow transducers install without breaking pipes or interrupting service- ready to go to work the day you receive. Utility management and billing, simplified.
