Energy monitoring challenge

John Pointon & Sons, the UK's largest rendering and recycling facility, faced metering challenges due to the corrosive site environment. Failed energy monitoring I/O modules led to poor data collection and downtime. Inadequate software hindered effective data utilization and energy-saving identification.

Endress+Hauser solution

Endress+Hauser was brought in to carry out an energy efficiency assessment and supply a complete energy monitoring solution. As well as supplying T-mass, Prowirl, Promag and Promass flowmeters to monitor gas, water, steam and tallow (animal fat), Endress+Hauser installed a WirelessHART data collection system.
