Problem
Textile industry is complex in nature.
- Air jet Looms & Winding Machines are major consumers.
- Negligence in machine specification selection- uncertain compressed air demand
- In Composite textiles – Synchronization is a big challenge for high & low pressure.
- Existing Vortex & Orifice flowmeters unable to record low flowrate consumption.
- Have high pressure drop upto 3 psig which creates an energy loss.
- Unable to identify compressed air leakage in various departments.
Solution
Leomi – 586 Insertion Thermal Mass flowmeter
- Doesn’t require shutdown for installation
- High turndown down ratio of 100:1
- No pressure drop against existing flow meter installed saves energy cost
- Allows leakage detection with better accuracy
- No maintenance than the existing flow meter used.
Application
Compressed air consumption monitoring and recording in air jet Looms & Winding machines.
