PowTechnology offers you over 30 years’ experience recommending and supplying flow sensors and flow switches. We work with over a hundred quality international manufacturers and we have been the UK distributor for EGE Elektronik for 30 years!

We offer a wide range flow switches and flow sensors, many of which have no moving parts, which means they are robust and resistant to soiling.

The flow sensors suit a range of applications for both for fluids (such as water, glycol mixtures or chemicals) as well as gases (such as air and carbon dioxide). Intrinsically safe sensors based on ATEX for explosive and hazardous areas are also available.

Additional variations consist of high temperature flow sensors up to 160 °C, special flow sensors made from such materials as Hastelloy, Monel, titanium and tantalum with high resistance to chemicals, and programmable flow sensors with digital displays.

This PRODUCT SEARCH tool allows you to find the most appropriate flow sensor to suit your application, with selections for medium (liquid, gas, glycol), power supply, flow rate, supply voltage, output type, connection type, temperature range and ATEX category.

How can PowTechnology help you with sensors for factory automation and process control?

PowTechnology’s Tank Monitoring Software (MetronTMS) is our web-based SMART Inventory Management IIoT data collection platform for customers who deliver or collect gases, liquids, powders or granules from their customers’ tanks in bulk.

Please see our Remote Tank Level Monitoring/Vendor Managed Inventory brochure here.

Please click here for a video walkthrough of our Remote Tank Level Monitoring/Vendor Managed Inventory IIoT solutions.

SMART Inventory Management, also known as Remote Inventory Management, Vendor Managed Inventory and VMI  is the use of remote level monitoring technology to report level of any type of substance (diesel, petrol, home heating oil, kerosene, biofuels, lubricants, coolants, cryogas, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, foodstuffs, animal feed, water, construction additives, AdBlue and waste).

This wireless tank monitoring delivers IIoT level data to significantly reduce bulk distribution costs, because efficient logistics can be planned. The vendor manages the inventory. No wasted journeys, panic deliveries/collections or part load returns.

Service and supply contracts can be won by offering enhanced service levels to end-user, helping them eliminate run-outs and overspills. MetronTMS can be badged to appear as the customers’ own platform.

Thresholds can be configured for individual tanks to alert customers when tanks are reaching amber and red alert low or high levels and even predict when individual tanks will need filling/emptying, based on recent usage. Users can be set up within a hierarchy.

Theft and leakage alerts can also be set up.

Tanks can be plotted on a map, by colour code and postcode to enable efficient logistics planning.

Data may be used to verify delivery dates and quantities for invoice reconciliation and to identify unauthorised deliveries or collections from competitors.

Furthermore, PowTechnology’s remote tank level systems generate digital transformation benefits across the whole business … in sales, production, operations, maintenance and finance as well as logistics.

How can PowTechnology’s Metron TMS Tank Monitoring Software portal help with your bulk distribution or collection?

PowTechnology have concentrated over 30 years’ experience into creating our highly scalable MetronView platform, enabling customers to get data flowing rapidly as a first step towards their digital transformation and supporting them through to an international estate of connected assets.

*An interoperable API allows integration to software like Navision, SAP, SCADA and platforms like IBM Watson, Microsoft Azure, AWS and Miimetiq. It also allows PowTechnology and their customers to develop application specific portals, such as our MetronTMS bespoke software for bulk delivery and collection applications.

What can PowTechnology’s MetronView cloud do for you?

PowTechnology have been at the cutting edge of ‘connected sensor’ technology for over 30 years, resulting in the class-leading Metron range of GSM/GPRS M2M devices to interface with sensors, take periodic readings and transmit them over mobile phone networks.

Metron4 is 4G enabled, in preparation for the 2G sunset, which is rapidly approaching.

Metron devices report to PowTechnology’s MetronView platform, so our customers can simply connect their sensors & power and log into our secure web portal to see their remote monitoring readings online immediately.

Metron4 is highly scalable … start simply … get some data from your sensors … perhaps perform some simple calculations … and then expand…. up to an international estate of connected assets!

• Supporting 2G and 4G (CatM1 & NB1)
• Compatible with 1000s of sensors
• Remotely configurable via Metronview
• ‘Plug and Play’ for instant data
• Self-contained and weatherproof
• Solar, battery and external power options

• Proven globally across thousands of installations
• Customers can badge units to appear as their own.

Metron4 offers enormous flexibility to add functionality for specific, customer-driven remote monitoring and condition monitoring applications.

In addition to 4 analogue inputs (4-20mA), there are expansion cards for pulse counting (5 channels) and RS232 and options to develop RS485 and CANBUS interfaces.

All units have an integral display, which helps with setup and test, as well as replacing costly local gauges.

A multiplexer/MUX board allows 8 digital inputs into each of the 4 channels…ideal for applications requiring a combination of digital and analogue signals into a single device and cloud, such as condition monitoring.
