DG Flow Meter

DG Flow Meter

Product Overview

The VSAN DG Flow Meter is a high-precision fuel monitoring solution specifically designed to measure the fuel consumption of Diesel Generator (DG) sets. It enables accurate monitoring of diesel usage, helping industries optimize fuel efficiency, reduce operational costs, prevent fuel pilferage, and improve overall generator performance.

The system continuously measures the quantity of diesel supplied to the generator engine and accurately calculates the actual fuel consumed during operation. By providing real-time fuel consumption data, the VSAN DG Flow Meter assists plant operators in monitoring generator efficiency, scheduling maintenance, and maintaining accurate fuel inventory records.

Designed for continuous industrial operation, the VSAN DG Flow Meter features a rugged construction suitable for harsh environments. It is compatible with generators of various capacities and can be installed on both new and existing DG sets with minimal modifications.

The flow meter is available with a digital flow indicator capable of displaying instantaneous flow rate, cumulative fuel consumption, batch total, and operating status. It supports industrial communication protocols such as 4–20 mA Analog Output, Pulse Output, RS485 Modbus RTU, and optional GSM/4G remote monitoring, enabling seamless integration with PLC, SCADA, Building Management Systems (BMS), and IoT-based fuel management platforms.

Manufactured using corrosion-resistant materials with high-quality wetted components, the VSAN DG Flow Meter is suitable for measuring diesel, biodiesel, furnace oil, light fuel oil, and other petroleum-based fuels. The system offers high measurement accuracy, excellent repeatability, low maintenance, and long-term reliability, making it an ideal solution for industrial power backup systems.

The VSAN DG Flow Meter is widely used in Manufacturing Industries, Hospitals, Data Centers, Commercial Buildings, Telecom Towers, Power Plants, Hotels, Educational Institutions, Airports, and Government Facilities, where continuous monitoring of diesel consumption is critical.

Working Principle

The VSAN DG Flow Meter operates by continuously measuring the flow of diesel supplied to the generator engine.

As diesel flows through the flow meter, the internal measuring mechanism accurately records the volume of fuel passing through the system. The sensor converts the measured flow into electrical signals, which are processed by the digital transmitter.

The transmitter calculates and displays the instantaneous fuel flow rate, total fuel consumption, and cumulative operating data. For DG sets equipped with a fuel return line, an optional dual-flow meter system can be installed to measure both the supply and return fuel. The controller automatically subtracts the returned fuel from the supplied fuel, providing the actual fuel consumed by the engine with high accuracy.

The measured data can also be transmitted to PLC, SCADA, or remote monitoring systems for real-time fuel management, reporting, and preventive maintenance planning.
