When to Use Static Thermal Meters Instead?

For large-scale commercial, industrial, and institutional applications, QMC offers Static Thermal Meters, which are designed for high-flow systems, such as large buildings, hospitals, and universities. Static thermal meters are optimized for long-term metering within district energy entworks, and are ideal for measuring large volumes with maximum accuracy.
