Fuel consumption measurement for diesel engines
Generators establish the guaranteed, specific fuel
consumption during the warranty period. If fuel consumption is too high,
this always indicates that the engine is badly adjusted or needs
maintenance.
High system accuracy.
If a measured value is calculated from a number of individual measured
values, this increases the error of the overall measurement in
accordance with the Gaussian law of error propagation.
With a high measurement accuracy of 0.1%, KRAL flowmeters achieve
optimum system accuracy both for idling and at full load.
Multi-engine systems.
Power stations often have several engines. To keep the overall fuel
consumption under control, operators want their fuel consumption
measuring system to measure many engines. KRAL electronics BEM 900 can
clearly show the consumption of as many as 16 engines on a single
display.
