Fox Thermal Mass Flowmeter Frequently Asked Questions
Fox Thermal Gas Mass Flowmeters are used in a wide variety of application across many industries including light and heavy industrial plants, process heating facilities, up/mid/downstream oil & gas, and water/wastewater treatment plants. Fox Thermal meters measure gas flow rates in mass (Kg/Hr, Lb/Hr) or standardized volumetric units (MSCFD, SCFM) and can measure virtually any gas flow. Many facilities today have one or more combustion processes, such as a boiler, process heater, or flares, in their plants. The adoption of accurate and reliable measurement devices will improve combustion efficiencies, utilities accounting, and regulator reporting.Flow Thermal offers a great FAQ (frequently asked questions) cut sheet.

Fireye NMX2G Intelligent Boiler Load Optimizer
Heating of commercial and institutional buildings presents a case where there are energy savings available through the application of an additional controller able to substantially reduce boiler operation time.
Building owners, boiler engineers, operators and other stakeholders will benefit from this simple and understandable video explanation of some of the inefficiencies associated with boiler operation, and how incorporating a better control method can minimize boiler dry firing (also called standby cycling). Boiler operation costs can be reduced between 10% and 25%, with a commensurate reduction in carbon footprint, by including the Fireye NXM2G control in the boiler control system.
Watch the above video. It's just a few minutes and explains the source of the inefficiency, as well as the solution, in a manner understandable to everyone. More information is available from a combustion product specialist, who can help evaluate the efficiency of your current system or assist with incorporating the latest energy saving features and design into a new installation.

Thermal Dispersion Flow Meters
Thermal dispersion mass flow meters provide an accurate means of mass flow measurement with no moving parts and little or no encroachment on the media flow path. There are a number of different configurations to be found among various manufacturers, but all function in basically the same manner.
Two sensors are exposed to the heat transferring effect of the flowing media. When the media composition is known, the mass flow can be calculated using the meter reading and the pipe cross sectional area. One of the flow meter sensors is heated, the other is allowed to follow the media temperature as a reference. The heat dispersion from the heated sensor is measured and used to calculate mass flow.
Some positive attributes of thermal dispersion flow meters:
- In-line and insertion configurations available to accommodate very small to large pipe sizes
- Rugged Construction
- No moving parts
- Measure liquid or gas in a wide range of applications
- Measurement not adversely impacted by changes in pressure or temperature
- Wide range of process connections
- In-line versions provide unobstructed flow path
- Wide turndown suitable for extended flow range
- Flow rate and totalized flow
- 4-20 mA output interfaces easily with other instruments and equipment
What is Cascade Control?
Cascade control is a technique used to enable processes with long lags to be controlled with the fastest possible response to process disturbances including setpoint changes, whilst still minimizing the potential for overshoot. This is achieved by controlling a secondary, more responsive process that influences the main process. The main process is controlled using a master PID loop, the output of which is used to determine the setpoint of the secondary process which is controlled by a second PID loop. This second loop is referred to as the slave loop.Ideal for:
- Heat treatment furnaces
- Vacuum furnaces
- Autoclaves
- Semiconductor diffusion
- Batch reaction vessels
- Heat exchangers
- Crystal growth
- Distillation columns
