Fluid handling, flow control & metering
Sagentia has more than 15 years’ experience developing flow control systems and metering technologies for fluids and slurries. We work with clients who wish to optimize and refine industrial processing with intelligent flow control systems. We can help if you are looking for ways to move flow control to a service-based revenue model or are just wanting to automate and control your fluid handling processes. We work on projects designed to improve the detection of leaks or emissions, adding sensors, connected systems and the Internet of Things.
We are often asked to re-engineer meters, pumps, valves or other assets from the ground up as part of product optimization or cost challenge initiatives. We have particular experience in electromagnetic and ultrasonic metering technologies, condition monitoring, asset longevity and predictive maintenance projects. For the connected home, the advent of smart domestic meters and the Internet of Things has demanded extremely low-cost, low-power and accurate sensors combined with hands-on experience of working with the latest communications technologies.
In short, we take on a whole host of fluid handling, metering and flow control challenges using our deep expertise in fluidics, industrial processing, sensors and process control.
