SteaMon™
Steam metering is an important aspect of any steam system as it can highlight inefficienies in the overall steam system. Having steam meters installed can also bring to notice malfunctionining which increases the steam consumption and is otherwise difficult to trace.
SteaMon™ is a sophisticated vortex type flowmeter from Forbes Marshall, with integrated temperature compensation in a 2-wire technology.This temperature and density compensated flowmeter works on the principle of vortices generation and has a high turndown ratio.
The meters coupled with the data analysis and trending software acts as a powerful tool and ensure a complete and continuous control on steam generation and utilisation centrally and block wise for 24hrs a day and 365 days a year.
- 2-wire device with integrated temperature compensation
- Wear resistant, fully welded stainless-steel vortex shedding structure with high corrosion, pressure and temperature resistance.
- Maintenance free sensor design Sensor placed behind the fully welded bluff body.
- No damage to the sensor due to passing.
- No possibility of damage and deposits on pick-up
- SteaMon helps plant operators to take corrective actions to bring down the steam consumption and address steam leakage issues.
- The temperature compensation technology helps quantify the losses accurately.
- Optimised use of steam and fuel usage leading to energy optimisation.
- Implementation of accurate diagnostics to achieve fuel savings.

Frequently Asked Questions
Steam flow metering ensures precise monitoring and control of steam usage, reducing energy wastage and optimising process efficiency. It provides critical data for improving energy management, helping to identify inefficiencies, maintaining system reliability, and achieving cost savings. Steam flow metering helps track performance, prevent losses, and enhance decision-making for sustainable operations.
Steamon uses advanced sensors and intelligent analytics to monitor steam flow, pressure, and temperature in real-time. It identifies inefficiencies, leaks, and wastage in your steam system, providing actionable insights to optimise steam consumption. This ensures better energy efficiency, reduced fuel costs, and minimal steam losses.
Steamon is designed for seamless integration with most existing steam and energy management systems. It supports industry-standard communication protocols like MODBUS, enabling real-time data sharing with SCADA or ERP systems.
Additionally, it provides remote monitoring capabilities through a secure web or mobile interface, allowing users to track performance from anywhere.
There are several factors to be considered while selecting a steam flow meter for an application.
- Steam Type – Saturated or superheated
- Steam quality
- Pressure and temperature
- Flow rate range
- Accuracy and repeatability
- Purpose – Energy monitoring and / or process control
- Integration and communication
A vortex flow meter is accurate, reliable, and low maintenance, with no moving parts, making it ideal for measuring steam across a wide range of flow rates and operating conditions while being cost-effective and energy efficient.
