We are happy to announce that Linc Energy Systems is now an authorized distributor for BelGas Regulator, a division of Marsh Bellofram.
The EC 350 was introduced in 2015 as Honeywell Mercury's newest gas volume corrector (ECV) designed to optimize and simplify custody transfer and industrial natural gas measurement. During that introduction, Honeywell published an eBook titled "Six Reasons to Adopt Honeywell's EC 350 Electronic Volume Corrector." In this post, I will paraphrase the reasons, and suggest another reason, the EC 350's predecessor, the Mini-Max, will not be manufactured after June 1, 2019.
GAZOMAT has released the second generation GAZOSCAN remote methane laser detector, offering new upgrades, improvements and the reason GAZOSCAN is becoming the one to watch.
Recently we announced that Linc Energy Systems now represents Gentherm GPT Thermoelectric generators; here is an application for these remote power sources.
The young year of 2019 has been a year of transition and change. I am sad to announce that another industry comrade and very dear friend to me and my company, passed on January 14.
With the new year, my company enters its 29th year in business, and I'm reminded of the passing of Mr. Dick Hannan, formerly of Mercury Instruments, who had a significant influence on my life and my company.
While smelling natural gas is the first warning that there is a gas leak, it is not foolproof. Here are reasons you may NOT smell the odorant in gas during a gas leak.
What is the difference between underground tracer wire, TW/THW electrical wire tracer, and THHN building wire? Moreover, can THHN wire be used as locating wire?
Linc Energy Systems is now a distributor for Footage Tools, the manufacturer of Big Shot pneumatic piercing tools, manual and hydraulic squeeze-off tools and PE pipe pullers.

In wrapping up our series on natural gas flow meters, there is one last meter-type worthy of mention, the rotameter. The rotameter is a traditional gas technology and may be used as an industrial flow meter to measure the volumetric flow rate of fluids in a closed tube. It is a variable area meter and provides a simple, precise, and inexpensive indication of flow rates.
What are the common water meter types? Water metering is the measurement of water consumption and performed in residential, commercial, and industrial applications. Linc Energy Systems is a distributor for Carlon Meter; offering residential water meters and industrial water flow meters.
Linc Energy Systems is now a distributor for the Itron OpenWay Riva Intelis residential ultrasonic gas meter. The Intelis revolutionary design shifts the gas distribution network from being a one-way gas delivery mechanism to an interactive energy network that delivers gas more safely and efficiently.

Continuing our series on gas flow meter types, here we discuss differential pressure flow meters (DP meter), which are inferential meters and include the orifice plate, Pitot tube, Venturi meter, and V-Cone meters.
Continuing our series on gas flow meters, earlier we discussed turbine meters and ultrasonic meters as velocity-type flow meters that measure natural gas. One last meter in this classification worthy of mentioning is vortex flow meters.
Continuing our series on gas flow meters, in part two of velocity flow meters we discuss the advantages and disadvantages of ultrasonic flowmeters. As a refresher, three velocity type meters measure natural gas; they are turbine meters, ultrasonic meters, and vortex meters.

There are three velocity meter types that measure natural gas, they are turbine meters, ultrasonic meters, and vortex meters. This article discusses turbine flow meters, and subsequent blogs will discuss the advantages and disadvantages of the other velocity meters.
Honeywell Mercury Instruments alerted its North American Channel Partners that the mobile network providers are sunsetting 2G/3G CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access) devices soon. While the shutdown dates vary depending on the carrier, it is time to assess your equipment and determine if new modems or instruments will be needed for your natural gas smart metering programs.
