Kenda supplies Iggesund metering equipment
The Tariff Metering System
for the CHP plant at Iggesund Paperboard was designed, manufactured and
commissioned by Southampton-based Kenda Electronic
Systems Ltd, whose metering data-collection equipment
has previously been supplied to all of the major power companies in the UK and
to the National Grid Company as part of the Final Metering Scheme.
Based on Kenda's successful Meteor range of equipment, the Iggesund system
comprises a metering cubicle, the metering itself, data collectors, and the
associated control-room computer equipment and software.
The Meteor data collectors calculate and store scaled values
for each input integrated over the specified demand period (normally 30 minutes).
Two data collectors are used for electricity and non-electricity pulse inputs;
the latter including steam flow, condensate, demineralised water, distillate and gas
meters.
A modem link allows for remote interrogation of the data collectors, while a
central collector station is used for
local information within the power station. The system's software performs
calculations on the collected metering data to provide total values and costs
for billing purposes.
All design, manufacturing and testing of the Tariff Metering System was
carried out under Kenda's rigorous BS EN ISO 9001 quality system.
