MEASURING SYSTEM FOR ACTUAL ENERGY CONSUMPTION OF CENTRAL HEATING RADIATORS
A system for measuring the actual energy consumption of each individual radiator in central heating installations, wherein the energy consumption of a single radiator is measured in real and actual units of heat Kw/h by a digital control unit (4) for data processing, connected by means of an electric cable (3) to a metal part, where a flowmeter and temperature sensor (1 ) are installed at the radiator outlet and connected by means of an electric cable (5) to a metal ring with a temperature sensor (7) installed at the radiator outlet, and the digital control unit consists of a module in the form of an electric appliance (4) and data which is the data of real used Kcals or Kw/h by a central heating radiator in certain operating time and identification number of the device will be stored in the memory of the device until read by radio connection (9); transmitted to a collective device according to the settings, a device for collective reading and data transmission (8). Preferably a mechanical flowmeter (1 ) is equipped with rotating vanes (1 d) from which impulses are recorded by an electronic recording device (1f) and a temperature probe (1 g) measuring the temperature of the liquid outflow from a radiator. The electronic device (4) contains an electronic digital systems module (4a) with a program for processing data into the actual heat consumption data of a radiator, powered by a battery (4b). The internal flowmeter rim (1 e) has a diameter adapted to the internal diameter of the valve (2b) and a rubber or plastic gasket (1 c) applied on the rim (1 e), which, together with the radiator union, guarantees a tight connection. The system can be installed horizontally or vertically without loss or alteration of data, it can be mounted absolutely on every central heating radiator without limits of what material the radiator is made of, of what the power is or where it is located in a given room and also without the need to enter additional technical data of the radiator into the software in the data receiver.
