New Sierra Clean Energy Guide Radically Expands Environmental Flow Measurement Solutions

Monterey, CA — January 17, 2011 — Sierra Instruments, a leading global mass flow instrument manufacturer, announces the publication of its new free 40-page Sierra Clean Energy Guide in printed format. The guide offers engineers, scientist, plant managers, and designers alike an up close look at how Sierra is partnering with customers from all over the world to develop sustainable solutions to some of today’s most pressing environmental problems.

From high performance flow measurement tools that help create biofuel from solid wastes to unlocking the carbon history in Antarctic ice to determine how much CO2 the ocean can digest, the Sierra Clean Energy Guide details a broad range of problem/solution scenarios.

“The environmental and economic challenges we face right now are huge,” says Matthew J. Olin, President of Sierra, “and we’re doing everything we can to support the visionaries that are passionately pursuing a more sustainable future. Our new Sierra Clean Energy Guide introduces some of our most innovative partners and the unique solutions we have developed by “Thinking Ahead”...together.

Geothermal and Solar industry insiders will find this guide invaluable. A look inside shows how Sierra’s 241 insertion vortex mass flow meter drives steam measurement efficiency with improved accuracy, wider turndown, and reliability at a lower installed cost. Find out how Sierra’s flagship Smart-Trak®2 is playing a pivotal in the manufacturing of photovoltaic panels.

End users in the Biogas, Wastewater and Landfill industries will see how challenging applications in these sectors are met using Sierra’s best-selling thermal mass flow meter offerings, the Model 640S and 780S. The industrial thermal devices features patented dry sensor technology backed by a lifetime warranty, pinpoint accuracy and wide turndown.

In addition, the guide explores how water and energy conservation efforts are met using the Model 205 clamp-on, non-intrusive ultrasonic flow meter designed to measure thermal energy flow rate and totalized energy consumption in liquid heating and cooling applications.

These are just a few of the powerful solutions that readers will find in the Sierra Clean Energy Guide. Contact Sierra for a free printed version or Download a free copy of the new Sierra Clean Energy Guide from Sierra’s website at http://www.sierrainstruments.com/ceg_download.html .
