Heat Meters

Micronics heat meters are designed to accurately measure thermal energy consumption in heating and cooling systems. Each meter integrates a flow sensor to monitor the volume of fluid passing through the system, paired with temperature sensors that detect the difference between supply and return temperatures. This data is processed by a calculator to determine the precise amount of energy used, ensuring efficient energy management and fair billing.

Micronics manufactures and distributes heat and energy meters for precise metering in residential, commercial, and industrial settings. Heat meters measure heat energy consumption, making them essential for managing heating in multi-tenant properties.

As established heat meter suppliers in the UK, we support building owners, energy managers, and facilities teams with reliable and proven heat metering solutions.

Precision Energy Metering for District Heating and BMS Integration

Our range of heat meters, also known as thermal energy meters, provides accurate measurement of energy consumption in heating and cooling systems. We offer solutions for every stage of building management, from MID Class 2 approved inline meters for billing and RHI compliance, to non intrusive clamp on meters for retrofit energy surveys.

These meters are essential for Building Energy Management Systems (BEMS), tenant billing, and monitoring the efficiency of boilers, chillers, and heat pumps.

Which Heat Meter Should You Choose?

  1. For RHI, Tenant Billing & New Builds, The Fiscal Choice
    For applications where you are charging tenants for energy or claiming Renewable Heat Incentive (RHI) payments, you must use a certified meter. The SensoStar range is MID Class 2 Approved and fully RHI compliant.Best for: District heating networks, residential billing, and government compliance.Key Feature: Certified accuracy for financial transactions.
  2. For Retrofits, Energy Audits & BMS, The Management Choice
    When you need to monitor energy efficiency without cutting pipes or stopping the system, the Ultraflo U1000 is the industry standard. While not for fiscal billing, it is designed to comply with EN1434 calculation standards, giving you high accuracy data for internal cost allocation and energy reduction.Best for: Hospitals, factories, and universities needing to track energy use without downtime.Key Feature: Clamp on technology installs in minutes with zero interruption.

Heat Meters | Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a flow meter and a heat meter?
A flow meter only measures the volume of fluid moving through a pipe. A heat meter combines this flow data with temperature readings from the supply and return pipes, using PT100 sensors, to calculate the actual thermal energy consumed.

Which Micronics heat meters are RHI compliant?
For RHI applications and tenant billing, you must use an MID Class 2 approved meter. Our inline range, including the SensoStar, meets these strict standards. For non billing energy management, our Ultraflo clamp on meter is the ideal solution.

Can I use a clamp on heat meter for billing tenants?
Generally no. Clamp on meters are excellent for internal energy management, checking efficiency, and allocating costs between departments. However, they are not typically MID approved for fiscal billing, charging money, or RHI payments. For billing, we recommend our SensoStar inline meters.

CASE STUDY

Data EM Services

A Hertfordshire-based metering & billing agent for multi-utilities used 4 Micronics U1000 heat meters in the middle of 2018 to meter flow rates and energy within a large centralised heating system with large transmission steel pipes (DN120) to track typical performance parameters.
