Sage Metering is a manufacturer of thermal mass flow meters that are used to measure and monitor gas mass flow for a variety of industrial, environmental and municipal applications. The company headquarters is in Monterey, California and the company employs fewer than 50 employees.[1]
In 2003, the firm introduced the first hybrid-digital thermal mass flow meter in lieu of the traditional Wheatstone bridge technology. It provided improved resolution and reproducibility.[1]
The firm introduced a portable battery-operated thermal mass flow meter, known as the Prism®, which can log up to 3,800 gas flow points during ten hours of operation. It was awarded the Flow Control Innovations Award in 2011.[2]
Sage Metering was the first thermal flow meter manufacturer to provide a unique and easy to invoke on-site calibration verification.[3] (This saves time and money since the user does not have to remove the meter and return it to the factory (or a third party) for annual flow meter calibration). The advance also makes it possible to use thermal mass meters in environmental applications to report greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) per EPA regulations,[4] as well as quantify carbon credits per U.S. carbon credit protocols.[5] The firm received the 2012 Flow Control Innovations Award for this advancement.[6]
