About the Flow Meter Market
Flow meters measure the mass, quantity, pressure and velocity of any fluid or gas flowing through a pipeline. These meters are classified into two types:
• Analog flow meters
• Smart/intelligent flow meters
At present, the majority of the flow meters used are traditional analog flow meters, which are used to measure the flow of the fluid (oil and water) and gas (LPG, NG, condensate). But the trend is shifting toward the adoption of smart meter technology. Various governments and companies are adopting these new smart meters, which can transmit real-time data about consumption, peak load, and other crucial information such as leakages that need to be addressed immediately.
Technavio’s analysts forecast the global flow meter market to grow at a CAGR of 11.45% during the period 2016-2020.
