FloPro vs DPC Tools

Diagnosing or troubleshooting gas related issues at the appliance level is easier than ever with the FloPro-MD. The FloPro-MD removes the guesswork and offers you a means of determining gas pressure (psi), gas flow (CFH) and converting the information to heat output in BTU/hr. By doing so, it allows you to determine if the proper amount of gas is flowing to the equipment and the equipment is delivering the expected output per specifications. Thousands of service technicians and installers, like yourself, are out on the road today troubleshooting issues with gas burning equipment. Most of you use a manometer to determine gas pressure at the equipment, but do you know what the actual flow of gas is in cubic feet per hour (CFH) and the equivalent BTU/hr output capacity of that flowing gas? Probably not. Whether you are performing a start-up on a gas generator, a boiler or responding to a customer complaint that their appliance is not working as it should, you can feel confident that the information collected by the FloPro-MD will put both yours and your customer’s mind at ease. The FloPro-MD is a compact, light-weight, electronic device that can be easily installed in a matter of minutes. The installation could be temporary to verify proper gas flow during start-up and commissioning of gas equipment or for a longer period of time to log information to assist in troubleshooting a new or repeat problem. The FloPro-MD communicates via Bluetooth connectivity with any smart device. With the data that is collected by the device, a csv file is generated that can be emailed to you or your customer or a hard copy printed and submitted with a work report and/or filed.

Tools to determine Pipe Buoyancy, External Load Design, Flow, Pricing, Rep locator, and Truckload calculator that are utilized to design and build projects using PVC pipe. All applications have an option to print the results once determined. Buoyancy Calculator The Buoyancy Calculator allows the user to determine the buoyancy force of PVC pipe during construction as well as once the pipe is installed and in use. The user chooses the pipe from drop down lists, inputs the Specific Gravity of the fluid around the pipe, the Unit Weight of the backfill material, the Concrete or Flowable Fill unit weight, and the amount of water in the pipe. Output allows the contractor to know the maximum height of each lift of Flowable fill or Concrete placed before floatation occurs, the minimum soil cover in feet with pipe empty to prevent floatation, and the Buoyancy force per foot length of pipe when empty or full of water. External Load Design This application allows the user to estimate the percent of ring deflection in buried flexible pipe utilizing the Modified Iowa Equation. This equation has been used since the late 1950’s to accurately calculate expected maximum deflections. The application follows the latest methods outlined in AWWA M23 and allows the user to choose each of the input variables based upon specific known conditions and also offers the option of selecting inputs from recommended values. Flow Calculator This calculator provides Friction loss (psi), Velocity (ft/second), and Fuel costs in dollars per hour for comparable pipe products under comparable flow conditions. It may be used to compare different diameters or different pipe products to allow the user to choose the best pipe to be used for the design as well as for life cycle costs used in value engineering of projects. Pricing The Pricing calculator allows the user to choose the PVC pipe use whether Agricultural or Utility pipe and input the Block price. The output is in dollars per foot of pipe. Find A Representative The application allows the user to choose the PVC pipe use whether for Agricultural of Utility and then choose the Nation that the pipe representative works in from a drop down list. Once a Postal Code in entered the output shows a picture and contact information for the Diamond Plastics Corporation sales representative in that area. Truckload Calculator The application allows the user to choose the nearest Diamond Plastics Corporation PVC pipe manufacturing facility from a drop down list. The user can then choose from Water, Sewer, or Ag products, the pipe type and input the quantity desired. The output will indicate the percentage of a truckload that the chosen pipe and quantity will occupy for shipment.
