FocusOn: Using PrevEx Flammability Analyzers for Energy Savings

The cost of natural gas used for heating process ovens, dryers, & kilns can be substantial. Fortunately, there is a way to lower your bill: install the PrevEx Flammability Analyzer. The use of this continuous solvent vapor analyzer allows the implementation of several money-saving steps, ranging from a simple reduction of heated ventilation air to a combination of both reduced heating and increased production. This can result in dramatic savings!

To learn how you can decrease your energy costs, call 973.575.9114 or visit www.controlinstruments.com.

No, it is due to restocking of inventories and will slow back down.
No, high unemployment will keep consumer spending down.
Yes, it is a true measure of the recession being over.
