3. Liquid Flow Measurement Studies The company provides diagnostic flow evaluation services using non-invasive measurement methodologies.

   • Clamp-On Ultrasonic Testing: Evaluates fluid velocity, volumetric flow rate, and pipe conditions from the outside without cutting into active process piping.
   • Process Optimization: Helps facilities verify flow meter accuracy, identify internal restrictions, and troubleshoot system dynamics without interrupting operation.

4. Instrument Calibration and Repair Services Metrology and instrument health are primary operational focus areas for Norse Technologies.

   • Field and Benchtop Calibration: Offers calibration services for industrial sensors, transmitters, and test hardware to ensure ongoing traceably accurate operations.
   • Maintenance & Repair: Facilitates routine preventive maintenance as well as rapid-response corrective repairs on hardware and software configurations.

5. Start-Up Assembly and Configuration To ensure seamless integration, Norse engineers provide complete commissioning support.

   • On-Site Assembly: Oversees physical setup and wiring of measurement skids, transmitters, and control panels.
   • System Verification: Conducts operational tests and fine-tuning prior to handoff, including technical training for operating staff.

Proprietary Products & Fabricated Solutions

In addition to representing third-party manufacturers, Norse Technologies manufactures a dedicated lineup of specialized proprietary instrumentation hardware:

1. Amalgamator Gate Controller A dedicated digital measurement and control console designed for spillway radial gates.

   • Measurement Accuracy: Delivers gate height measurement accurate to +/- 0.01 feet (1/100th of a foot).
   • Human Machine Interface (HMI) & SCADA: Displays real-time operational data locally on a ruggedized display and transmits telemetry to central SCADA networks.
   • Safety & Access Control: Features key-switch switching for auto/manual operation modes alongside user authentication to restrict unauthorized access.

2. Industrial Pressure Control Panel A heavy-duty, consolidated test station built for testing relief valves, static calibrations, and regulated pressure sources in the natural gas and oilfields sector.

   • Operating Range: Handles pressure sources ranging from 100 PSI to 3,000 PSI.
   • Operator Safety Enclosure: Encloses high-pressure regulators, manifolds, and piping connections behind a 12-inch by 16-inch, 10-gauge stainless steel panel to shield operators from line failures.
   • Flexible Deployment: Can be deployed as a freestanding bench, vehicle/toolbox mounting kit, or portable field testing kit.

3. Pressure Volume Controller A high-precision manual or semi-automated pressure generation device used in metrology applications to dial in exact calibration pressures for sensors and deadweight gauges.

4. Industrial Vibration Box A specialized enclosure designed to isolate or test vibration sensors, transmitters, and monitoring hardware in harsh field environments.

5. Sampling Pigtails & Actuated Valve Assemblies Custom-built sample conditioning hardware, impulse piping loops, and automated valve packages configured for severe service, high-pressure, or corrosive media.
