Measuring Utility Use on a Beverage Tunnel
A tunnel’s utility use depends on product entry conditions, production rate, thermal duty and operating interruptions. A general claim of sustainability cannot establish water or energy savings for a particular installation.

Set the measurement boundary
Meter relevant heating, cooling and make-up water over the same period as accepted packages. Record startup and idle operation separately from steady production. Note the package format and thermal process with each result.
Keep treatment performance intact
Any utility change must preserve the approved product-temperature history and package quality. Inspect spray distribution and temperature stability after adjustment. Report savings only from comparable measured runs rather than applying an assumed percentage.
