Frequently Asked Questions

We design and build industrial hardware. That covers four to eight layer PCBs laid out in Altium, firmware written in C for ARM chips, and radio modems tested for hazardous IECEx Zone 1 locations. We take projects from initial schematics through bench calibration and factory manufacturing.

The Series-U is our flagship solid-state metering platform, engineered specifically to replace legacy diaphragm and rotary meters. Developed on the foundation of Granted Patent No. 114282 invented by Mehdi Kaviany Cheraty, it utilizes transit-time ultrasonic flow sensing to offer zero-wear measurement accuracy over a 15+ year operational lifespan. Crucially, the Series-U is natively 'H2-Ready', featuring active speed-of-sound gas property tracking that accurately measures natural gas, biomethane, and hydrogen blends (0% to 100% H2) without requiring physical component modification or recalibration.

Yes, all Series-U smart gas meters are engineered from the ground up to support the global energy transition toward Net Zero carbon emissions. While conventional meters suffer severe measurement drift under hydrogen injection due to dramatic changes in sound velocity and compressibility, Series-U leverages patented acoustic multi-parameter tracking to perform real-time composition identification. Onboard math solves AGA8 and GERG-2008 equations in real time. It calculates heating value in megajoules directly at the pipe, preventing billing disputes during gas composition changes.

Our instruments transmit index logs over cellular NB-IoT or LoRaWAN networks. Signals leave basement meters and reach city cell towers reliably. Encrypted index logs upload once daily under AES-128 protection, and operators can trigger remote valve shutdowns via DLMS/COSEM.

Absolutely. All electronic stages and gas-wetted transducers are designed in strict adherence to intrinsic safety standards (IEC 60079-11 Ex-ia Group IIC T4, certified for hydrogen-air explosive atmospheres). Products like our Series-U10 Commercial and Industrial models feature IP67-rated die-cast aluminum housings and an automated emergency seismic and micro-leak shut-off valve with an Anti-Reset safety lock, preventing unauthorized reopening after incident events.

Yes, T.S.P. Co.'s engineering capabilities extend across high-reliability electronics sectors. Our R&D team has successfully developed mission-critical medical hardware (including kidney dialysis control systems utilizing RTOS and advanced ARM microcontrollers), automotive OBD-II diagnostic equipment complying with ISO 7637, and KNX protocol-compliant smart building automation modules.

Yes, we provide end-to-end product commercialization services designed to accelerate time-to-market. Our team manages every milestone—from schematic capture and 3D PCB layout to rapid prototyping, EMC/EMI pre-compliance testing, thermal analysis, firmware flashing, and Design for Manufacturing (DFM) optimization for high-yield automated SMT assembly.

The core acoustic sensing and hydrogen discrimination technology in Series-U meters is protected under official Granted Patent No. 114282 (granted August 8, 2026 by the State Organization for Registration of Deeds and Properties, Industrial Property General Office) entitled 'Smart Ultrasonic Gas Meter with a Mechanism for Detecting and Measuring Natural Gas and Hydrogen Composition', solely owned by Mehdi Kaviany Cheraty. An international patent application is actively in progress under the Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT) with the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), supported by the Intellectual Property Management Center of the Vice-Presidency for Science and Technology.
