TUALATIN, Oregon, March 30, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- CUI Global, Inc. (NASDAQ:CUI), announced today that its wholly-owned United Kingdom energy subsidiary, Orbital Gas Systems Ltd.

This PO, the first in Portugal and the first through Orbital's representative Anisol (based in Spain and Portugal), is for a low-pressure version of the complete GasPTi sampling and analysis system (GasPTi-LP), which will be installed at one of Europe's largest glass bottle manufacturers to improve and reduce excess air being used in its furnaces.
Based on the time the GasPTi takes to reach 90% of the applied concentration or "T90" response of less than 10 seconds and the Calorific Value calculation error of less than 0.5%, the amount of excess air being sent through the system will be cut in half. That improved combustion efficiency will lead to fuel savings of 5-8%, yielding a return on investment in 6 weeks or less. There are an additional 3 furnaces operated at this site on which the GasPTi-LP systems will apply once the data has been analyzed by the customer.
As explained by William Clough, CUI Global's CEO & President, "This is the first deployment of these exciting technologies into Portugal and specifically into the glass industry. The potential payback for the end user is significant and opens up opportunities for significant additional orders by this customer and other worldwide large industrial users ("LIU")."
"The container glass industry alone is estimated to be worth $60 billion by the end of 2019 and, by offering this level of savings to end users, we highlight the vast potential market for the GasPT and VE Technologies. Due to its low CAPEX and OPEX, high accuracy, low maintenance, simple operation and immediate return-on-investment, there are many LIU's manufacturing glass; cement; chemicals, fertilizer; and everything in between, who can and will benefit from using these proprietary technologies." concluded Clough.
