Magnetic-Inductive Flow Meter
Features
This unit monitors liquids. It detects three processes at once: volumetric flow, consumed quantity and medium temperature. The unit displays the current process values according to the settings selection.
Application area
Conductive liquids with the following properties:
Conductivity: ≥ 20 µS/cm
Viscosity: < 70 mm²/s at 40°C.
Pressure rating: 16 bar.
Medium temperature: -10°C…70°C.
Operating data
Working principle
The liquid flows through a magnetic field. The magnetic-inductive flowmeter requires a conducting fluid, for example, water that contains ions. It generates a signal voltage which is directly proportional to the volumetric flow. In addition to the flow velocity, the unit also detects the flow direction. The positive flow direction is marked on the unit by an arrow. Only positive process values are processed for the signal output.
The unit has an internal quantity meter which continuously totals the volumetric flow. The sum corresponds to the current consumed quantity since the last reset. The current meter count can be indicated and, in addition, the value before the last reset is stored. This value can also be indicated.
