All-Metal Electromagnetic Flowmeter Model MIM

Description

The new MIM electromagnetic flowmeter measures and monitors
small to medium sized flow of conductive liquids in pipes. According
to Faraday’s Law of magnetic induction, a voltage is induced in a
conductor moving through a magnetic field. The electrically conductive
measured media acts as the conductor. The voltage induced in the
measured media is proportional to the flow velocity and is therefore
a value for the volumetric flow. The induced voltage is detected by
two sensing electrodes which are in contact with the measuring media
and sent to an integrated amplifier. The flow rate will be calculated
based on the cross sectional area of the pipe. The measurement does
not depend on the process liquid and its properties such as density,
viscosity and temperature. The two outputs can be independently set to
switch, or provide an analog or frequency output. A batching function
can also be selected, where output 1 is set to switch as NPN / PNP / PP
and output 2 is set as the control input.
