1.1 The power of independence
The IFC 070 is a battery powered electromagnetic signal converter designed for use in
combination with the WATERFLUX 3000 sensor. It is ideal for remote locations in the water
industry where no power connection is available and provides certainty in case of power failure.
The strengths of the WATERFLUX 3070 lies in its unique flow sensor construction with a
rectangular and reduced cross section and its efficient coil construction. The coils provide a
stronger and more homogenous magnetic field, leading to an improved signal to noise ratio. The
measurement is therefore independent of the flow profile and measurements are very stable.
This results in a very good low flow performance.
Because of the unique WATERFLUX flow sensor design, whereby the mean flow velocity and flow
profile are optimised within the rectangular and reduced cross section, the additional
uncertainty for upstream disturbances is drastically reduced. The water meter can be installed
directly behind an elbow or reducer in the pipe without straight inlet or outlet lengths.
A substantial reduction of inlet and outlet sections means smaller measurement pits.
Another major benefit of the rectangular sensor construction is the very low power consumption
of the signal converter. It has a long battery lifetime up to 15 years with two internal batteries
and 20 years with an external battery pack.

1.3 Measuring principle
An electrically conductive fluid flows inside an electrically insulated pipe through a magnetic
field. This magnetic field is generated by a current, flowing through a pair of field coils.
Inside of the fluid, a voltage U is generated:
U = v * k * B * D
U = v * k * B * D
U = v * k * B * DU = v * k * B * D
in which:
v = mean flow velocity
k = factor correcting for geometry
B = magnetic field strength
D = inner diameter of flow meter
The signal voltage U is picked off by electrodes and is proportional to the mean flow velocity v
and thus the flow rate q. A signal converter is used to amplify the signal voltage, filter it and
convert it into signals for totalising, recording and output processing.
PRODUCT FEATURES 1
1 Induced voltage (proportional to flow velocity)
2 Electrodes
3 Magnetic field
4 Field coils
The minimal height of the measuring tube decreases the distance between the field coils (4),
resulting in a stronger and more homogeneous magnetic field (3). In addition, the mean flow
velocity v increases due to the rectangular and reduced cross section. The large electrode
spacing (D) and the increased flow velocity results in a higher magnetic signal voltage, also in
the presence of a low flow rate.

2.2.2 MID Annex MI-001
All new designs of water meters that are to be used for legal purposes in Europe require
certification under the Measurement Instrument Directive (MID) 2004/22/EC.
Annex MI-001 of the MID applies to water meters intended for the measurement of volume of
clean, cold or heated water in residential, commercial, and light industrial use. An EC-type
examination certificate is valid in all countries of the European Union.
The WATERFLUX 3070 has an EC-type examination certificate and can be verified to the
MID Annex MI-001 for water meters with diameter DN25...DN300. The conformity assessment
procedure followed for the WATERFLUX 3070 is Module B (Type Examination) and Module D
(Quality Assurance of the Production Process).
The maximum permissible error on volumes delivered between Q2 (transitional) flow rate and
Q4 (overload) flow rate is ±2%.
The maximum permissible error on volumes delivered between Q1 (minimum) flow rate and Q2
(transitional) flow rate is ±5%.

2.3.1 WATERFLUX 3070 without straight inlet and outlet sections
Disturbed flow profiles, such as those that occur behind elbows, tee pieces, reducers or valves
installed in front of a water meter, affect the measuring performance. Therefore it is usually
recommended to fit a straight inlet length in front of and straight outlet length behind a water
meter.
As a result of the unique WATERFLUX flow sensor design, whereby the mean flow velocity and
flow profile are optimised within the rectangular and reduced cross section, the additional
uncertainty for upstream disturbances are drastically reduced. Therefore the requirements for
straight length and in front of and behind a meter are reduced.
The NMi has performed tests with various flow and swirl disturbers according to ISO 4064 and
EN 14154. Based on these results the WATERFLUX 3070 has received a
OIML R49 certificate

2.6 Battery lifetime
The maximum battery lifetime depends on the choice of battery pack, the diameter and the
measurement interval.
Other factors influencing the battery lifetime include the ambient temperature, the pulse output
settings, the status output, and the pulse width . The graphs show the battery lifetime for the
different available battery types and measurement intervals.
Conditions
The maximum battery lifetime is based on default menu settings, an ambient temperature of
25°C / 77°F and a flow rate at 2 m/s.
Maximum lifetime of batteries for: DN25...200

carrier and to the local office of the manufacturer.
Do a check of the packing list to make sure that you have all the elements given in the order.
Look at the device nameplate to ensure that the device is delivered according to your order.
Check for the correct supply voltage printed on the nameplate.
3.2 Intended use
Responsibility for the use of the measuring devices with regard to suitability, intended use and
corrosion resistance of the used materials against the measured fluid lies solely with the
operator.
The manufacturer is not liable for any damage resulting from improper use or use for other than
the intended purpose.
INSTALLATION 3
This flowmeter is designed exclusively to measure the flow of drinking water, raw water and
irrigation water.
If the device is not used according to the operating conditions (refer to chapter Technical data),
the intended protection could be affected.
3.3 Pre-installation requirements
Make sure that you have all necessary tools available:
• Allen key (4 mm)
• Small screwdriver
• Wrench for cable glands
• Wrench for wall mounting bracket (remote version only)
• Torque wrench for installing flowmeter in pipeline

3.4 General requirements
The following precautions must be taken to ensure reliable installation.
•
Make sure that there is adequate space to the sides.
•
Protect the signal converter from direct sunlight and install a sun shade if necessary.
•
Signal converters installed in control cabinets require adequate cooling, e.g. by fan or heat
exchanger.
•
Do not expose the signal converter to intense vibration. The flowmeters are tested for a
vibration level in accordance with IEC 68-2-64.

3.5.9 IP68
The WATERFLUX 3000 flow sensor is rated IP68 (NEMA 4X/6P). It is suitable for submersion in
flooded measurement chambers and for subsurface installation.
The compact IFC 070 signal converter is available in:
• an aluminium housing suitable for IP66/67, NEMA 4/4X/6
• a polycarbonate housing suitable for IP68, NEMA 4/4X/6.
The remote IFC 070 signal converter is available in:
• an aluminium housing suitable for IP66/67, NEMA 4/4X/6.
INSTALLATION 3
This version is suitable for periodic submersion in flooded measurement chambers. The
output cable has IP68 rated (military) connectors.
In case of continuous or long term submersion it is advised to select the field (remote)
version (IP66/67). Submersion under water is possible down to a depth of 5 meters.
