Split electromagnetic flowmeters are mainly used to measure the volume flow of conductive liquid and slurry in closed pipes. Including acid, alkali, salt and other highly corrosive liquids.

The connection method between the electromagnetic flowmeter and RS485: Connect the TXD and RXD of the flowmeter to the RX+ and RX- of the RS485. If the connected wire is relatively long, a matching resistor of 100-200 ohms can be added at the remote end, and then plug the RS485 into the serial port of the microcomputer. After the connection is completed, how do we know that the connection is correct and no errors have occurred? Test method for 485 communication of electromagnetic flowmeter

Another important requirement of the electromagnetic flowmeter: how to accurately select the lining material, the lining material of the electromagnetic flowmeter should be selected according to the erosion, wear and temperature of the measured medium.

Electromagnetic flowmeter is a kind of induction meter to measure the volume flow of conductive medium, which can be used to measure the volume flow of strong corrosive liquid such as strong acid and alkali and uniform liquid-solid two-phase suspended liquid such as mud, pulp, pulp, etc.

Electromagnetic flowmeter for our life has a great positive significance, for large pipe diameter occasions, the insertion electromagnetic flowmeter has obvious advantages, then about the insertion electromagnetic flowmeter you do not fully understand?

Electromagnetic flow meters, also known as magmeters, are advanced devices used for measuring the flow rate of conductive fluids such as water and slurries. These meters operate based on the principles of electromagnetic induction. A magnetic field is generated by the meter’s coils, and as the conductive fluid flows through the meter’s pipe, it generates a voltage proportional to the flow rate. The strength of this induced voltage is directly correlated with the speed of the fluid, allowing for accurate and reliable flow measurements.

The intelligent electromagnetic flowmeter is mainly used to measure the volume flow of conductive liquids and slurries in closed pipelines, including strongly corrosive liquids such as acids, alkalis and salts. Electromagnetic flowmeters are widely used in industries such as petroleum, chemical engineering, metallurgy, textile, food, pharmaceuticals, and papermaking, as well as in fields like environmental protection, municipal management, and water conservancy construction.

Electromagnetic flow meters offer several advantages, making them a popular choice in various industrial applications. Here are some of the key advantages of electromagnetic flow meters:

Electromagnetic flowmeter is a kind of induction instrument to measure the volume flow of conductive medium in tubes. It has been used in many fields. It is popular for its intuitive display and convenient operation. Here is to introduce the electromagnetic flowmeter according to the use.

A type electromagnetic flowmeter does not require a separate converter; The separation electromagnetic flowmeter type converter is installed near the sensor or the instrument room, the place to choose is larger, the environmental conditions are better than the sensor, and the protection level is IP65 or IP64 (dust and splash level).

During the production and operation of the intelligent split-type sewage electromagnetic flowmeter, various faults may occur. 1. Instrument indication errors caused by faults in the instrument itself, including damage to the structural components or parts of the instrument, etc.

Pipe diameter and pipe vibration

The pipe diameter range of some types of flowmeters is not very wide. Therefore, if it is too large or too small, it will limit the selection of flowmeter varieties. To measure low or high flow rates, a flowmeter pipe diameter different from the pipe diameter size can be selected.

According to different working conditions, split electromagnetic flowmeters can be divided into the following types:

Compared with other flow measuring instruments, electromagnetic flowmeters have the following outstanding advantages

Electromagnetic flowmeter is a speed meter to measure the volume flow of conductive media. While carrying out on-site monitoring and display, it can output standard current signals for recording, adjustment and control, realizing automatic control of detection, and realizing long-distance transmission of signals. It can be widely used in water, chemical, coal, environmental protection, textile, metallurgy, paper and other industries in the flow measurement of conductive liquid.

The plug-in electromagnetic flowmeter has a wide range of applications, and can be used to measure the volume flow of conductive liquid and slurry in closed pipelines in many fields such as petroleum, chemical industry, metallurgy, paper making, environmental protection, municipal management, water conservancy construction and so on.

One notable advantage of electromagnetic flow meters is their ability to measure bidirectional flow accurately. As the induced voltage is directly proportional to the fluid’s velocity, these meters are highly responsive to changes in flow rates, enabling real-time monitoring and control. Additionally, electromagnetic flow meters are not affected by factors such as temperature, pressure, or viscosity, ensuring consistent and reliable performance across diverse operating conditions. This working principle, coupled with their durability and low maintenance requirements, makes electromagnetic flow meters a preferred choice in industries requiring precise and stable flow measurements.

What fault will occur during the debugging period of the plug-in electromagnetic flowmeter, the split electromagnetic flowmeter and the initial debugging fault, but once the fault is improved, it will generally not occur again under the same conditions.

The installation direction of the electromagnetic flowmeter is not particularly strict requirements, generally horizontal, vertical or inclined can be unlimited. However, it must be reminded that in order to ensure that the pipeline is full of the measured medium, that is, the “full tube” state, it is recommended to install vertically, flow from bottom to bottom, especially for liquid-solid two-phase fluids, it must be installed vertically. If the site only allows horizontal installation, it must be ensured that the two electrodes are in the same horizontal plane, and the axis of the electrode must be approximately horizontal, because the electrode at the bottom is easily covered by sediment, and the top electricity is easily wiped by the occasional bubble in the liquid, covering the electrode surface and making the output signal fluctuate. The following lists the matters that need attention in the installation of electromagnetic flowmeters:

The insert type electromagnetic flowmeter is an instrument used to measure conductive liquids, especially for large diameter pipe measurements.

Electromagnetic flowmeter has become one of the flow meters for measuring media in chemical enterprises. As long as the liquid has a certain conductivity, the electromagnetic flowmeter can be used to stop the flow measurement.

The material of construction is also a vital aspect in electromagnetic flowmeter selection. Different applications may require flowmeters made from specific materials to withstand corrosive environments or harsh chemicals. Ensuring that the materials of construction are compatible with the fluid and environmental conditions helps enhance the longevity and reliability of the flowmeter.

Another critical factor to consider is the flow rate range of the application. Electromagnetic flowmeters exhibit excellent accuracy and stability across a broad range of flow rates, making them suitable for both low-flow and high-flow applications. It is essential to match the flowmeter’s specifications, such as its minimum and maximum flow rates, with the expected flow conditions in the system.

One of the defining features of electromagnetic flowmeters is their exceptional precision and accuracy in measuring fluid flow rates. The utilization of Faraday’s law of electromagnetic induction ensures that the induced voltage is directly proportional to the flow rate of the conductive liquid passing through the magnetic field. This inherent accuracy makes electromagnetic flowmeters a go-to choice in applications where precise measurements are critical, such as in pharmaceutical manufacturing, chemical processing, and water treatment.
