1 WORKING PRINCIPLE

The FLOMID electromagnetic ﬂowmeters are based on Faraday’s induction law.

When an electrically conductive liquid ﬂows through a magnetic ﬁeld, perpendicular to the

ﬂow direction, it induces a voltage Vm proportional to the liquid velocity.

Two electrodes in contact with the liquid and positioned perpendicularly to the magnetic

ﬁeld, sense this voltage V.

2 RECEPTION

The FLOMID electromagnetic ﬂowmeters are supplied conveniently packaged for

transportation together with their instruction manual for installation and operation.

All the ﬂowmeters have been veriﬁed in our calibration rigs to obtain the Fc factor for each

sensor.

2.1 Unpacking

Unpack the instrument carefully, removing any remains of the packing from the inside of the

sensor. Do not remove the grease from the neck that couples to the electronics housing.

2.2 Storage temperatures

Sensors linings of : PTFE and PVDF -20ºC ...... +60ºC

PP and EBONITE -5ºC ...... +50ºC

V = B·vm·D

Where:

V = Measured voltage in the electrodes

B = Magnetic ﬁeld

vm= Average liquid velocity

D = Pipe diameter

4 INSTALLATION

This should be made in a point that guarantees that the pipe is always completely full.

Avoid high points of the pipes where air pockets usually form, or pipes with falling ﬂow where

vacuums can form.

Partially full pipes can produce important reading errors.

Flow rate measurement with open discharge makes it necessary to install the ﬂowmeter in a

pipe section with a siphon which avoids stagnation of air in the sensor.

3 HANDLING

It should always be done with care and without knocks.

The large diameter sensors have rings for holding the elevation elements. If the ﬂowmeter is

held using slings, these should hold on the sensor and not on the electronics housing (see

drawing).

4.2 Straight pipe sections

They are necessary before and after the sensor. The minimum distances are the following:

Upstream 5 DN

Downstream 3 DN

In installations with turbulent ﬂow it may be necessary to increase these distances.

4.1 Sensor position

The most adequate position is with the electrodes in a horizontal plane. In this way,

deposits of particles on the electrodes are avoided.

4.2.1 Mixtures

If liquids of different conductivities are mixed it is necessary to install the sensor a minimum

of 30 DN from the point of mixture in order to obtain a uniform conductivity of the liquid and

stabilize the readings.

If this distance is shorter, readings may be unstable.

4.4 Pumps

Pumps should be mounted upstream from the sensor to avoid the suction of the pump

(vacuum) that could damage the sensor liner.

4.3 Valves

Control valves or shut-off valves should always be installed downstream from the sensor to

assure that the pipe is always full of liquid.

4.5 Aeration

If there is a point where the difference in level is higher than 5 m an air inlet valve should be

installed after the sensor to avoid a vacuum effect that could damage the sensor liner.

4.6 Reduction of DN

In installations where, due to reasons of the ﬂow rate to be measured, a sensor of a smaller

DN than the pipe DN must be mounted, the reduction must be done with an angle smaller

than 4º to avoid turbulences that can give false readings.

If the angle cannot be so small, straight pipe sections indicated in point 4.2 must be kept.

4.7 Vibrations

Vibrations of the pipes should be avoided by anchoring the pipe before and after the sensor.

The vibration level should be less than 2.2 g in the range of 20-150 Hz according to IEC 068-

2-34.
