3. TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION

3.1. General description

The electromagnetic flowmeter consists of a sensor through which flows the measured liquid and an
transmitter where the low-level signal from a sensor is modified to the standardised form suitable for further
processing in various industrial electronic devices. The output signal is proportional to the volume flow rate of
the measured liquid. The only factor limiting the application of induction flow meters is the requirement that
the measured liquid must be conductive and non-magnetic.
as a compact device or with the sensor separated from the associated transmitter. In the former case, the
transmitter is fitted directly onto the meter sensor, in the latter case it is connected to the sensor by a special
cable.
The sensor design shall take into consideration the type of the measured liquid and its operational
parameters. To facilitate fitting into the liquid piping, the sensor can be provided with end flanges, screwing,
or it may be of a sandwich design. The transmitter is supplied in two basic versions, COMFORT or
ECONOMIC. The supply voltage, types of output signal and communication interface can be selected
according to the customer requirements.
The basic configuration of the induction flow meter includes two insulated passive binary outputs (each with
an optocoupler including a transistor output) and the USB communication interface. This interface is not
insulated as it is used for calibration purposes only. Optional accessories to this basic configuration are
insulated current output and insulated RS-485 communication interface, output relay, INPUT1 and
OUTPUT3 for batching (all these electrically insulated from the transmitter circuitry).
