    The magnitude of this measurement voltage is proportional to the average flow velocity and the volume flow. 3.2 System Design The meter consists of a flow sensor and a transducer. The flow sensor is used to measure liquid media. The transducer generates the coil current required for the magnetic field and creates the conditions for the induced voltage applied to the electrodes. The meter can be supplied both in a compact form (transducer and flow sensor are directly connected) and separately (both components are connected via a cable). If strong vibra- tions occur in a particular application, a separate design should be installed. © MECON GmbH BA / mag-flux T4 / EN / 19-04...
  • Page 10: Installation Notes

    An inlet of min. 5 x DN and an outlet of min. 2 x DN is required. Where non-stationary vortices extend into the measuring zone (e.g. following elbows, tangential inlets or a half-open valve in front of the sensor), measures to normalise the flow profile are required. Here suitable measures include: » Enlarging the inlet and outlet sections » Use of flow straighteners » Reduction of the pipe cross section © MECON GmbH BA / mag-flux T4 / EN / 19-04...
  • Page 11 Fig. 6 Installation in rising and falling pipes The sensor must be installed so that the measuring tube can not run empty and is always filled with the medium. If the pipeline is not full or if there is only a free-flow line (drain), the sensor must be installed in a culvert. (Fig. 7) Fig. 7 Installation with piping that is always filled © MECON GmbH BA / mag-flux T4 / EN / 19-04...
  • Page 12 Fig. 8 Installation between elbows, valves and pumps (D = DN) If several sensors are connected in series, the distance between the individual sensors must be at least one sensor length. If two or more sensors are mounted side by side, the minimum distance is 1 m. Avoid any buildup of gas at the highest point in the pipeline.

    FE of the sensor. The FE is not connected to the PE, but these may be connected together in the sensor connection. If the sensor is earthed using earthing rings, these must be connected to the functional earth FE. Cathodic protection When using cathode protection devices which apply a voltage to the pipe wall to prevent corrosion, they must be connected to FE. © MECON GmbH BA / mag-flux T4 / EN / 19-04...
