  • Page 4 PARTIALLY FILLED PIPE SITUATIONS ® Magnetoflow mag meters are designed to operate in closed, full pipes. It is relatively common to encounter situations where the process pipe will remain momentarily partially filled due to certain hydraulic conditions. Examples of this include discharge to the atmosphere (lack of back pressure), insufficient line pressure, gravity flow applications, etc.

    TROUBLESHOOTING ® The Magnetoflow mag meter should give you many years of maintenance free operation. However, should it malfunction, there are certain things ® that we recommend you check before contacting our technical support department or your local Badger Representative. Note: If the fluid measured has a high concentration of conductive solids, deposits may accumulate on the internal liner walls and electrodes.
