Overview and purpose/Overview and purpose---------------------------------------------------◆◆
|
Electromagnetic flow meters are used to measure the volumetric flow rate of conductive liquids and slurry liquids in closed pipelines. They are suitable for industries such as petrochemicals, steel metallurgy, water supply and drainage, water conservancy and irrigation, water treatment, environmental wastewater total control, electricity, papermaking, food, etc. They can be matched with computers to achieve system control. 2、 Principle |
Working principle/working principle-----------------------------------------------------------◆◆
|
The measurement principle of electromagnetic flowmeter is based on Faraday's law of electromagnetic induction. The measuring tube of the flowmeter is a non-magnetic alloy short tube lined with insulating material. Two electrodes are fixed on the measuring tube by passing through the tube wall along the diameter direction. The electrode tip is basically flush with the inner surface of the lining. When the excitation coil is excited by bidirectional square wave pulses, a working magnetic field with a magnetic flux density of B will be generated in the direction perpendicular to the axis of the measuring tube. At this point, if a fluid with a certain conductivity flows through the measuring tube, an electromotive force E will be induced by cutting the magnetic field lines. The electromotive force E is proportional to the product of the magnetic flux density B, the inner diameter d of the measuring tube, and the average flow velocity V. The electromotive force E (flow signal) is detected by the electrode and sent to the converter through a cable. After amplifying and processing the flow signal, the converter can display the fluid flow rate and output signals such as pulses and simulated currents for flow control and regulation. |
In Figure 1-1, when the conductive fluid flows at an average velocity V( )By installing a pair of measuring electrodes with an inner diameter of D( )When the insulated tube flows, and the tube is in a uniform magnetic field with a magnetic induction intensity of B (T). So, an electromotive force (E) perpendicular to the magnetic field direction and flow direction will be induced on a pair of electrodes. According to the law of electromagnetic induction, it can be written as equation (1): |

Important note about active and passive 4-20mA: |
The electromagnetic flowmeter is a 4-wire instrument that is different from the two-wire instrument's 4-20mA. The two-wire 4-20mA instrument requires an ammeter to be measured and an external 24V power supply to work properly. However, the electromagnetic flowmeter itself is a 4-wire 4-20mA instrument that already has a 24V power supply inside and does not require an external connection. It only needs to be connected to a simple ammeter. Without special customization instructions, our company's electromagnetic flow meters are all active 4-20mA and do not require an external 24V power supply, otherwise the instrument will be burned out. |
|
|
|
① Integrated electromagnetic flowmeter active 4-20mA output wiring (by default, the integrated electromagnetic flowmeter is active 4-20mA, and the user equipment ammeter cannot have power output) |
|
② Passive 4-20mA output wiring of integrated electromagnetic flowmeter (Passive 4-20mA of integrated electromagnetic flowmeter needs to be specified when ordering, otherwise it is an active 4-20mA output) |
|
|
|
|
|
|
③ Active 4-20mA output wiring of split electromagnetic flowmeter (split electromagnetic flowmeter does not require special customization and supports both active and passive 4-20mA) |
|
④ Passive 4-20mA output wiring of split electromagnetic flowmeter (split electromagnetic flowmeter does not require special customization and supports both active and passive 4-20mA) |
|
|
|
|
⑤ How does the user device determine whether active current output or passive current output is required? |
a. Disconnect the 4-20mA connection wire between the electromagnetic flowmeter and the user equipment to ensure that the user equipment is in an open circuit state. |
b. Use a digital multimeter to measure whether the 4-20mA connection line of the user device has a voltage of around 24V. |
c. If there is a voltage of around 24V, passive current output is required; otherwise, active current output is required; |
|
Transportation mode/type of shipping------------------------------------------------------------◆◆
|
a. Do not lift the flowmeter through the integrated converter housing |
b. Do not use metal suspension chains |
c. Please use leather straps to lift the flowmeter |
