Digital Refrigerant Water Electromagnetic Flow Meter with Analog
Output
1. Introduction
MLF electromagnetic flow meter, composed of sensor and converter,
works based on Faraday’s law of electromagnetic induction law. It
is used to measure electrical conductivity of liquid or solid.
Generally, the electrical conductivity should be over
5υS/cm(electrical conductivity of tap water, raw water is about
100～500υS/cm),It can also be used to measure various media like
acid, alkali, saline solution, paper pulp or pulp and so on. But
these media can’t contain a lot of magnetic materials and bubbles.
MLF electromagnetic flow meter is a kind of instrument which is
used for measuring the flow conductivity liquid. The meter is
widely used in flow measuring of Metallurgy, Chemical Industry,
Paper Industry,Environmental Protection, Oil Industry, Textile
Industry, Food Industry and City Administration, Water Works,etc.
2.Working Principle
The principle of the sensor is based on Faraday’s law of
electromagnetic induction.
It is installed a pair of detection electrodes on the pipe
wall,where the measurement pipe axis and magnetic field lines are
vertical. When the conductive liquid cuts magnetic field lines and
produces induced electromagnetic force.Which can be measured by the
two electrodes on the
meter pipe.The result can be calculated by formula: Induced
electromotive force,(flow signal) E=KBDV
E——Induced electromotive force,V；
K——meter constant；
B——Magnetic flux density,T；
D——Internal diameter of measuring pipe,m；
V——Average velocity of pipe section,m/s.
MLF Series Electromagnetic Flow Meter
Assume the volume of liquid as qv(m3/s),qv=πD2V/4),so in the
formula E=(4kB/πD)qv=kqv,
K is meter constant,K=4kB/πD.
Actually, the electromagnetic flow meter consists of two parts,
transmitter and sensor, the measuring electrodes inspect the
electromotive force, and transmit to the converter, the converter
provides excitation current.
E is usually called a flow signal, after processing the flow signal
by converter, output 4~20 mA/pulse(or frequency) signal which is
proportional to the flow rate, then the flow rate
recording,adjusting can be achieved.

5. Selection of Electrode Materials
| Electrode Material | Main Performance |
| 316L | Good corrosion resistance of nitric acid, sulfuric acid, acetic
acid, alkaline liquid at room temperature < 5%, sulfite,
seawater, acetic acid and other corrosion under certain pressure,
can be widely used in petrochemical urea, vinylon and so on. |
| Hb | Good resistance to all concentrations below the boiling point of
hydrochloric acid, but also resistant to non-oxidizing acid,
alkali, sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid, hydrofluoric acid, organic
acid corrosion. |
| Hc | Resistant to the corrosion of oxidizing acid, such as nitric acid
and mixed acid. The mixture of chromic acid and sulfuric acid,
oxidized salts, such as Fe3+, Q3+, and other oxidants, such as the
mixture of hypochlorite solution and seawater at higher than normal
temperature. |
| Ti | Resistant to corrosion of seawater, various chlorides, hyalphates,
oxidizing acids (including smoke nitric acid), organic acids or
alkalis, but not pure reduced acids (e.g. sulphuric acid,
hydrochloric acid). However, if the acid contains oxidants (e.g.
nitric acid, Fe3, Q3), corrosion resistance is reduced. |
| Ta | Good corrosion resistance similar to glass. Resistance to the
corrosion of chemical medium(including hydrochloric acid and
fumiing sulfuric acid), but can not be used for sodium hydromide
fluid. |
| Pt-Ir | Have good corrosion resistance of all acid, and can be resistance
to the corrosion of alkali, all salt except aqua regia, ammonium
slat and few other medium |
| Tungsten Carbide | For pulp and sewage, good resistance to solid particle
interference. |
