In today’s demanding industrial environments, accurate and reliable flow measurement is paramount. Valvelink is proud to introduce the IFLO series, featuring the highly efficient Electromagnetic Flow meter-compact. This advanced solution is engineered for businesses seeking precision, durability, and ease of use in measuring conductive liquids and slurries. The IFLOLD intelligent electromagnetic flow meter, a key part of this series, offers high performance and reliability for a wide array of applications.
How Electromagnetic Flow Meter – Compact Work?
The IFLOLD Electromagnetic Flow meter-compact operates based on Faraday’s Law of Electromagnetic Induction. The core of the meter, the sensor, consists of a measuring tube with an insulating lining, a pair of electrodes, and coils that generate a magnetic field. As a conductive fluid passes through this magnetic field, it induces a voltage signal directly proportional to the fluid’s average flow rate. This signal is then amplified and processed by the converter to provide various display functions and output signals.
Key Features and Benefits of the IFLOLD Electromagnetic Flow Meter-compact
Valvelink’s IFLOLD Electromagnetic Flow meter-compact is designed to deliver exceptional performance and a host of benefits for your operations:
- Unaffected by Fluid Properties: Measurements remain accurate regardless of variations in fluid density, viscosity, temperature, pressure, and conductivity (for liquids with conductivity greater than 5 μs/cm).
- Minimal Process Disruption: With no obstructing components in the measuring tube, there’s no pressure loss, and the requirements for straight pipe sections are low, allowing for flexible installation.
- User-Friendly Interface: Equipped with an LCD backlight, the converter ensures easy reading in various lighting conditions, from direct sunlight to dark rooms. For harsh environments, parameters can be set via infrared touch buttons without opening the converter cover (customizable feature).
- Versatile Measurement & Output: The system supports bidirectional measurement and includes three built-in totalizers for positive, reverse, and net total flow. It offers a range of output options, including current (4-20mA), pulse, frequency, RS-485, and HART protocol.
- Robust and Reliable: The Electromagnetic Flow meter-compact is suitable not only for general processes but also for challenging applications involving ore pulp, mud, coal slurry, paper pulp, and paste liquids. High-pressure models with PFA lining are available for demanding industries like petroleum and chemical.
- Advanced Diagnostics: The converter features self-diagnosis alarm outputs, no-load detection alarms, flow upper and lower limit alarms, and batch control capabilities (customizable).
- Compact Design Options: The IFLOLD series includes integrated models, such as those with caliber ranges from DN3 to DN3000, and specific integrated units for calibers DN6-DN100, which are inherently designed for space efficiency. Clamp-on electromagnetic flow meters also offer a compact installation footprint.
