Electromagnetic Flow Meter Working Principle:
The working principle of an electromagnetic flow meter is based on Faraday’s Law of Electromagnetic Induction. According to this principle, when a conductive liquid flows through a magnetic field, it generates a voltage proportional to the flow velocity.
Here’s a breakdown of the process:
- Magnetic Field Generation: The electromagnetic flow meter generates a magnetic field using coils located on either side of the flow tube.
- Voltage Induction: As the conductive liquid flows through the magnetic field, it induces a voltage.
- Electrode Detection: Electrodes placed inside the flow tube detect this induced voltage.
- Signal Processing: The induced voltage is directly proportional to the flow rate, and the signal is processed by the evaluation unit to determine the flow rate.
This method ensures accurate measurement of the flow rate without any moving parts, making it highly reliable and maintenance-free.
Applications of the Electromagnetic Flow Meter across Industries:
The FLOW 33 electromagnetic flow meter is versatile and can be used across various industries, including:
