Magnetic Inductive Flow Meter
Type: EPS
Inline design with various options
The magnetic-inductive flow sensor EPS is used to measure the volume flow of liquids, slurries, pastes and other electrically conductive media without any pressure drop. Pressure, temperature, density and viscosity do not affect the volume measurements.
Details
Applications
Volume flow measurement of electrically conductive liquids, slurries and pastes without loss of pressure.In an industrial context, factor in the following elements when utilizing the magnetic inductive flow sensor in an inline design:.
- In the chemical and petrochemical industry: magnetic inductive flow sensors are used to monitor the flow of various liquid chemicals within the manufacturing processes. Examples include the transportation of acids, bases, solvents, and other chemicals through pipelines. The chemical and petrochemical industries often deal with corrosive fluids. Magnetic inductive flow sensors with corrosion-resistant materials, such as certain stainless steels or specialized coatings, are chosen to withstand the corrosive environment.
- In the oil and gas industry: magnetic inductive flow sensors are employed to measure the flow rates of hydrocarbons such as crude oil, natural gas liquids (NGLs), and refined products within pipelines. In industrial facilities within the oil and gas sector, these sensors can be used to monitor the consumption of fuels and gases, aiding in efficiency and cost management.
- In the food industry: magnetic inductive flow sensors are used to measure the flow rates of liquids in beverage production, including water, juices, soft drinks, and other liquid ingredients. In food processing lines, especially those involving the mixing of liquid ingredients, these sensors help control the flow rates for accurate recipe adherence.
- Pharmaceutical manufacturing often involves the use of purified water. These sensors are employed to measure and monitor the flow of purified water in pharmaceutical processes. These sensors are utilized in dosing and filling applications where accurate measurement and control of liquid volumes are essential for pharmaceutical product consistency.
