Introduction to the PIT Magnetic Inductive Flow Meter

The PIT Magnetic Inductive Flow Meter represents the pinnacle of precision and reliability in flow measurement technology. The PIT flow meter is designed to measure the flow of electrically conductive liquids, slurries, and pastes. It uses advanced magnetic inductive principles to give accurate and consistent readings in a wide range of industrial settings. Its innovative insertion probe design sets it apart from conventional flow meters by offering a more flexible, cost-effective, and maintenance-friendly solution for flow measurement needs.

The PIT Magnetic Inductive Flow Meter operates on the principle of Faraday’s Law of Electromagnetic Induction. According to this principle, a voltage is induced when a conductive fluid passes through a magnetic field. Here’s how the process works:

•  Magnetic Field Generation: The PIT flow meter generates a stable magnetic field across the section of the pipeline where the tool is inserted. This     magnetic field is crucial for starting the measurement process.

• Fluid Interaction: As the conductive fluid flows through the pipeline and passes through the magnetic field, it disrupts the field, inducing a voltage proportional to the velocity of the fluid.
• Voltage Detection: Electrodes within the tool detect the induced voltage. The magnitude of this voltage directly corresponds to the speed of the fluid passing through the magnetic field.
• Signal processing: The flow meter’s integrated electronics then process and convert the detected voltage into a flow rate reading. The final output can be displayed locally or transmitted to a remote monitoring system, depending on the application requirements.

This method of measurement is highly accurate and does not hamper the flow of the fluid, making it ideal for processes where maintaining flow integrity and minimizing pressure loss are crucial.

The PIT Magnetic Inductive Flow Meter is designed to be both robust and versatile, suitable for a wide range of industrial environments. Key components of the equipment include:

• Insertion Probe: The central component of the PIT flow meter, the insertion tool, is designed to be installed through a weld-in socket on the side of the pipeline. This design minimizes the need for extensive pipeline modifications, making installation easier and more cost-effective.
• Electronics Housing: The electronics of the flow meter are contained within a sturdy and weatherproof housing, which shields the delicate components from the effects of the environment. This housing is equipped with user-friendly interfaces that facilitate effortless setup and configuration.
• Magnetic Field Coils: The coils responsible for generating the magnetic field are engineered for stability and consistency, ensuring accurate measurements regardless of external conditions.
• Electrodes: By using the raw data that electrodes placed inside the tester provide and being able to detect the induced voltage, it is possible to calculate the flow rate.

• Chemical and Petrochemical Industry: Used for monitoring the flow of chemicals and petrochemicals, ensuring efficient process control and optimization
• Oil and Gas Industry: Ideal for measuring the flow of hydrocarbons in large-diameter pipelines, both onshore and offshore, providing critical data for reservoir management and process optimization.
• Food and Beverage Industry: Ensures accurate measurement of liquid ingredients in food and beverage production, maintaining product consistency and quality.
• Pharmaceutical Industry: Essential for precise dosing and mixing of liquid ingredients in pharmaceutical production, supporting regulatory compliance and product efficacy.
