Insertion Electromagnetic Flow Sensor

The Series EFS2 InsertionElectromagnetic Flow Sensor is designed for pipe sizes

from 1 to 12˝ and comes inthree different materials (stainless steel, brass and PVC). There are a varietyof custom fittings to choose from to ensure accurate fitting in the pipe. TheSeries EFS2 is useful for any applications where moving parts would be aproblem, such as dirty liquids. It can handle applications where there are rapidchanges in viscosity and flow. Other applications include small pipes andchemical metering pumps.

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION

The EFS2 is a liquid flow meterthat uses the conductivity of fluids to measure flow rate. Liquid flow throughits magnetic field produces a voltage that is measured and translated into anoutput signal. It has a pulse frequency output which can be used with the SeriesRTI to indicate flow rate and total, as well as the Series BAT signal converterwhich provides an analog signal.

APPLICATIONS

• Industrial Process

• Chemical Metering Pumps

• Fertigation

ACCESSORIES

• Series BAT, Blind AnalogTransmitter, converts pulse output to 4 to 20 mA analog output. Unit is looppowered, fits on the enclosure of the meter, and is fields spannable.

• Series RTI, Rate TotalIndicator, converts pulse output to 4 to 20 mA analog output with local flowrate and totalization display. Unit is loop powered, fits on the enclosure ofthe meter, and provides a high/low flow alarm.

• Series PWD, Pulse Divider,for use with pacing electronic metering pumps. Unit divides the input frequencyto any number from 1 to 9999 with the use of rotary switches to suit a number ofmetering pump inputs.
