KOBOLD Instruments MIK-5VAU2 MIK Magneto Inductive Flow Meter, PPS/FKM/SS Electrodes, 2.4-48.0 GPH
Description
The KOBOLD MIK flow meter is used for measuring and monitoring small to medium-sized flows of conductive liquids in pipes. The sensor operates according to the electromagnetic measurement principle. According to Faraday's Law of magnetic induction, a voltage is induced in a conductor moving through a magnetic field. The electrically conductive media acts as the conductor. The voltage induced in the media is proportional to the flow velocity and is therefore a value for the volumetric flow. The media must have a minimum conductivity of 30 ?S/cm (200 ?S /cm for U0 & U1 ranges) for proper operation. The induced voltage is picked up by two sensing electrodes which are in contact with the media and sent to the measuring amplifier. The flow rate will be calculated based on the cross sectional area of the pipe.
The measurement is not dependent on the process liquid and its material properties such as density, viscosity, and temperature. The device may be equipped with a switch, frequency, or analog output. Moreover, there is a compact electronic option, which contains a switch and an analog output. The sensor series is completed by an optional batching or totalizer electronic option. The totalizer electronic option displays the current flow rate on the first line of the display and shows the partial or grand total volume on the second. A batching electronic controls simple filling duties and also measures the flow rate, grand total volume, and filling volume. The analog output and two relay outputs can be utilized for the further processing.
