RBEF Electromagnetic Flow Energy meter(Magmeter) is often referred to as magmeters or magnetic flow meters, are widely used in a diverse range of industries including the food industry, water supply, sewage treatment, and chemical industry. These instruments provide accurate and reliable measurements of fluid flow, making them essential for many applications.

At the heart of an electromagnetic flow meter is a principle known as Faraday's Law of Electromagnetic Induction. This law states that when a conductor, such as a conductive fluid, moves through a magnetic field, a voltage is induced across the conductor that is proportional to the velocity of the fluid. By measuring this induced voltage, the flow rate can be determined.

One of the key advantages of electromagnetic flow meters is their ability to measure flow rates in conductive fluids without any moving parts. This absence of moving parts makes them highly reliable and virtually maintenance-free. It also means that they have a lower risk of wear and tear, resulting in a longer lifespan compared to other types of flow meters.

 A various type Magnetic Flow meters(Liquid flow meter) can provide as follows:

  •  Standard Electromagnetic flow meters are for most of water and wastewater applications.
  • Wafer Type Ceramic liner Magnetic Flow Meter for Highly resistant Magmeter liner and electrodes that are suitable for most extreme process media, pipe size is from DN25 to DN200.
  • Sanitary Tri -clamp Type Magnetic Flowmeters are designed for the food(milk filling) & beverage and pharmaceutical industries and is available with hygienic and flexible process connections, pipe size is from DN10 to DN150.
  • High frequency Emag flow meter for Slurry and High Percentage of Solids, etc.

Principle


Faraday’s law of electromagnetic induction states that an inductive voltage is generated when a conductor moves through a magnetic field. This principle is used as the basis of flow measurement in the RBEF electromagnetic flow meter.  In the electromagnetic flow meter, the flowing fluid corresponds to the moving conductor as described in Faraday’s law.

 UE ∞ B * D * v

The induced voltage UE is directly proportional to magnetic field intensity (B), electrode spacing (D) and average fluid velocity (v). Since magnetic field intensity (B) and the electrode spacing (D) are constant values, induced voltage UE is therefore directly proportional to the average flow velocity (v).

Q = (∏ * D2) / 4 * v     therefore    UE ∞ Q

The equation for calculating volumetric flow rate (Q) shows that the induced voltage (UE) is linear and directly proportional to the average velocity (v).  In the  flowmeter transmitter, the induced voltage (UE) from the electrodes is used to calculate volumetric flow rate (Q) based upon the pipe’s internal diameter.

UE = Induced voltage

B = Magnetic field strength

D = Electrode spacing

V = Fluid velocity

Q = Instantaneous volumetric flow rate
