Battery Magnetic Water Meter

RBEFB-W Electromagnetic water flow meters are based on electromagnetic flow (EMF) technology and provide measurement of a wide flow range.Special for Irrigation Magmeters.

RBEFB Series battery-powered electromagnetic flowmeter converter is specifically designed for water resources and industries. It is widely used in the cases without power supply, such as: city water supply, sewage treatment, water conservancy, water administration and water resources industries. It can reach accuracy of 1.0, 0.5 or 0.2 when working with ordinary electromagnetic flowmeter sensors. The RBEFB Series battery-powered electromagnetic flow converter is generally equipped with a set of four lithium batteries typically lasting 3 - 6 years. Longer running life can be obtained if more battery set is used.

Micro-power 16-bit embedded processor was implemented to generate the sensor excitation circuit and manage the lithium battery power efficiently. It features full digital signal processing, measurement stability, high measurement accuracy and anti-interference capability. The converter supplies automatic bi-directional flow measurement, self-diagnosis and system fault alarm. The measurement data can be transmitted through the powerful GSM / GPRS remote management software system to achieve the flow data storage, analysis and other functions remotely.

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
