What is a Krohne meter?

The Krohne OptiFlux is an electromagnetic flow meter (EMF) for standard water and wastewater applications. The meter features a wide range of approvals necessary for potable water measurement. A full on-site verification of the meter without process interruption can be carried out using the OptiCheck service tool.

What is flowmeter sensor?

A flow meter (or flow sensor) is an instrument used to measure linear, nonlinear, mass or volumetric flow rate of a liquid or a gas.

How do you calibrate a Krohne magnetic flow meter?

Calibration takes place with water at flow rates up to 575 m³/h using electromagnetic flowmeters. Long inlet runs in front of the meter under test and specially fabricated inlet runs for the references guarantee precise measuring conditions with long-term stability.

What is the principle of operation of electromagnetic flow meters?

Magnetic flow meters works based on Faraday’s Law of Electromagnetic Induction. According to this principle, when a conductive medium passes through a magnetic field B, a voltage E is generated which is proportional to the velocity v of the medium, the density of the magnetic field and the length of the conductor.

What are the application of flow sensor?

A: Flow meters are devices used to measure the flow rate of gas, liquid or steam flowing through a pipe. There are many diverse applications that require mass flow measurement, such as natural gas, compressed air, boiler efficiency, burner control, gas mixing & blending, steam flow, and water flow.

What is the function of flow sensor?

Flow sensors are used to measure the flow rate of blood or oxygen through a vessel. Implantable flow sensors are commonly incorporated into a flexible cuff (Fig. 20.10) that is fitted around the vessel whose flow rate is to be measured.

How do you calibrate a flow meter?

Master Meter Calibration Procedures

Place the master meter in series with the flow meter under test.
Compare the readings of the master flow meter and flow meter using a measured volume of liquid.
Calibrate the flowmeter under test to conform with the master flow meter calibration.

How do you calibrate a magnetic flow meter?

The flowmeter calibration procedure involves the diversion of the fluid onto a mass comparator over a given timescale, where the basic mass flow rate measurement is derived by mass over time calculation. This is a simple process often referred to as the bucket and stopwatch method.
