SAFETY WARNING & GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

1. Read User manual carefully and understand instructions & directions provided in this manual.

2. Installation, connections, commissioning and service shall carry out by only qualified and authorized
person.

3. To protect instrument from any external hazards, customer should take necessary care while
preparing site ready before installation.

4. Ensure proper supply voltage (230V AC) with proper polarity to the instrument, before Powering ON
instrument.

5. During calibration, follow the steps mentioned in the manual. Calibration should be done by
authorised technical person only.

6. Verify that earthing is proper.

7. The following principles should be considered during installation:


- If there is a noisy power supply voltage (especially peaks generated, usually by motors),
use an external power supply filter between the flow meter and power supply.
- Protect the flow meter and the internal lining of the sensor pipe from mechanical damage,
especially during installation or cleaning.
- Do not expose the flow meter to intense vibration.

INTRODUCTION
ELMAG-200M is micro-controller based full bore type electromagnetic flow transmitter specially used
for various industrial applications. This flow transmitters accurately measures the flow rate of conductive
liquids & slurries in closed pipes. Due to simple, rigid & obstruction less design the flow transmitter is
a maintenance free instrument in place of conventional mechanical flow measuring device. The use of
‘Pulsed DC ’ excitation technology offers highest ability & better measuring accuracy in the form of
electrical signal 4 - 20 mA DC linearly proportional to volumetric flow.
ELMAG-200M standard configuration is a sensor with transmitter integrated in one unit. It’s performance
is independent of temperature, pressure, density and viscosity of the medium. The simple design allows
easy and quick installation of the meter with unskilled personnel.
ELMAG-200M is a flanged meter available in sizes from DN 10 to DN 300. The rugged flow sensor is
constructed from completely welded construction. The sensor housing is filled with polyurethane foam
for excellent protection.
In the instrument, the sensor and the electronics form one mechanical entity. A retransmission output of
4-20 mA is provided.
Sensor: The sensor consists of metering pipe; electrodes and coils. It is accommodated in welded and a
fully encapsulated steel enclosure, filled with expanded polyurethane, to prevent it from getting exposed
to moisture and environmental conditions.
Electronics: The conditioning electronics circuitry is housed in a cast aluminium connection box. The
termination of this electronics is given in the same housing through cable glands for the required
connecting cables.
Applications:
1) Applications include measurement of flow on conducting liquids, pastes and slurries ( even highly
corrosive and abrasive) in chemical and petrochemicals, fertilizers, foodstuffs, paper, mining industries etc.
2) Monitoring water flow in cooling circuits in steel plants, power plants etc.
3) Measuring flow of clean water, effluent, sludges etc. In pollution and environmental control.
4) The isolated 4-20 mA output proportional to flow can be fed to PLCs, DCS or remote mounted indicator.
5) The electromagnetic flow meter is used for measurement of flow of conducting liquids and slurries in a
wide range on industries such as chemical, petrochemical, fertilizer, pharmaceutical, foodstuff, mining,
dairy, sugar, breweries, paper, steel etc.

Operating principle:
The flow meter is designed for electrically conductive fluids. Measurement is based on Faraday’s law
of induction, according to which a voltage is induced in an electrically conductive body, which passes
through a magnetic field.

The following expression is applicable to the voltage:


U=KxBxvxD
where:
U = induced voltage
K = an instrument constant
B = magnetic field strength
v = mean velocity
D = pipe diameter

FIG.1.

Thus the induced voltage is proportional to the mean flow velocity, when the field strength is constant.
Inside the electromagnetic flowmeter, the fluid passes through a magnetic field applied perpendicular to
the direction of flow. An electric voltage is induced by the movement of the fluid (which must have a
minimum electrical conductivity). This is proportional to the mean flow velocity and thus to the volume of
flow. The induced voltage signal is picked up by two electrodes, which are in conductive contact with
the fluid and transmitted to a signal converter for a standardized output signal.
This method of measurement offers the following advantages:
1) No pressure loss through pipe constriction or protruding parts.
2) Since the magnetic field passes through the entire flow area, the signal represents a mean value over
the pipe cross-section; therefore, only relatively short straight inlet pipes x DN from the electrode axis
are required upstream of the primary head.
3) Only the tube liner and the electrodes are in contact with the fluid.
4) Already the original signal produced is an electrical voltage, which is an exact linear function of the
mean flow velocity.
5) Measurement is independent of the flow profile and other properties of the fluid.

2) Select a pipe location which will always run full of liquid. Vertical installation with flow
from down to top assures full pipe condition.

3) For horizontal installation,the electrode axis should always be in horizontal plane.

4) Flowmeter is to be installed in such a way that flow is always in the direction pointed by
red arrow on the instrument.

5) Suitable gasketing can prevent leakages from near the flanges.

Fit gaskets ensuring Poorly aligned gaskets


proper alignment. can cause leaks and
flow errors.

6.6 Online Diagnostic Features :


6.6.1) Empty Pipe Indication:- For proper functioning of electromagnetic flow meter, flow tube should always
be completely filled, So it is important to detect whether flow tube is filled or
empty.‘Pipe Empty’ message is displayed on display whenever flow tube is empty. Output current is 4.00 mA during
empty pipe condition
.

6.6.2) Flow Over Range :- ‘Flow Over Range’ message is displayed whenever current flow rate exceeds 110%
of calibrated Range. For e.g. If Range is 0 -350.0 m³/hr, then flow meter will show
reading upto 385.0 m³/hr i. e. 110 %. If flow exceeds 385.0 m³/hr display will show ‘Flow Over Range ’ message. Ret.
output will also be 21.60 mA (max.) at 385.0 m³/hr.

6.6.3) Average Flow Rate :- This feature is used to calculate average value of flow rate over a given period of time.
It is extremely useful whenever current flow rate is fluctuating and we are required to
know what is the average flow rate over a given period of time.

Procedure for Average Flow Rate :-

3. Go to the program mode by pressing MENU
key. Now display will show 0000

with left most 0 digit blinking. Enter password as 9753 using key, to increment

value & key, to shift cursor to immediate next digit on right side.

Press key. Display will show 33421 Approximate ADC Count Blinking

6. Now Ensure that the flow in the pipeline is zero & pipe is completely filled with fluid. ( Half filled pipeline
will lead to incorrect calibration)

7. Press key, to Store Zero Flow Counts. Calibrate

8. DOS & DON'TS

General mishandling on site :-


1. Application of power supply 230 V AC at incorrect terminals like input .
2. Loose connection on terminations.
3. Incorrect calibration.

Precautions to be taken on site :-


1. Read the instruction manual carefully before installing the instrument.
2. Do the connections as per the termination details given in the manual.
3. Terminal connections should be tight.
4. Check for proper supply voltage. It should be between 90 to 260V AC.
5. During calibration, follow the steps mentioned in the manual.
6. Verify that earthing is proper.

Refer calibration procedure.

Periodical maintenance :-
The flow meter does not require any special maintenance. Dependent on the media being measured it
is recommended that approx. once a year, remove the sensor from the pipe and clean the liner. Method
of cleaning consists of removing mechanical dirt and any non-conductive coating (like oil film) from the
liner. A very dirty liner could cause inaccuracy of the measurement. Check mechanical state of the liner.
