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.
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.

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.
