Magmeter Flow Sensor – Overview

This insertion magnetic flow sensor features no moving parts. It is available in corrosion-resistant materials to provide long-term reliability with minimal maintenance costs. Material options include PP with stainless steel, PVDF with stainless steel, PVDF with Hastelloy-C, or PVDF with Titanium. These versatile, simple-to-install sensors deliver accurate flow measurements for a wide range of pipe sizes ranging from DN15 to DN900 (½ to 36 inches), making them suitable for various applications. These Magmeters offer frequency/digital (S3L) or 4 to 20 mA output options. Both are available on the blind and display versions. The frequency or digital (S3L) sensor output can be used with Georg Fischer’s extensive line of flow instruments while the 4 to 20 mA output can be used for direct input to PLCs, chart recorders, etc. Both the 4 to 20 mA output and the digital (S3L) sensor interface are available for long-distance signal transmission. An additional benefit is the empty pipe detection which features a zero flow output when the sensors are not completely wetted. Also, the frequency output is bi-directional and can be set using the 4 to 20 mA output, using the display, or the 3-0250 USB to Digital (S3L) set-up tool. The display version is available with relays and features permanent and re-settable total values which can be seen on the display. The display contains multi-language options such as English, Spanish, German, French, Italian and Portuguese.
