Partially-filled Pipes6” to 24”

(150 to 600 mm )

Introduction

The LF502 electromagnetic flowmeter uses Faraday’s Law of electromagnetic induction in the same way as conventional electromagnetic flowmeters to measure the flow rate. Position of electrodes in the LF502 is so designed that it can be used even in a partially-filled pipe to measure the flow rate.

Improved functional magnetic field distribution technique enables a high-precision flow measurement continually from low-level to fully-filled flow conditions. This eliminates unnecessary piping work such as lifting the downstream pipe section to fill the detector pipe.

Compared with flowmeters measuring the flow rate by means of flow level, the obstruction less LF502 flowmeter does not usually allow mud, sands and other solid sediment stay at the bottom of the detector pipe and is unaffected by wave or floating solids on the fluid surface.

The AF900 hand-held terminal (HART*1 communicator) can be used to communicate with the
