Possible applications
Flow control of fluids, contaminated or not:
Waste water treatment
Flow control of drinking water (FDA approval)
Laundries: measurement and control of the water consumption
Swimming pools: pump protection and flow control
Food-processing industry: monitoring of the cleaning cycles (FDA approval)
Irrigation
Application with sea water: desalination, fish farms
Design
The E-shaped magnetic system inside the sensor induces a magnetic field into the fluid, which is perpendicular to the
direction of flow. Two electrodes are in galvanic contact with the liquid. Based on the Faraday law a voltage can be
measured between these electrodes once a liquid (min. conductivity of 20 µS/cm) flows along the pipe.
This voltage is proportional to the flow velocity.
Using the K-factor for the individual pipe diameter the speed of flow is converted into volume per time.
