IMPORTANT
Improper grounding may result in an adverse effect
on the ow measurement. Ensure that the product is
properly grounded.
The electromotive force of the magnetic owmeter
is minute and it is easily affected by noise, and the
reference electric potential is the same as that of the
measuring uid. Therefore, the reference electric
potential (terminal potential) of the sensor and transmitter
also need to be the same as that of the measuring uid.
Moreover, the potential must be the same as the ground.
The magnetic owmeter is equipped with an grounding
ring that makes a connection with the charge of the
measured uid for grounding and protects the lining.
Grounding rings are supplied with the products when
specied with dedicated optional code.
Grounding Resistance: 10 Ω or less (Class C requirements)
Note:
When lightning protection performance by the built-in lightning
protectors is not required, grounding resistance 100 Ω or less
(Class D requirements) can be applied.

CAUTION
•
The grounding should satisfy grounding resistance
requirement, 100 Ω or less (Class D grounding).
•
For explosion protection type, the grounding must
satisfy the domestic electrical requirements as
regulated in each country.
