Insertion electromagnetic flow meters are point-measurement flow meters for conductive liquids, belonging to one type of electromagnetic flow meter structure. Inserted into the measuring pipe, the sensor has two electrodes that collect signals and detect the flow rate data of the fluid within the pipe. Insertion electromagnetic flow meters are relatively inexpensive, making them ideal for large-diameter pipelines. They are also easy to install and maintain. Insertion electromagnetic flow meters are high-accuracy flow meters with a wide range of applications and many significant advantages. Due to their numerous advantages, insertion electromagnetic flow meters are widely used in chemical, fertilizer, sewage treatment, water supply plants, papermaking, environmental protection, metallurgy, pharmaceutical, and other industrial sectors, as well as in agricultural irrigation water metering for the measurement of conductive liquid flow and the automation control of production processes
1. High-Precision Measurement
Insertion electromagnetic flow meters are based on Faraday's law of electromagnetic induction. By measuring the electromotive force induced in a magnetic field by the conductive liquid, they can accurately calculate the fluid velocity and flow rate. Their measurement accuracy is extremely high and unaffected by changes in fluid density, temperature, pressure, viscosity, and conductivity, thus ensuring measurement accuracy in various complex environments. 2. High Reliability
This flow meter has no moving parts, resulting in a long lifespan and low maintenance requirements. Its sensor utilizes advanced manufacturing processes, solid-state packaging, vibration resistance, and anti-permeability, further enhancing the instrument's reliability and stability. This high-reliability design makes the insertion electromagnetic flow meter particularly suitable for applications requiring long-term stable operation.
3. Wide Adaptability
The insertion electromagnetic flow meter can adapt to different pipe sizes and materials, with a wide nominal diameter range, suitable for all pipe diameters from DN100 to DN3000. It is also insensitive to air bubbles or particles in the pipe, enabling reliable operation in various complex environments. Furthermore, its diverse output options (including analog signals, digital communication interfaces, and switch outputs) meet the needs of different application scenarios.
4. Easy Installation and Maintenance
The installation and maintenance of the insertion electromagnetic flow meter are relatively simple. It can be installed without stopping the water flow, and can also be installed on-site through openings in old pipes such as cast iron pipes and cement pipes. This highly reliable external insertion installation method avoids the cumbersome process of disassembling the measuring tube, bringing great convenience to users.
5. High Cost-Effectiveness
Compared to pipe-type electromagnetic flow meters, insertion electromagnetic flow meters are simpler to install and maintain, and offer extremely high cost-effectiveness. This has led to their widespread application in petroleum, chemical, metallurgical, textile, food, environmental protection, and water conservancy construction industries.
6. Intelligent and Remote Monitoring
With the development of IoT technology, some advanced insertion electromagnetic flow meters also possess powerful self-diagnostic functions and remote monitoring capabilities. They can monitor battery level, empty pipe, excitation disconnection, signal disconnection, and other statuses in real time, and automatically upload alarm information to a server. Furthermore, some flow meters support Bluetooth modules and remote meter reading functions, allowing users to remotely set parameters, upgrade, and supplement data via mobile phones or industrial control systems.
7. Energy Saving, Emission Reduction, and Environmental Protection
In digital transformation, energy saving, emission reduction, and environmental protection are among the important goals. Insertion electromagnetic flow meters play a crucial role in energy metering and environmental protection. They can be used to monitor and control the flow rate of various liquids, ensuring the stability of production processes and product quality. Meanwhile, in municipal water supply and wastewater treatment processes, this flow meter helps monitor flow changes, ensuring water quality and environmental protection.
In summary, insertion electromagnetic flow meters, with their advantages of high accuracy, high reliability, wide adaptability, easy installation and maintenance, cost-effectiveness, and intelligent and remote monitoring capabilities, play a vital role in digital transformation. With continuous technological advancements and expanding application areas, insertion electromagnetic flow meters will continue to play an increasingly important role in flow monitoring.
