Compact and flexible – Gemü 3030 mFlow

September 2015 Flow Measurement & Control

The Gemü 3030 mFlow operates reliably with conducting media in the temperature range of 0 – 135°C with a supply voltage of 24 VDC and an automatic adaptation of the measuring range (0-4 m/s or 0-10 m/s). The ambient temperature should not exceed 60°C or fall below 0°C.

The magnetically inductive flowmeter can be used up to a maximum operating pressure of 10 bar, as thanks to the low installation depth of the sensor, there is only a negligible loss in pressure. Flow velocities of 0,1-10 m/s are measured independent of process pressure, temperature and viscosity.

Simple connection to the plant control system

The system is connected electrically using standard connectors which are fitted to the back of the flowmeter (5-pin M12 connectors) making it easy to connect electrically without opening the housing.

The Gemü 3030 mFlow can be optimally integrated in fully automatic plant control systems using standard signals (analogue output 4-20 mA and pulse output 24 VDC) to transmit the flow rate to higher-level plant systems and interfaces such as the RS-232 and Profibus DP. Status information, error messages and the operating range can be displayed via two visual indicators, which also indicate the status of the Profibus connection.

Fast and uncomplicated commissioning

In addition to the uncomplicated and fast installation of the Gemü 3030 mFlow, commissioning is simple, with versatile operating facilities, for example using the fascia buttons with illuminated display, PC connection with Internet browser and fieldbus interfaces. No special software is required for browser operation, as this is already integrated in the device.
