Flow Measurement & Control


Electromagnetic flowmeter

October 2018 Flow Measurement & Control

Kobold’s new model EPS electromagnetic flowmeter has a standard accuracy of ±0,3% of reading stability of zero. The new developed, microprocessor-controlled UMF2 converter guarantees highest accuracy and is easy to operate via its alphanumeric backlit LCD terminal with six keys, plain text response and plausibility check of entries. Empty-pipe detection, coil current monitoring and plain text error messages guarantee full control over sensor and measuring point at any time. Pulse, status and current outputs, as well as HART communication, are standard features, all of which are electrically isolated. Lining materials, such as hard rubber, soft rubber, EPDM, ceramic, PTFE or PFA, are available. A wide range of standard and special electrode materials are on offer, including stainless steel, Hastelloy, platinum, titanium and tantalum. The EPS is available for nominal diameter from DN10 ... DN1200 and flow velocities up to 10 m/s.

The main features of the EPS are:

• High accuracy: 0,3% of actual.

• Maintenance-free.

• No pressure drop.

• Numerous lining materials.

• Numerous electrode materials.

• Low-cost grounding electrode instead of earthing rings.

The EPS is used to measure the volume flow of liquids, slurries, pastes and other electrically conductive media without any pressure drop. Pressure, temperature, density and viscosity do not affect the volume measurements. However, solid particles and small gas bubbles should be avoided.
