Krohne has introduced the new IFC 050 signal converter for electromagnetic flowmeters. Developed for growing water markets worldwide, the IFC 050 is designed to fit in any basic water or wastewater application. It can be combined with the Optiflux and Waterflux series of electromagnetic flow sensors. Together with the Optiflux 1000, 2000 and Waterflux 3000 sensors, it can be used for raw water, potable water, waste water and sea water. Examples include water harvesting and purification plants, sewage and desalination plants. In addition its features match metering or leak detection functions in water distribution networks, agriculture, or utility applications such as sprinkler, irrigation, cooling or firefighting systems.
To suit the requirements of these applications, the IFC 050 outputs reach from 4–20 mA HART. This is an active pulse output for driving, for example, an electromechanical counter up to an RS-485 Modbus output for communication with microcontrollers and PLCs. As an option, the signal converter can be equipped with all three outputs.
The IFC 050 features a sturdy and robust construction – the shockproof aluminium housing is finished with a protective double layer paint that withstands salty atmospheres. It has an extra coating to protect against condensed moisture for use in tropical areas, for example. For convenient operation, the IFC 050 can be ordered as a wall-mounted or a compact version. As an alternative to the display version, the blind version can be used for applications where the menu needs to be approached only once at a time and a permanent display is not required.
