Remote Type Liquid Electronic Magnetic Flow Meter With RS485 / Hart
1. Introduction
The MLF electromagnetic flowmeter works according to Faraday's law
of electromagnetic induction and consists of a sensor and a
converter. Used to measure the conductivity of liquids or solids.
Under normal circumstances, its conductivity should be greater than
5μS/cm (the conductivity of tap water and raw water is about
100-500μS/cm), and it can also be used to measure acids, alkali,
brine, pulp or pulp and other media. But these media cannot contain
a lot of magnetic substances and bubbles.
MLF electromagnetic flowmeter is an instrument for measuring liquid
fluidity. It is widely used in flow measurement in metallurgy,
chemical industry, paper making, environmental protection,
petroleum, textile, food, urban management, water plant and other
industries.
2. Features
The MLF electromagnetic flow meter is for explosive proof design.
It has the function of low conductivity measurement.
It has Chinese, English, Korean, Polish, Turkish, French and Portuguese
languages languages for option to satisfy different customers’ requirements.
It has the function of self-adjustment and self-checking.
A variety of outputs are optional:Hart, RS485, Profibus, 4-20mA,
Frequency, Pulse.

7. Instrument Detection & Maintenance
The electromagnetic flowmeter has a self-diagnostic function. In
addition to power supply and hardware circuit failures, the system
also alarms other failures in general use. These messages will give
corresponding prompts in the lower right corner of the screen.
1 Maintenance and repair
a) The sensor installation site should meet the requirements of
Section 4, please keep the housing tidy;
b) The transmitter should be placed in a clean, ventilated and dry
place;
c) It needs to be inspected every two years. For high-precision
users, the instrument needs to be submitted for review.
2 Transportation and storage
a) The instrument must be packaged before transportation, and be
handled with care when loading and unloading.
b) The storage place must be dry and ventilated to avoid corrosive
gases, and the ambient temperature should not be too low or too
high;
c) The storage time should not exceed three years.
3. Unpacking inspection
a) The package cannot be opened with a heavy hammer, be careful not
to damage the instrument
b) Check the contents carefully according to the packing list.
