Magnetic Flowmeters

The following articles are from  Emerson Process Management.
Installation and Grounding of Magmeters in Typical and Electrolytic Process Applications
- Proper installation and grounding of magnetic flowmeters is important for accurate, reliable measurement performance. Stray AC or DC currents through the fluid or instrument can produce noise signals that may in turn interfere with the relatively low flow signals generated in today's modern pulsed DC magmeter.
Magnetic Flowmeter Material Selection Guide -A general resource for the selection of materials for the magnetic flowmeter. One of the advantages of the electromagnetic flowmeter is that it is suitable for a wide variety of applications including severely corrosive chemicals and highly abrasive slurries. The key to this versatility is that there is a large choice of materials available for the electrodes and the flowtube liner.
