Proper installation is crucial for achieving accurate and reliable readings from electromagnetic flow meters. Even high-quality meters can provide poor results if not installed correctly. Key factors include proper grounding, pipeline condition, meter placement, and adherence to manufacturer guidelines.
Installation Methods:
𝟭. 𝗜𝗻-𝗟𝗶𝗻𝗲 𝗜𝗻𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 – involves integrating the electromagnetic flow meter directly into the pipeline – replacing a section of the pipe. One example for this is the FMG480 Series Magmeter.
Pros:
• High accuracy and reliability
• No extra fittings needed
• Low maintenance once installed
Cons:
• Requires system shutdown for installation/removal
• Costly for retrofitting existing systems
𝟮. 𝗛𝗼𝘁-𝗧𝗮𝗽 𝗜𝗻𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 – a specialized method that allows an electromagnetic flow meter to be inserted into a pressurized pipeline without the need for system shutdown. An example for this is the Series-IEF Electromagnetic Flow Transmitter.
Pros:
• No need to shut down operations
• Suitable for large or pressurized pipes
• Cost-effective for retrofits
Cons:
• Slightly less accurate than in-line methods
• Requires careful drilling and sealing
