1、 Working principle
Platinum Ray LDE electromagnetic flowmeter is a flowmeter that measures flow based on Faraday's law of electromagnetic induction.The advantages of electromagnetic flow meters are low pressure loss and a wide range of measurable flow rates. The ratio of maximum flow rate to minimum flow rate is generally above 20:1, and the industrial pipe diameter range used is wide. It can measure pipe diameters within the range of DN10~DN2000, and the output signal is linear with the measured flow rate, with high accuracy,The fluid flow rate of acid, alkali, salt solutions, water, sewage, corrosive liquids, as well as mud, slurry, pulp, etc. with a measurable conductivity of ≥ 5 μ s/cm is shown in Figure 1. Widely used in industrial sectors such as chemical, metallurgical, textile, papermaking, environmental protection, food, domestic sewage, industrial sewage, cooling water, water plants, as well as municipal management, water conservancy construction, river dredging, building water supply measurement and other fields for flow meter measurement.

2、 Principle structure
The structure of an electromagnetic flowmeter mainly consists of a measuring conduit, electrodes, housing, lining, and converterAs shown in Figure 2.
Measurement catheter: Its function is to allow the measured conductive liquid to pass through. In order to divert or short-circuit the magnetic flux when the magnetic field lines pass through the measuring conduit, the measuring conduit must be made of non-magnetic, low conductivity, low thermal conductivity, and materials with certain mechanical strength, such as non-magnetic stainless steel, fiberglass, high-strength plastic, aluminum, etc.
Electrode: Its function is to generate an induced potential signal proportional to the measured value. The electrode is generally made of non-magnetic stainless steel and is required to be flush with the lining so that fluid can pass through without obstruction. Its installation position should be in the vertical direction of the pipeline to prevent sediment from accumulating on it and affecting measurement accuracy.
Shell: Made of ferromagnetic material, it is the outer shell of the distribution system excitation coil and isolates the interference of external magnetic fields.
Lining: There is a complete layer of electrical insulation lining on the inner side of the measuring conduit and the flange sealing surface. It directly contacts the liquid being measured, and its function is to increase the corrosion resistance of the measuring conduit and prevent the induced potential from being short circuited by the metal measuring conduit wall. The lining materials are mostly corrosion-resistant, high-temperature resistant, wear-resistant polytetrafluoroethylene plastics, ceramics, etc.
Converter: The induced potential signal generated by liquid flow is very weak and greatly affected by various interference factors. The function of the converter is to amplify and convert the induced potential signal into a unified standard signal and suppress the main interference signal. Its task is to amplify and convert the induced potential signal Ex detected by the electrode into a unified standard DC signal.
