3.Operation Theory and Structural Characteristics
3.1 Operation Theory
Electromagnetic flowmeter is based on Faraday’s law of eletromagnetic induction. The measuring
pipe is a non-magnetic-conductive alloy short pipe with a inside-liner of insulated materials. Along
the pipeline the two electrodes perforate the pipe and are fixed on the measuring pipe.The head of
the electrodes is basically paralleled with inner surface of the liner. When the coils of the excitation
impulse the excitation from square-wave of two sides, a working magnetic field with magnetic flux
density B generates in the direction vertical with the measuring pipeline. At this time if the flux with
specific electro-conductivity flows through the measuring pipe, the line of magnetic force will induct
electromotive force E. Electromotive force E is in positive proportion to magnetic flux B, the product
of the inside diameter d of measuring pipe and average flow velocity v, electromotive force E( signal of
the flow) is examined by electrodes and sent through cable to transducer. After the transducer magnifies
the signal of flow, the flow rate of flux is displayed, and the pulse and analog current which are used to
control and regulate the flow rate are output.

-3-
B

E=KBdV
In the equation: E ---- signal voltage of interelectrodes(v) EBdv

B----density of magnetic flux(T)


d---- inner diameter of measuring pipe(m)
V ---- average flow velocity(m/s)

In the equation, d is a constant. Because the excitation current is constant B is also a constant.
We can know from E = KBdV that flow rate of volume Q is in positive proportion to signal voltage
E, that is, signal voltage of flow rate induction E is in linear relation to flow rate of volumn Q. So if
only E is measured flow rate Q can be defined. This is the basic operating principle of electromagnetic
flowmeter.
From E = KBdV we can know that the temperature of the measured flux medium, density, pressure,
electro-conductivity and the liquid-solid proportion of the liquid-solid mixed flux medium will not
affect the result of the measurement. To moving condition if only it accords with the flow of axial
symmetry (such as laminar flow) it will not affect the result of the measurement. So we say that
electromagnetic flowmeter is a genuine flowmeter of volume. On the part of the manufacturer and
users, if only practically demarcate with average water can the flow of volume of any other conductive
flux medium be measured, without any modification. This is a prominent merit of electromagnetic
flowmeter while any other flowmeter doesn’t possess. In the measuring pipe there’s no active and
choking parts, therefore there’s nearly no loss of pressure, and the reliability is very high.
3.2 Structure of Sensor
Electromagnetic flowmeter has compact structure and short connecting size. Its liner and electrode
materials fit for many kinds of liquids and serosity serums. Because it uses square-wave impulse
excitation, the wattage dissipation of the whole machine and zero are stable and have high reliability.
The main constitutions of sensor are measuring pipe, electrode, excitation loop, magnetic yoke and
shell body; remote type flowmeter has additionally single wiring box.
The sensor with rubber and polyurethane liners is intrinsically sinking structure. If the sensor sinks
to submarine or is installed at the place where easy to be flooded by water, after the finish of site
wiring and right definition, the wiring box needs to be blocked up with seal sticky, and should double
seam according to the random use instruction of seal sticky.

5.6 Earthing of Sensors


To ensure the reliable work of the instrument, improve the measuring accuracy and not be disturbed
by outside parasitic electric potential, sensorsr should bear good independent earth line. Earthing
resistance<10Ω.If the pipe connecting sensor is covered with insulating barrier or nonmetallic pipe,
earthing loop should be added at both sides of sensors.
a. Ways of earthing on metal pipe : The internal of metal pipe has no insulating barrier

Sectional Area of
Copper Core 6mm2

Measuring Earthing<10Ω

Mounting of Sensor in Metallic Pipeling (inner wall has no insulating layer)

b. Ways of earthing on plastic pipe or insulant paint pipe: earthing loop should be added on both
surfaces of sensors to make the moving measured mediums in the pipe connect with ground with zero
electric potential. Otherwise electromagnetic flowmeters cannot work normally.

Detecting Electrode

Earthing Electrode

Remarks:If there's earthing electroed in sensor then no


need foradding earthing ring,Role of earting electrode
Mounting of sensor on plastic pipeline or pipeline with insulating layer or paint is the same sa that of earthing ring.

5.7 Installation of Sensors on Protectional Pipe in Negative Pole


The pipe protecting electrolysis from eroding usually is insulant on both inside and outside. So the
measured medium has no earth electric potential. Therefore the sensors must use earthing loop.
To the pipe bearing the protection of erosion-proof, the sensor and connecting pipe at two sides are
usually insulant. Therefore the medium is not conductional with earth. The following points must be
given attention when the installation is performed.

-9-
a. Earthing loop is installed on the two surfaces of sensors. They must be insulant with flange of craft
pipe and connect the sensor through earth line2. The materials of earthing loop should bear the erosion
of mediums. The standard material that the manufacturer provides is stainless steel.( 1Cr18Ni9Ti ).
b. Flange of craft pipe at two sides of the instrumentation should be connected with the sensor circled
by the copper wire whose cross-sectional area is 4mm2 to make the protectional potential in the
nagative pole isolate with the sensor. Pay attention not to connecting to the sensor.
Flange connects with the blot and must be insulated with the flange of craft pipe. Users themselves
must prepare the liner bushing and cushion ring made of insulant materials.

Attention at Transportion

5.9 Points for Attention in Terms of the Installation of Flowmeters


a. The installation size must be computed accurately, otherwise easily revealed or unable to install.
b.The flow direction of the flux must keep in accordance with the arrow of flow direction.
c. The axis of electrodes of flowmeters must be approximately horizontal, otherwise the measuring

-10-
accuracy will be affected.
d. The flange at two sides of the sensor must keep parallel otherwise be easily revealed.
e. To avoid forming whirlpool and flowing, the craft pipe, the seal piece and flowmeter must share
the same axis and cannot be staggered.
f. When installing the flowmeter, it is prohibited that the electric welding works near the flange of
the flowmeter. Lest that the liner of the flowmeter be burned.
g. To craft pipes of different natures the corresponding ways of ground connection should be applied.
h. To those mediums with a nature of erosion, it is better to install them vertically and the measured
medium flows from down to up. By doing so can avoid the solid pellets from depositing in the pipe of
the flowmeter, make the erosion of the liner even and prolong the use life.
For those measuring pipes whose caliber is more than 200mm to make the installation convenient,
telescopic heads can be applied.

Shielding wire connected to “Signal Ground”
7.4 Characteristic and Connection of Cable
7.4.1 Signal Line of Flowrate
For remote (detachable) type flowmeter, in case the electro-conductivity of measured fluid is more than
50μS/cm the flowrate signal transporting cable may use shielding signal cable with model PVVP 2*0.2 mm2
The length should be no more than 100m. Signal cables have to be connected to sensors before dispatch.
Connections of signal cables are shown in Fig.7.3 (b) for square meter and Fig.7.3 (d) for round meter.

-15-
The transducer provided equal potential excitation shielding signal output voltage to decrease the
effect of distributed capacitance transmitted by cable to the measurement of flowrate signal. When the
measured electro-conductivity is less than 50μS/cm of long-distance transmission you can use bi-core
and bi-shielding signal cable with equal potential shielding. For instance, STT3200 exclusive cable or
BTS type tri-shielding signal cable.
7.4.2 Excitation Current Wire
Excitation current wire can use soft two-core insulating rubber cable wire, suggesting Model
RVVP2*0.3mm 2. The length of excitation current wire is the same as that of signal cable. When using
STT3200 exclusive cable the excitation cable and signal cable combined as one whole.
7.4.3 Output and Power Line
All output and power line are prepared by user according to practical conditions. But attention must
be given to meet the needs of loading current.
Attention: when DIP switch next to terminal is set to ON, the side transducer provided 28V power
supply and 10 KΩ up-pulling resistance to isolated OC gate frequency output (PUL+, PUL-), Alarm
Output (ALM+.ALM-), and Status Control(INSW). Therefore, when using frequency output together
with sensor to test, DIP switch may be set to ON; leading out frequency signal from PUL+ and PCOM
terminals.
Pulse current output and alarm current output external power supply and load. See Fig.7.4 (a). When
using sensitive load, stream-continuous diode as shown in the figure should be added.

7.4.4 Grounding
Earthing terminal PE should be grounding copper wire with diameter not less than 1.6mm2 to connect
with the earth. Earthing resistance from housing of transducer to earth should be less than 10Ω.
7.5 Output of Digital Quantity
Digital output refers to frequency output and pulse output. Frequency output and pulse output use the
same output point on wiring. Therefore, users cannot choose both frequency output and pulse output at
the same time but either of them.
7.5.1 Frequency Output
Frequency output range: 0~5000HZ. Frequency output corresponds with flow percentage,
Measure value
F = Full scale value ·Frequency Range

Upper limit of frequency output is adjustable. User may choose from 0 to 5000 Hz, or a little lower
one, such as 0 to 1000 Hz or 0 to 5000 Hz, etc.
Frequency output mode is generally used for controlling purpose because it affects percentage flow
rate; if for measurement purpose then select pulse output mode.
7.5.2. Pulse Output
Pulse output mode is mainly used for measurement; output one pulse, represents one equivalent flow
rate, such as 1L or 1M3, etc.
Pulse output equivalent are divided into: 0.001L, 0.01L, 0.1L, 1L, 0.001 M3, 0.01 M3, 0.1 M3, 1 M3.
Users should pay attention that flow range of flowmeter matches with pulse equivalent when choosing
pulse equivalent. For volume flow, calculation formula is as follows:
QL = 0.0007854×D 2×V(L/S)or Q M=0.0007854×D 2×V×10 -3(M 3/S)

-18-
Here: D — Diameter(mm) V — Velocity(m/s)
If flow rate is too large while selected pulse equivalent is too small, it will cause pulse output exceed
upper limit. Therefore, pulse output frequency should be limited under 3000 Hz. If flow rate is too
small while pulse equivalent is too large it will cause the instrument output one pulse in long time.
Additionally, pulse output is different from frequency output; pulse output is when accumulation
is enough for one pulse equivalent then output one pulse, therefore, pulse output is not very even.
Generally, counter instrument instead of frequency instrument should be selected for pulse output
measurement
7.5.3 Connection of Digital Quantity Output
Digital quantity output has three junctions: digital output junction, digital grounding wire junction and
flowrate direction junction. The signs are as follows:
POUT ———— digital output junction
PCOM ———— digital grounding wire junction
PDIR ------- flowrate direction junction
Generally, the fluid flows towards one direction, meanwhile, use only need to use output junction
and grounding wire junction. If user wants to know flow direction of fluid they may use flowrate
direction junction to complete.
POUT is collector open-circuit output, user may refer to the following circuit:

8.4 Instructions of Instrument Parameters
Instrument parameters determine instrument running status, calculation method, output ways and status.
Correctly select and set instrument parameter can make instrument run at the best status and get higher
measuring display accuracy and measuring output accuracy.
Parameter setting functions of instrument are designed to have six-grade passwords among which 1
to 5 are users’ passwords while the sixth grade is manufacturer’s password. Users may use the 5 th grade
password to reset grades 1 to 4.
No matter which grade password to use, user can check instrument parameters. But if users want to
change instrument parameter they need to use different grade password.
First Grade Password (set by manufacturer as 00521): User may only observe instrument
parameters;
Second Grade Password (set by manufacturer as 03210): User may change instrument parameters
from 1 ~ 24;
Third Grade Password (set by manufacturer as 06108): User may change instrument parameters
from 1 ~ 25;
Fourth Grade Password (set by manufacturer as 07206): User may change instrument from 1 ~ 26;
Fifth Grade Password (fixed value): User may change instrument parameter from 1 ~ 51.
……
Password Grade 5 can be set by skilled users. Grade 4 is mainly used for setting total flow zero; Grades
1~3 can be set by any one chosen by users.
8.4.1 Language
Transducer has two languages----Chinese & English. Users may choose operation by themselves.
8.4.2 Instrument Communication Address
When communicating with multi-machines different communication address can be set.
8.4.3. Instrument Communication Velocity
Baud Rate selection range: 600, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 14400
8.4.4 Instrument Communication Ways
Communication type 1 is 485 communication signal output; type 2 is MODBUS communication signal
output.
8.4.5 Pipe Size
Sensor size from 3 to 3000 mm.
8.4.6 Flow Unit
Select the following flow display unit from parameters: L/s, L/min, L/h, m 3/s, m 3/min, m 3/h, UKG,
USG. Users may select the one generally used.

-25-
8.4.7 Setting of Flow Range
Flow range setting refers to determining upper limit flow value (full span) while lower-limit flow value
automatically set to “0”. So, instrument flow range setting determines instrument flow range, also
determines the corresponding relationship between instrument percentage display, frequency output or
current output and flow:
Percentage Display Value = (Flow Measuring Value /Instrument Flow Range) * 100 %;
Frequency Output Value= (Flow Measuring Value /Instrument Flow Range) * Full Span of
Frequency
Current Output = (Flow Measuring Value /Instrument Flow Range) * FS of Current + Base Point;
Pulse output value is not affected by instrument flow range setting.
Notice: Instrument displays flow rate with 5 effective figures. Flow rate unit is displayed after the last
value. If the selected flow rate unit is improper the microprocessor will show the operator “overflow”
or “underflow” caused by wrong setting. For example, select L/h as flow display unit for 200 mm
diameter; when flow rate at 1 m/s is 113097 L/h, exceeds 5 figures, causing “overflow”, you should
select flow unit m3/s, m3/min and m3/h.
8.4.8 Measuring Filtration Time (Damping Time)
Long measuring filtration time may improve the stability of instrument flow display and output signal,
fit for accumulated pulsating movement flow measuring. Short measuring filtration time has fast
response speed, fit for control in production process. Setting of measuring filtration time uses selection
mode, that is, user selects one filtration time.
8.4.9 Selection of Flow Direction
If users think that flow direction at debugging is different from designed one, users don’t need to
change connection of excitation line or signal line but to set parameter change for flow direction.
8.4.10 Flow Zero Amendment
Measuring pipe of sensor should be filled with fluid and fluid in static status. Flow zero is expressed by
flow velocity, unit mm/s.
Flow rate zero amendment is as follows

FS=

Up line small words display: FS stands for zero measuring value


Down line big words display: amendment value of zero
When FS display not “0”, amend FS = 0.
Note: if change down line amendment value, FS increases, need to change positive sign and negative
sign of down line value to make FS amend to be zero.
-26-
Amendment value of flow zero is a constant value, should be registered into record sheet of sensor and
naming plate. Zero value is a flow velocity value, making mm/s as unit, its sign is in contrary to that of
amendment value.
8.4.11 Small Signal Cutoff (Flow Cutoff)
Setting of small signal cutoff point is expressed by percentage flow of span. When doing small signal
cutoff users may choose to cut off flow rate, flow velocity and percentage display and signal output at
the same time; or choose to only cut off current output signal and frequency (pulse) output signal while
keep flow rate, flow velocity and percentage display.
8.4.12 Total Flow Unit
Indicator of transducer is 9-bit counter, max allowed value is 999999999.
Total flow unit: L, m3, UKG and USG
Total flow equivalent: 0.001L, 0.010L, 0.100L, 1.000L
0.001m3, 0.010m3, 0.100m3, 1.000m3 ;
8.4.13 Reverse Output Permission Function (Segma_N Ena)
If reverse output permission parameter is set at “Enable” status and fluid flows reversely, transducer
outputs pulse and current as per reverse flow rate and reverse total flow accumulates. If reverse output
permission parameter is set at “Disable” and fluid flows reversely then output pulse of transducer is “0”
(4mA or 0 mA), but total flow still accumulates.
8.4.14 Current Output
Users may choose 0 to 10mA or 4 to 20mA current output.
8.4.15 Pulse Output
Frequency output and pulse output for option
Frequency output: frequency output is continuous square wave; frequency value is in corresponding
with flow percentage.
Frequency Output value = (Flow Measuring Value / Instrument Flow Range) * FS of Frequency
Pulse Output: pulse output is rectangular wave pulse string; each pulse expresses one flow equivalent
flows through pipeline; pulse equivalent is selected from “pulse equivalent unit”. Pulse output mode is
mainly used for flow totalization, connected with totalizer.
Frequency output and pulse output are generally in the form of OC door. Therefore, external direct
current power and load should be connected.
8.4.16 Pulse Equivalent Unit
Pulse unit equivalent refers to flow rate represented by one pulse; selection range of instrument pulse
equivalent:

-27-
Pulse Equivalent Flow Rate Pulse Equivalent Flow Rate

1 0.001L/cp 5 0.001m3/cp

2 0.01L/cp 6 0.01m3/cp

3 0.1L/cp 7 0.1m3/cp

4 1.0L/cp 8 1.0m3/cp

Under the same flow rate, if pulse equivalent is small then frequency of output pulse is high and error
is total flow is small.
8.4.17 Pulse Output Time
Pulse output time can be selected between 4 to 400 ms; in case of high frequency, automatically change
to square wave.
8.4.18 Frequency Output Range
Frequency output range is in corresponding with upper limit of flow measuring, i.e. 100% of percentage
flow; upper limit value of frequency output can be set from 1 to 5000 Hz.
Empty Pipe Alarm Permission (Mtsensor Ena)
Instrument has empty pipe testing function, and no need for extra electrode. If users choose to allow
empty pipe alarm then when fluid in pipeline is lower than measuring electrode, instrument will test an
empty pipe status. After testing this status, analog output and digital output of instrument set to be zero,
meanwhile, instrument flow rate displays zero.
8.4.19 Empty Pipe Alarm Threshold Values (Mtsnsr Trip)
In case the pipeline is filled with fluid (no matter whether there’s flow velocity), revise setting of empty
pipe alarm to make convenient use. Up line of empty pipe alarm threshold value displays practical
conductivity while down line displays set empty pipe alarm threshold value; you may set empty pipe
alarm threshold value according to practical conductivity, 3 to 5 times of that.
8.4.20 Upper Limit Alarm Permission (Alm High Ena)
Users choose “Enable” or “Disable”.
8.4.21 Upper Limit Alarm Value
Upper limit alarm value is calculated by span percentage; this value is in the form of value setting,
users set one value between 0% and 199.9%. In the process of running, if alarm requirements are met,
instrument will output alarm signal.
8.4.22 Lower Limit Alarm
Same as that of upper limit alarm
8.4.23 Excitation Alarm
Select “Enable”, with excitation alarm function; select “Disable”, cancel excitation alarm function.

-28-
8.4.24 Code of Sensor
Sensor code may be used to mark production date and serial no of go-with sensor to help set sensor
factor.
8.4.25 Sensor Factor
Sensor factor: calibration factor of electromagnetic flowmeter. This factor is got by calibration and
printed on naming plate of sensor. Users are required to set this factor in the transducer parameters.
(generally, the factory will set it before dispatch)
8.4.26 Excitation Mode Selection
Transducer provides three excitation frequency for option: 1/10 power frequency (mode 1), 1/16 power
frequency (mode 2), 1/25 power frequency (mode 3). For small diameter sensor excitation system
inductance is small, should select 1/10 power frequency; for big diameter sensor excitation system
inductance is large, users can only select 1/16 power frequency or 1/25 power frequency. In the process
of use, firstly select excitation mode 1, if flow velocity zero is too high then select mode2 or mode3 in
turn.
Note: The flowmeter should work in the same excitation mode as in which the flowmeter is calibrated.
8.4.27 High Level / Low Level of Forward Total Flow
Setting of high or low level total flow can change the value of forward total flow and reverse total
flow; mainly used for instrument maintenance and replacement.
Users use 5-grade password to enter, may revise forward total flow(Σ+). Generally, the set total flow
cannot exceed the max value (999999999) counted by counter.
8.4.28 Time – Year, Month, Day, Hour, Minute, Second (with clock function)
Users use five-grade passwords to enter, may revise time – year, month, day, hour, minute and second.
8.4.29 Peak Restriction Permission
For serum like paper pulp and slurry, solid particle in the liquid may rub or attack measuring electrode
and cause “Tip Shape Interference”; to overcome this kind of interference, our transducer uses
algorithm of change rate restriction; transducer is designed to have 3 parameters to select change rate
restriction characteristics.
Set this parameter to “Enable” to start change rate restriction algorithm; set this parameter to
“Disable” to close change rate restriction algorithm.
8.4.30 Peak Restriction Factor
This factor selects the change rate to restrict Tip Shape Interference, calculate as per percentage of flow
velocity, divided into 10 grades: 0.010m/s, 0.020m/s, 0030m/s, 0.050m/s, 0.080m/s, 0.100m/s, 0.200m/
s, 0.300m/s, 0.500m/s, 0.800m/s. The smaller the percentage, the higher the sensitivity of Tip Shape
Interference Restriction. Please note, in application, it is not necessary that the higher the sensitivity
the better, but try to choose according to practical conditions.
8.4.31 Peak Restriction Time
This parameter selects the time width to restrict Tip Shape Interference, take millisecond as unit.

-29-
If flow change in lasting time less than that in selected time then transducer thinks it is Tip Shape
Interference; if flow change in lasting time is larger than that in selected time then transducer thinks it
is normal flow change. You may try to select this parameter according to practical conditions.
8.4.32 Users Password 1 to 4
Users use 5-grade password to enter, may revise this password.
8.4.33 Current Zero Amendment
Zero adjustment of current output before leaving factory makes current output accurately to be 0 mA or
4 mA.
8.4.34 Current Full Span Amendment
Full span adjustment of current output before leaving factory makes current output accurately to be
10mA or 20mA.
8.4.35 Factory Calibration Factor
The manufacturer of transducer uses this factor to make measuring circuit system of transducer
normalization to ensure exchangeability among all transducers upto 0.1%.
8.4.36 Instrument Code 1 & 2
Transducer codes record factory date and serial no of transducer.
8.4.37 Password for Total Flow Zero
Users may use third-grade password to set this password, under Total Flow Zero.

9. Alarm Information
Because print circuit board of transducer uses surface welding technology, for users, it is unrepairable.
Therefore, users cannot open the shell of transducer.
The transducer has self-diagnosis function. Except for trouble in power supply and hardware circuit,
it can accurately give alarm information for trouble appeared in general application. These information
indicate “ ” at the left of indicator. Under measuring status, instrument automatically displays trouble
content as follows:
FQH ---- Flowrate Upper Limit Alarm; FQL ---- Flowrate Lower Limit Alarm;
FGP ---- Fluid Empty Pipe Alarm; SYS ---- System Excitation Alarm;
UPPER ALARM ---- Flowrate Upper Limit Alarm LOWER ALARM ---- Flowrate Lower Limit Alarm
LIQUID ALARM ---- Fluid Empty Pipe Alarm SYSTEM ALARM ---- System Excitation Alarm

10. Troubleshooting
10.1 No Display
﹡ Check whether power is on.
﹡ Check whether main fuse is in good condition
﹡ Check whether power supply meets the requirement.

10.2 Excitation Alarm
﹡ Check whether excitation connection EX1 and EX2 are open circuit
﹡ Check whether total resistance of sensor excitation coil is less than 150 Ω
﹡ If the former two items are normal then transducer has trouble.
10.3 Empty Pipe Alarm
﹡ Check whether sensor measuring pipe is filled with fluid
﹡ Short circuit transducer signal input terminal SIG1, SIG2 and SIGGND with lead wire;
meanwhile, if prompt“Empty Pipe”cancels then it shows transducer is normal; it’s possible that
the conductivity of measured fluid is low or settings of empty pipe threshold value and empty pipe
range are wrong.
﹡ Check whether signal lines are connected correctly
﹡ Check whether electrodes of sensor are correct.
Make flow rate zero, indicated conductance ratio should be less than 100%
When there are flow flowing through, respectively test the resistance of terminal SIG1 and SIG2 to
SIGGND, should be less than 50 kΩ (for measuring value of fluid water, it’s better to measure with
pointer multimeter; charge-discharge phenomenon will be seen in measuring process).
﹡ Test direct current voltage between DS1 & DS2 with multimeter, it should be less than 1V,
otherwise it indicates that sensor electrodes are polluted, and should be cleaned.
10.4 Flow Measurement Not Accurate
﹡ Whether measuring pipe is full of fluid
﹡ Whether signal lines are connected normally
﹡ Check whether sensor factor and sensor zero are set according to naming plate or calibration
certificate.
