Bürkert Type 8045 insertion electromagnetic flow meter

Click2Contact

Bürkert has re-engineered its Type 8045 insertion electromagnetic flow meter. It now offers a cut-off feature, designed to optimise use in low flow applications. This function allows the operator to set a lower limit under which the measurement value is set as zero. This parameter feeds through to display, totalisers, outputs and downstream process conditions.

A digital input has also been added to the 8045 electromagnetic flow meter, allowing control system initiated reset of totalising functions, hold mode go-to, zero-point calibration and other functions. This feature has been added to facilitate remote control capabilities, via site control systems.

An adjustable backlit display has been added for reading and programming in dim conditions. The re-engineered 8045 mag flow meter features integrated diagnostics to support local operation, with a simple and conspicuous green/orange/red LED status indication.

The 8045 electromagnetic flow meter is an all-purpose unit with no moving parts, making it suitable for demanding processes including those with particulate contamination. Processes must be conductive, measuring >20 µS, and pipe diameter may be up to 400 mm.

Insertion mag flow meters poke a sensor finger with integrated electronics into the process flow, rather than replacing a portion of the pipework as full bore mag flow meters do. Insertion mag flow meter types have therefore proved advantageous where the extreme accuracy (~0.5%) of a full bore mag flow meter is not required and ~2% accuracy will suffice.

The Type 8045 mag flow meter is suitable for CIPO systems, the water treatment industry and water applications.
