Dwyer Series MFS2 Magnetic Inductive Flow Sensor is a compact, lower-cost plastic alternative to the Series MFS. Unlike sensors with moving parts, the MFS2 can be used in applications dealing with contaminated media.
Dwyer Series MFS2 Magnetic Inductive Flow Sensor |
This series provides a reliable measuring technique, an obstruction-free pipe cross-section, as well as a quick response time, making this series ideal for interference-free operation. Any change in temperature, density, viscosity, concentration, or electrical conductivity of the liquid, does not affect the output signal of this Magnetic Inductive Flow Sensor. This, in addition to its long life cycle and PVDF process connection, makes this series perfect for accurate reversible gauging of the volume flow of conductive liquids in closed piping.
The measuring pipe is in a magnetic field. If an electrically conductive medium with a certain flow passes through the pipe, it passes at a right-angle to the magnetic field, creating a voltage that is proportional to the average flow velocity and picked up by two electrodes within the MFS2. A frequency output signal is obtained that is proportional to the flow (analog output option available).
