Application and construction
Electromagnetic flowmeter type PEM-500 is applicable to the measurement of flow of the liquids with minimum conductivity of 5ěS/cm. Device measures flow and volume of liquids in both directions of flow. For correct measurement pipe of sensor has to be fully filled by liquid. Sensor doesn’t have any mechanical parts inside flow tube which
ensure undisturbed flow of medium. Flowmeter is able to measure flow of medium like pure liquids but also pastes and chemically aggressive liquids. It’s applicable is in water treatment facilities for flow measure of water and wastewater, chemical industry, food industry or heat plants. Compact construction with ingress protection rating IP68
(special version) allows to bury device underground.
Sensors and control unit of electromagnetic flowmeter PEM-500 can’t be disconnected by user. The casing of the control unit is made of aluminium alloy cast. User has no access to the electronic boards. Electrical connection of flowmeter is provided by the factory assembled cables. Wires in cables are marked by colours or numbers (detailed description available in table). Number of cable depends on version of power supply. Version with power supply 90…260 VAC is equipped with two separate cables – signal cable and power supply cable. Version with power supply 10…36 VDC is equipped with one signal-supply cable. In standard flowmeter is equipped with 3m long cables. Other cable length are available on request. As an option PEM-500 flowmeter can be delivered with junction box PPPEM with ingress protection class IP67 with factory connected flowmeter’s cable which allows users connecting cables to terminals. Flowsensor tube have flanges (which allows to mount sensor in pipeline), inner electrodes and isolating pipe lining (both matched to measured medium). Electrodes in standard are made of stainless steel but as option user can choose other materials
appropriate for chemical characteristic of measured medium.
