McCrometer streamlined sensor for accurate liquid measurement

McCrometer Ultra Mag sensor
McCrometer Ultra Mag sensor

The Ultra Mag flow meter delivers a flow measurement accuracy of +0.5% in water effluent with repeatability of 0.05% of actual flow for reliable operation. Designed for 2 to 48 inch lines, the Ultra Mag flow meter from McCrometer, measures flow from 0.2 to 49 fps at pressures of up to 300 psi. The flow meter’s streamline non-contacting electromagnetic sensor design makes it suitable for use in dirty water effluent with sand, debris and even slurry or sludge media without clogging worries.

Two compact, high-density magnetic coils placed within the pipe outer wall of the Ultra Mag flow meter generate an electromagnetic field inside the pipe. As conductive liquid flows through the pipe, a voltage is created, which is measured by electrodes inserted through the flow meter liner into the flow stream. The voltage is then converted to a flow rate reading by the Ultra Mag's signal converter, which includes a digital read-out.

The Ultra Mag flow meter operates in high temperatures up to 170°F and is available with optional end connections such as ANSI, DIN, JIS, smooth and grooved end flanges. The Ultra Mag utilizes UltraLiner technology, an NSF-approved epoxy which is more robust than inserted liners. The UltraLiner technology is non-conductive to eliminate stray currents, acts as an electric insulator and will not collapse or delaminate when used on suction lines.
