System description
Electromagnetic flowmeters with the IFC 020 signal converter are precision instruments designed
for linear flow measurement of liquid products.
The process liquids must be electrically conductive:
≥
5
µ
S/cm
(for cold demineralized water
≥
20
µ
S/cm).
The full-scale range Q
100%
can be set as a function of the meter size:

/hr = 0.03 - 156.672 US Gal/min
This is equivalent to a flow velocity of 0.3 - 12 m/s or 1 - 40 ft/s.
Product liability and warranty
The electromagnetic flowmeters with the IFC 020 signal converter are designed solely for
measuring the volumetric flowrate of electrically conductive, liquid process products.
These flowmeters are not certified for use in hazardous areas. Other flowmeter series are
available for such applications.
Responsibility as to suitability and intended use of these electromagnetic flowmeters rests solely
with the operator.
Improper installation and operation of the flowmeters (systems) may lead to loss of warranty.
In addition, the “General conditions of sale” forming the basis of the purchase contract are
applicable.
If flowmeters need to be returned to Krohne, please note the information given on the last-but-one
page of these Instructions. Krohne regrets that it cannot repair or check your flowmeter(s) unless
accompanied by the completed form sheet.
• Electromagnetic flowmeters with the IFC 020 signal converter meet the protection requirements
of Directive 89/336/EEC in conjunction with EN 50081-1 (1992) and EN 50082-2 (1995),
as well as Directives 73/23/EEC and 93/68/EEC in conjunction with EN 61010-1, and bear the
