Seametrics EX100-200 Series v.1 - Manual (Page 3)

The complete lack of moving par ts of this inser tion flow
sensor is the source of its reliability. There is no rotor to
stop turning in dir ty water and there are no bearings to
wear out. A rapidly reversing magnetic field is produced
in the lower housing, and as the fluid moves through this
field a voltage is generated. This tiny voltage is measured
and translated into a frequency signal which is propor tional
to flow rate. This square wave signal can be sent directly
to a PLC or other control, or can be conver ted using any of
the SeaMetrics family of indicators and convertors.
A modular system of electronics can be attached directly
to the flow sensor, or remotely mounted. SeaMetrics
currently offers four systems: The FT420 provides full
indication of rate and total, plus 4-20 mA output. The
AO55 provides blind 4-20 mA output, the PD10 divides
the pulse frequency, and the FS30 can be used for a
precise setpoint flow switch.
The installation fitting of the EX sensor is standard male
NPT, and can be directly threaded into ordinar y saddles or
threaded weld fittings. The EX115 and 215 include an
isolation valve, allowing hot-tap installation, or installation
and removal under pressure. The standard isolation valve
is bronze, but a 316 stainless steel valve is available as
an option if needed.
