BE62-101-1 Polaris

The Polaris™ MA1 is the first liquid flow
meter offered by Magnetrol®, expanding the
already diverse level and flow measurement
portfolio that has been established over
the last 80 years.
The electromagnetic flow meter consists of a sensor through which the measured
liquid flows and an electronic unit where the low-level signal from the sensor
is modified to a standardized form suitable for further processing in various
industrial electronic devices.
The output signal is proportional to the volumetric flow rate of the measured
liquid. The only factor limiting the application of electromagnetic flow meters is
the requirement that the measured liquid shall be conductive and non-magnetic.
The electromagnetic flow meter can be designed either as an integral device
or with the sensor separated from the associated electronic unit. In the former
case, the electronic unit is fitted directly onto the sensor, in the latter case it is
connected to the sensor by a remote cable.
The sensor design shall take into consideration the type of the measured liquid
and its operational parameters. To facilitate fitting into the liquid piping, the
sensor can be provided with end flanges or as a wafer style design.
The function of an electromagnetic flow meter is
based on Faraday’s law of induction. The sensor
consists of a non-magnetic and non-conductive
tube with two embedded measuring electrodes.
To create an alternating magnetic field, two coils
are fitted onto the tube in parallel with the plane
defined by the active parts of the measuring
electrodes. If a conductive liquid flows across the
magnetic field, a voltage will appear on the measuring electrodes proportional to the flow velocity
and the conductor length.
