Flow meter that works without external power.
Many flow meters fail to function in remote locations due to a scarcity of electrical power. Load shading, accidental damages, or natural calamities are some of the causes of electricity failures. In such locations, a long-lasting solution is possible with a battery-operated flow meter. Manas makes Battery Operated Electromagnetic Flow Meter, which is available with an integral or remote version of the transmitter.
This meter does not require an external electric supply and can function without it as per the given specifications. This Electromagnetic Flow Meter is specifically designed where an electric supply is not available and accurate flow measurement is essential. These meters are popular where meter readings are taken periodically by local authorities for billing purposes, like Municipalities, Industrial Development corporations, etc.
Battery operated Electromagnetic Flow Meter with Victaulic Coupling
Manas has introduced a new type of Battery-Operated Electromagnetic Flow meter series.
It is available with an integral or remote version of the transmitter. This flowmeter is specifically designed for areas where continuous electric supply is unavailable.
It is available with Grooved connections compatible with Victaulic coupling of the same line size or with ANSI flanged connections. Grooved-end fittings can speed up the installation of temporary water pipelines, minimizing interruptions in service for short-term needs.
Various types of linear and earth electrodes are available for these meters. Empty tube detection is also provided, giving an indication of the pipeline running dry.
Features
- Battery Operated (Battery Life 5 Years)
- Sizes Available from ½” to 20”.
- Highly Accurate and extremely Linear.
- Microvolt signal Proportional flow rate from the primary flow sensor.
- Various types of Liner & Earth electrodes, both options are available.
- Empty tube detection is also provided.
Applications
- Municipal water supply schemes
- Irrigation schemes
- Mining Industry
- Sewage treatment plants
- Management of water and wastewater
- Effluent treatment plants
Benefits
- Ideal for temporary or portable applications where a permanent power source is not available or practical
- Battery-powered flow meters are less susceptible to electrical interference or voltage fluctuations in the surrounding environment
- Battery-powered meters can continue to operate even during power outages, ensuring uninterrupted flow measurement and data collection
- They can be easily moved and reinstalled as needed.
