No Moving Parts, Hot-Tap Option, 3 to 48" Field Adjustable Insertion

The SERIES IEFS Insertion Electromagnetic Flow Sensor comes in brass or stainless steel allowing it to handle a wide range of pressures and temperatures, as well as a variety of available saddle fittings, Series SDF, to fit pipe sizes 3 to 24". The IEFS-1XX has an isolation valve which allows hot-tap installation. Additional options for this flow meter include adapter fittings and a reverse flow output. The Series IEFS is great for “dirty” water applications or any application where moving parts may be an issue.

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
The IEFS is a liquid flow meter that uses a magnetic field to measure flow. As conductive fluids flow through the magnetic field, a voltage is generated which is measured and translated into a pulse frequency output signal. This signal can then be used with the Series BAT to produce a 4 to 20 mA analog signal, or the Series RTI to display rate and total.

ACCESSORIES
• Series BAT, Blind Analog Transmitter, converts pulse output to 4 to 20 mA analog output. Unit is loop powered, fits on the enclosure of the meter, and is field spannable.
• Series RTI, Rate Total Indicator, converts pulse output to 4 to 20 mA analog output with local flow rate and totalization display. Unit is loop powered, can fit on the enclosure of the meter, and provides a high/low flow alarm.
• Series PWD, Pulse Divider, for use with pacing electronic metering pumps. Unit divides the input frequency to any number from 1 to 9999 with the use of rotary switches to suit a number of metering pump inputs.

Product Applications

  • Conductive Liquids
  • Municipal
  • Industrial
  • Irrigation
  • Contaminated Liquid Flow Monitoring
  • Telemetry Applications
