VMI 20 Magnetic Inductive Flow Sensor

Due to the robust metal housing and stable metal process connections, the SIKA VMI 20 is ideal for use in the field of mechanical engineering and plant construction. Its design also makes it suitable for higher temperatures and process pressures, and the instrument is available in three different sizes. All sensors will be delivered with a works calibration certificate.

The smart flow sensors of the SIKA VMI 20 induQ® series operate according to the principle of induction: The measuring pipe is in a magnetic field (B). If an electrically conductive medium, with the flow (Q) to be measured, flows through the measuring pipe and thereby at a right-angle to the magnetic field, a voltage (U) is induced in the medium. This voltage is proportional to the average flow velocity and is picked up by two electrodes.

Regarding flow proportional output signals, two versions are available:

• Frequency output signal (standard)
• Analog and frequency output signal (option)

The pulse rate can be configured at the factory.

The induQ® sensors enable the flow measurement/volume flow measurement or dosing of electrically conductive liquids without any moving parts. They are the ideal flow sensors when accuracy and reliability are a must.
