1 General information on the meter
All properties, mentioned or not, of this meter, shall not be in conflict with the Dutch
Weights and Measures Regulation "IJkregeling vloeistofineters en
vloeistofineetinstal laties".
This Test certificate describes an electromagnetic meter. Basically consisting of a
cylindrical piece of piping with 2 magnetic spools and 2 electrodes and a Signal
Converter, which is used to drive the magnetic spools and convert the electrode voltage
to a flow rate.
1.1 Essential Parts
1.1.1 Measurement Sensor
- Cylindrical pipe
The cylindrical pipe which is internally covered with an insulating liner (either PP
(polypropylene) or PFA(Teflon) liner is used). Through the liner the 2 electrodes are in
contact with the liquid. Outside the pipe the 2 magnetic coils are mounted.
Also see the Documentation Folder belonging to this Test certificate.
1.1.2 Signal Converter
Exists of an explosion proof enclosure.
1.1.2.1 Essential parts of the Signal Converter
- Back plane
Used for all internal connections inside the Signal Converter.
- Sensor board
• Driving the magnetic coils inside the measurement sensor, and checks the current
required for the coils.
• Measures the induced voltage and processes the induced voltage to flow speed,
flow rate, etc. Also validates the voltage sensing circuitry.
• Communicates with the other modules through the GDC-bus.
- Display module with optical keys
• Displays all measurement values. The values presented and the format is
programmable. The settings are secured with the "Weights and Measure" (W&M)
jumper.
• Read the 4 optical keys. These keys can be used for: paging through the 3
measurement pages, setting and changing of parameter via a menu system.
• GDC master
The GDC master controls all data traffic over the GDC-bus. If the master fails,
measurements are not possible.
All data communication over the GDC-bus is protected through CRC16 checksums.
• GDC-bus port
Is used for installing the Weights and Measures jumper. This locks all weights and
measures parameters against changing.
- Power supply
Available are:
• 100 - 230 VAC, 50/60 Hz
• 12 - 24VDC
0 24 V AC/DC

- Output boards
The output board(s) installed determine the possible outputs available. Possible are:
• Basic 10 Module (IFC300 type CG300xx100)
This board has the following outputs: Current Output including digital Hart
protocol, Status output or Control input, Status output and single channel pulse
output.
The
• EXI 10 Module (IFC300 type CG300xxAB0)
This module has a basic layout. Depending on the required functionality, certain
components are placed on the board. Possible are:
■ A= 2: Current output (active) with Hart protocol and pulse output (passive)
■ A= 3: Current output (passive) with Hart protocol and pulse output (passive)
■ B = 2: Current output (passive) and pulse output (passive)/Control input
• Modular 10 (IFC300 type CG300xx4AB)
This is a modular 10 board, providing:
- Current output (active) with Hart protocol and a pulse output (active).
- 2 places for modules (indicated with A and B) for extra outputs:
A and B = 8: No module placed.
A and B = C: Pulse output (active) or Current Output(active) for each module
Remarks: The Hart protocol is superimposed on the DC current signal and enables the
meter to communicate with other equipment.
If pulses are used for the transmission of the measured volume to other
equipment, the use of two pulse channels (also called double pulses) is
mandatory. Both pulse channels must be shifted in phase.
1.2 Essential Characteristics
- Measurement sensor
• Characteristics stated on page 1
• Characteristics in the next table:
Meter size DN25 DN50 DN80 DN100
Qmax [m3/h] 20 50 200 312,5
Qmin [m3/h] 1 2,5 10 15,6
MMQ [m3] 0,2 0,5 2 2
Meter size DN150 DN250 DN500
Qmax [m3/h] 500 2000 7875
Qmin [m3/h] 25 100 787,5
MMQ [m3] 5 20 100
Maximum Pressure : 16 bar(g)
- The signal converter is either directly mounted on the measurement sensor (combined
version) or is mounted separately from the measurement sensor (remote version)
- The measurement sensor and the signal converter form a matched set. The exact
physical properties of the measurement sensor are pre programmed into the signal
converter.

- Working principle
The magnetic field, generated through the 2 magnetic coils, induces a voltage across
the flowing (conductive) liquid (Faraday's law for conductors moving through a
magnetic field).
This induced voltage is measured with the 2 electrodes and is directly proportional to
the flow speed. By taking into account the pipe dimensions the flow rate can be
calculated and displayed and outputted. By integrating over time the total measured
volume can be calculated and displayed.
The validity of the program and the parameters is continuously checked. If these
checks fail an alarm is generated.
1.3 Essential Shapes
1.3.1 Inscriptions.
- For the compact version:
■ At least the inscription TC3584 is mentioned on the data plate.
- For the remote version:
■ At least the inscription TC3584 is mentioned on the measurement sensor and on
the signal converter
■ The serial number of the signal converter is mentioned on the measurement
sensor
and/or
The serial number of the measurement sensor is mentioned on the signal
converter.
1.3.2 Sealing.
See chapter 3 of this description.
1.4 Conditional Shapes
- Cylindrical pipe
The cylindrical pipe is constructed so that the combination of material and wall
thickness is such that the influence due to changing liquid pressure is negligible.
1.5 Non essential Shapes
The appearance of the data plate(s).
2 Conditions for Approval
- If the meter is applied in a measuring system, it must be constructed in accordance
with the Description and Documentation Folder belonging to this Test Certificate.
3 Sealing
- Sealing of the measurement sensor against opening.
- Sealing of the cover of the display of the signal converter against opening.
Before sealing the "Weights and Measures jumper" is placed on the GC-bus of the
display of the signal converter. This jumper prohibits the changing of the Weights and
Measures parameters.
- Sealing of the back cover of the signal converter.
