1 General information on the water meter
All properties of this water meter, whether mentioned or not, will not be in conflict with
the legislation.
This EC type-examination certificate describes an electromagnetic water meter, which is
exactly of the same construction as the electromagnetic meter described in Evaluation
Certificate TC7161 and its Documentation Folder.
1.1 Essential Parts
1.1.1 Measurement Sensor
- Cylindrical pipe
The cylindrical pipe is internally covered with an insulating liner. 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 for details about the liner and the process
connection of the meter.
1.1.2 Signal Converter
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 internal data-bus (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
Used for 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
• 24 V AC/DC
- Output boards
The output board(s) installed determine the possible outputs available. Possible are:
• Basic 10 Module (IFC300F type CG300xx100)
MI Description
Number T10003 revision 6
Project number 218464
Page 2 of 5
This board has the following outputs: Current Output including digital Hart'
protocol, Status output or Control input, Status output and single channel pulse
output.
• EXI 10 Module (IFC300F 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 (IFC300F 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, B = 8: No module placed.
A, 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 water 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.
1.1.2.2 Essential shapes of the Signal Converter
- Housing
The housing of the Signal Converter consists of:
• Metallic housing (compact and remote version).
Optionally the housing is explosion proof.
• Plastic housing for wall mounting (only possible for the remote version).

- The signal converter is either directly mounted on the measurement sensor (compact
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, 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 Markings:
- The markings have to fulfil the requirements stated in the legislation.
- The data plate is fixed to the water meter and secured against removal by sealing or
will be destroyed when removed.
- For the remote version:
• 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.
The following seals are applied:
- The measurement sensor against opening.
- The cover of the display of the signal converter against opening.
Before sealing the "Weights and Measures jumper" is placed on the GDC-bus of the
display of the signal converter. This jumper prohibits the changing of the Weights and
Measures parameters.
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
2 Conditions for Approval
- If the water meter is used bi-directional, both flow directions must be included in the
verification.
