It is dedicated for applications in the water and wastewater industry. It consists of a WATERFLUX 3000 sensor and a battery operated IFC 070 converter. The converter can be mounted directly on the sensor (compact version)or separately(field version). WATERFLUX 3070 is designed for custody transfer applications. It meets the requirements of the OIML R49 and can be verified according to MI-001. For potable water applications it is certified with DVGW, ACS, KTW. Krohne Altometer meets the applicable requirements of MID module D for the conformity assessment of water meters. The accuracy of the WATERFLUX 3070 is 0.2 % of the measured value plus 0.5 mm/s and every flow meter leaving the factory is calibrated. The principle of the electromagnetic flow metering is based on Faraday's law of induction: passing an electrically conductive body through a magnetic field, a voltage is induced. This voltage is proportional to velocity and picked up by electrodes. The WATERFLUX 3000 sensor has a rectangular cross section resulting in an improved flow profile, high accuracy in low flow conditions, large span and minimal power consumption. It is stated by the manufacturer that straight up-and downstream lengths are not required. A grounding electrode provides the grounding of the medium, grounding rings are not required. The field version of the sensor can be submerged (IP68) and with an optional buriable coating can be installed directly underground. The tube and coil are designed for efficient energy consumption. The IFC 070 converter is battery operated with two internal lithium batteries, with an operating life time is up to 15 years. It can display positive and negative counter, sum counter and flow rate. It can further provide diagnostic information for self checking, battery warnings, counter overrun, flow direction and empty pipe detection. It has two pulse outputs and two status outputs.
