Electromagnetic Flowmeter Mounting Examples

Shown here are typical mounting examples for fitting an electromagnetic flow sensor in a pipe. Always consult the appropriate installation manual included with your sensor for specific mounting instructions and proper locations for each individual piping situation.

Wafer-style Sensors

Sensor with remote converter installed in a manhole.

Sensor with integral converter being
installed in a concrete batch mixing system.

Flanged Sensors

Flanged sensor with integral converter
installed in a water main.

Tri-Clamp Sensors

Stainless steel HS300 sensor installed using tri-clamp fittings in a beverage mixing system.

Insertion Style Electromagnetic Flowmeters

Insertion style magmeters have a sensor at the end of a tube mounted in a housing that is screwed into a threaded nipple. The sensor electrodes are mounted in the tip that protrudes into the pipe. A shutoff valve (a ball valve is less prone to plugging than a gate valve) is usually placed between the meter and the nipple to close the hole when not in use but a simple cap could also be used.
