Kobold expands measurement capabilities for neutral and aggressive media in small and large process manufacturing plants.
"The global market for magnetic-inductive flow meters is stable with sales of over five million devices. With this statistic in mind, Kobold have combined two of their proven components, the successful type MIK magnetic-inductive flow meter and the popular `U-PACE‘ compact electronics, creating an exciting new compact flow instrument at the best price for our customers“, says Diploma Engineer and Development Manager at KOBOLD Messring GmbH, Manfred Heil. "Our market analyses have shown a significant demand for this."
How it works...
Functionality according to the magnetic-inductive measurement principle
According to Faraday's law of induction, a voltage is induced in a conductor moving in a magnetic field. The electrically conductive measuring medium corresponds here to the moving conductor. The voltage induced by the fluid is proportional to the flow rate and thus a measure of the volumetric flow. The induced voltage is fed to the electronics via two electrodes. The volume flow rate is calculated and output based on the known inner diameter.

Combining established capabilities with successful compact electronics U-PACE
Where previously separate electronic modules were necessary for flow display and dosing, all these and more tasks are now taken over by the new compact electronics U-PACE. This new development, a chemically resistant flow meter and flow monitor in one device, caters to a broad range of applications. The MIK is suitable for almost all applications such as flow control, flow measurement,
