Electromagnetic flow meter FLEXMAG 6100

volumefor liquidsDN8 - 1/4"

Overview
The FLEXMAG 6100 is an electromagnetic flowmeter designed for single-use biopharmaceutical processes, including filtration, chromatography and buffer/media preparation. It comprises a sensor, a disposable single-use flow tube and a signal converter. The sterile, biocompatible flow tube is gamma- or X-ray-sterilisable and supplied in double-sealed individual pouches with a single barb fitting for integration into single-use assemblies.

Key benefits

• High-accuracy flow measurement across a wide range without need for recalibration
• Disposable flow tube sterilised by gamma or X-ray, available in sizes 1/4 in to 1 in (ID)
• Wetted materials compliant with biopharmaceutical requirements
• Advanced diagnostics and embedded webserver for configuration and troubleshooting
• EtherNet/IP™ digital communication and galvanically isolated 4…20 mA output (active/passive)
