Electromagnetic flowmeters are used to measure electrolytes
Thread Content
There is a pipeline on site where an electromagnetic flowmeter is intended to be used to measure the flow rate of the fluid; the fluid in question is an electrolyte, and the cell voltage is 10V (DC). The electromagnetic flowmeter has 4 electrodes (2 grounding electrodes + 2 measuring electrodes), with the electrodes made of tantalum. A titanium grounding ring is also provided. Can this electromagnetic flowmeter be used to measure the flow rate of the electrolyte in this application? Why?
I think any conductive liquid will do
Yokogawa’s can be used; there is an additional option specifically for electrolytes.
Conductive liquids, of course, are fine. There are disturbances such as direct current in the electrolyte. Regular transmitters can’t measure it!
Any liquid with a conductivity constant that is not too low can be measured; since this is an electrolyte, there should be no problem.
