Electromagnetic Insertion Flow Meter
540 Technologies offers a full line of electromagnetic flow meters. The AVI Mag Flow Meter is a best in class solution for the water works industry.
Electromagnetic Insertion Flow Meter
The AVI-MAG is a hot tap full profile electromagnetic averaging insertion flow meter. Multiple electrodes placed across the entire sensor body at equal area, measure and report the average flow rate over the full diameter of pipe. The specific design of the multi- electrode sensor compensates for variable flow profiles, including swirl and turbulent condition.
The AVI-MAG can be installed without shutting down, emptying or cutting the pipe (hot tap installation). It does not require welding flanges and installation can be done in pressurized pipelines up to 1 d bar.
Cost of installation is largely reduced by eliminating the need for heavy equipment (cranes, etc.) or extensive manpower. The AVI- MAG is the most economical flow metering solution for medium and large pipe sensor sizes, reducing drastically installation costs.
The AVI-MAG fits in confined spaces, can be submerged and offers complete accessibility. It can be removed in pipes under pressure for easy inspection, cleaning, calibrating or verification. It is particularly cost-effective for retrofit application.
The AVI-MAG comes in 2 different sizes in order to be used with 1.0” or 2" ball valves.
