MSR Magmeter - Model Magnum IC -Universal Digital Flowmeter
The Magnum IC in most respects is technically identical to the Magnum Standard. It can be used in the same applications and pipe sizes with the exception of liquids above 100C. Instead of housing the electronics in a separate transmitter box it is housed all inside the body of the sensor itself. The advantage is a more compact instrument for remote locations where a local display is not required. The Magnum IC is also programmed with the the Magio III setup software. It provides the same output and performance as a Magnum Standard. The Magnum IC also uses the universal mounting mechanism.
Magnum IC is a magnetic flowmeter for measuring the flow of conductive liquids in pipes. The sensor creates a pulsating, alternating magnetic field on the inside of a pipe. The liquid in the pipe will move through this magnetic field and generate a signal current proportional to its velocity. This information is collected by the electrodes and then processed by the Magnum’s microprocessor to provide the user with the desired flow information.
Magnum IC houses a full featured digital transmitter inside the sensor housing itself. All features of the basic flowmeter, plus a number of possible optional additions, including pressure and temperature sensing, as well as data-logging, are enclosed within the compact submersible package.
Magnum is an entirely digital instrumet. All internal functions of the flowmeter are controlled by software. Setup and configuration for applications are handled by the new Magio 3.0 software interface, which runs on Win95/98 based PCs. Setup can be done in the field on a laptop or in the office at a desktop PC.
Once the setup is completed the instrument can be installed. The only requirements are cabling for power in (12 VDC) and signal out (4-20mA). This makes it ideally suited for SCADA type applications which may require numerous measurement points at remote locations. The Magnum IC also features optional hardware for data-logging, as well as additional inputs, such as pressure and temperature.
