The Badger Meter Magnetoflow series of electromagnetic flow meters combines a flow detector with a Primo flow
amplifier, creating a versatile, user-friendly flow metering system for general purpose applications. Electromagnetic
flow meters have inherent advantages over other flow technologies and can accurately meter liquids that are highly
corrosive, very viscous, contain a moderate amount of solids or require special handling. The Magnetoflow broadens
this advantage by including three meter styles: flanged, wafer and sanitary; making the Magnetoflow suitable for nearly
any industrial flow application especially water, wastewater, bi-directional, chemical, pharmaceutical, food, and
beverage applications.
The Badger Meter Magnetoflow flow detector-- which includes the flow tube, isolating liner and measuring electrodes-- is
available in sizes from 1/4" (0.02 to 5 gpm) to 54" (980 to 292,700 gpm) for the flanged model. The wafer model is
available in sizes from 1" (0.24 to 80 gpm) to 4" (4.0 to 1292 gpm) while the sanitary model is available in sizes
from 3/8" (0.034 to 11.4 gpm) to 4" (4.0 to 1292 gpm). Designed, developed and manufactured under strict quality
standards, the Magnetoflow detector has no parts in the flow stream resulting in no pressure loss. Also, accuracy is
not affected by temperature, pressure, viscosity, density or flow profile. With no moving parts there is practically
no maintenance required. A wide selection of liner and electrode materials helps ensure maximum compatibility and
minimum maintenance over a long operating period.
The Badger Meter Magnetoflow Primo flow amplifier-- which is the electronic device responsible for the signal
processing, flow calculation, display and output signals-- features sophisticated, processor-based signal conversion
with accuracies of ±0.25%. The amplifier includes programmable and scalable analog outputs, configurable digital,
pulse outputs and frequency output. Flow data and programmable parameters as well as diagnostic messages are
displayed on the backlit 4-line x 16-character LCD. The display also serves to guide users through the simple
programming routines. The amplifier can be either meter or remote mounted.
