Sewage electromagnetic flowmeter grounding introduction
The flow signal detected by the
sensor electrode of the electromagnetic flow
meter is millivolt level and is based on the potential of the fluid in the
sensor, so external interference has a great influence on it. Therefore, good grounding largely determines the measurement of the flow
meter. Accuracy. The fluid being measured itself acts as an electrical conductor and must exclude other unrelated electromagnetic interference. The potential signal detected by the electrode is not disturbed by the external parasitic potential. The
sensor should have a good separate ground wire with a grounding resistance of less than 10 Ω. If an insulating layer or a non-metallic pipe is used in the pipe connecting the
sensors, a grounding ring should be installed on both sides of the
sensor.
