Technical Datasheet Electromagnetic flow sensor • For all water and wastewater applications • Wide range of approvals for potable water • Robust, fully welded construction with full bore pipe The documentation is only complete when used in combination with the relevant documentation for the signal converter.

1.1 Reliable solution for the water and wastewater industry The OPTIFLUX 2000 is designed to meet the demands for all water and waste water applications including groundwater, potable water, waste water, sludge and sewage, industry water and salt water. The OPTIFLUX 2000 has a field proven and unsurpassed lifetime. This is assured by the fully welded construction, full bore pipe, absence of moving parts and wear resistant liner materials. The flow sensor has the widest diameter range available in the market: from DN25 up to DN3000. 1 Robust fully welded construction 2 Diameter range:...

Rugged liners suitable for any water and wastewater application Proven and unsurpassed lifetime, huge installed base Tamper proof, fully welded construction, also available in customer specific constructions Drinking water approvals including KTW, KIWA, DVGW, ACS, NSF, WRAS Suitable for subsoil installation and constant flooding (IP68) Bi-directional flow metering Compliant with requirements for custody transfer (MID MI-001, OIML R49, ISO 4064, EN 14154) Standard in house wet calibration of flow sensors up to diameter DN3000 Easy installation and commissioning No grounding rings with...

1.2 Options The reliable solution for the water and wastewater industry From standard to customized For easy ordering the standard range of the OPTIFLUX 2000 covers all popular sizes, flange materials and connections (ASME, EN, JIS, AWWA). But KROHNE does not stop here. Our extensive engineering department is dedicated to provide solutions for all specifications not covered by our standard range. Requests for special sizes, flange connections, pressure ratings, building lengths, and materials, will always get a serious review. Whenever possible we will engineer a flow meter that fits your...

Custody transfer In combination with the IFC 300 signal converter the OPTIFLUX 2000 is suitable for custody transfer applications. It meets the requirements of OIML R49 and can be verified according to Annex MI-001 of the Measuring Instruments Directive (MID) / UK Regulation 2016. All water meters for legal metrology purposes in Europe require certification under the MID. The EC type examination certificate for the OPTIFLUX 2300 is valid for the compact and the remote version and applies for forward and reverse flow.

1.3 Measuring principle An electrically conductive fluid flows inside an electrically insulated pipe through a magnetic field. This magnetic field is generated by a current, flowing through a pair of field coils. Inside of the fluid, a voltage U is generated: U=v*k*B*D in which: v = mean flow velocity k = factor correcting for geometry B = magnetic field strength D = inner diameter of flowmeter The signal voltage U is picked off by electrodes and is proportional to the mean flow velocity v and thus the flow rate Q. A signal converter is used to amplify the signal voltage, filter it and...
