Magphant Measuring
System

Areas of application
Flow information is often required to
ensure a process is running correctly
and that preset limit values are not
exceeded. The Magphant flow monitor
reliably provides the necessary informa-

tion on flow in your piping. The electromagnetic principle used determines the
flow velocity of the conductive liquid at
the tip of the sensor.

Measuring principle
In accordance with Faradays law of
electromagnetic induction, a voltage is
induced in a conductor that is moved
through a magnetic field. In the electromagnetic principle of measurement the
flowing and electrically conductive fluid
represents the moving conductor. The

Function

induced voltage is proportional to the


flow velocity and is fed to the amplifier
by a pair of electrodes.
Microprocessor-controlled electronics,
with a stable zero-point, convert the
voltage into an analogue 4...20-mA
output signal.

Orientation in the piping


The Magphant is best mounted in vertical piping.
If the piping runs horizontally, the
Magphant is to be mounted to the side.
This mounting procedure ensures that
the electrodes are always immersed in
flowing fluid.

Caution!
Never weld the weld stub to the pipe
with the Magphant in place.

Mounting in steel piping

Weld stub for DN 25


For DN 25 piping, the weld stub has the
appropriate radius to match the diameter.
Opening in the piping: = 23 mm
Place the weld stub on the opening
and weld it at right angles to the axis of
the piping.

ti036y07

Weld stub
The Magphant is mounted using the
weld stub supplied. Two different versions are available, depending on nominal diameter:

ti036y11

Weld stub for DN 40


For DN 40...300 piping, the weld stub
has a graduated scale to ensure that
the stub can be correctly positioned for
mounting.
Opening in the piping: = 30 mm
Insert the weld stub into the opening,
with the marking (according to the nominal diameter) flush against the outer wall
of the piping and weld it at right angles
to the axis of the piping.

Mounting in plastic piping

Adapter piece for plastic piping


For mounting in plastic piping,
Magphant is delivered with an adapter
piece and a plastic union nut, with
which Magphant can be mounted in
a T-fitting (DN 15...DN 50) or a plastic
weld stub (DN 65).
The T-fittings or plastic weld stubs can
be obtained from Georg Fischer (+GF+).
ti036y19

Mounting Instructions

The T-fittings are available in PVC-U,


PP and PVDF.
The weld stubs are available in PVC-U,
PP and PE and must be adapted
according to the diagram opposite and
the given diameter. The length L can be
calculated from the following formula:
L = 40 - S - E
S = wall thickness of the pipe

Operational safety
Comprehensive self-monitoring of the
measuring system assures high safety. Any error messages that occur (process errors, instrument system
errors) are immediately signalled via
the current and relay outputs.
The Magphant measuring system
fulfils all general requirements for

electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)


according to CE (EN 50081-1-2 and
EN 50082-1-2).
Protection type IP 66 is standard
(DIN 40050).
Magphant fulfils the EU directives for
low-voltage and EMC and bears the
CE mark.

Electrical Connection
Current output
The Magphant has an analogue output
which is proportional to the flow.
The 4...20-mA output signal can be
used for other systems such as a PLCs,
controllers, etc.

Current output 4...20 mA


Load RL = 750 max.
Relay output

75 V DC / 0.5 A
60 V AC / 0.4 A

Power supply 20...30 V DC

Relay output
The Magphant also has a dry changeover contact which is especially
suitable for monitoring purposes.
Exceeding the range of set limit values
(min./max. fail-safe) is indicated via this
relay output.
