150 to 600 mm
( 6” to 24”)
Electromagnetic Flowmeter for
Partially-filled Pipes
Introduction
The LF502 electromagnetic flowmeter uses Faraday’s
Law of electromagnetic induction in the same way as
conventional electromagnetic flowmeters to measure
the flow rate. Position of electrodes in the LF502 is so
designed that it can be used even in a partially-filled
pipe to measure the flow rate.
Improved functional magnetic field distribution tech-
nique enables a high-precision flow measurement con-
tinually from low-level to fully-filled flow conditions.
This eliminates unnecessary piping work such as lifting
the downstream pipe section to fill the detector pipe.
Compared with flowmeters measuring the flow rate by
means of flow level, the obstructionless LF502 flow-
meter does not usually allow mud, sands and other
solid sediment stay at the bottom of the detector pipe
and is unaffected by wave or floating solids on the fluid
surface.

Fluid-level range:
x 30 mm (1 1/4”) to fully-filled condition for Meter
sizes 150 mm (6”) to 300 mm (12”)
The AF100 hand-held terminal or the Model 275 HART
communicator can be used to communicate with the
flowmeter from remote places using the HART com-
munications protocol. See the communications output
specifications for details about the HART protocol.

(2) Required straight pipe length
(1) Be sure to use thick walled steel conduit (22
mm) for signal and excitation cable wiring
between the detector and converter. The
conduit screw is R(PT)1/2. Use flexible
conduits at the cable outlets of the detector as
needed.
The straight pipe length is required to prevent
uneven flow velocity and a disturbance on the
fluid surface in the detector pipe. The required
straight pipe length should be as follows:
• Downstream side: L = 5D minimum
• Upstream side:
where,
L = straight pipe length (straight pipeline length
+ half length of detector pipe length)
L = 10D minimum
(2) Make the grounding wire as short as possible.
Do not use a common ground shared with other
equipment where earth current may flow. An
independent earth ground is recommended.
