An inductive sensor is a device that uses the principle of
electromagnetic induction to detect or measure objects. An inductor develops a magnetic field when a current flows through it; alternatively, a current will flow through a circuit containing an inductor when the magnetic field through it changes. This effect can be used to detect metallic objects that interact with a magnetic field. Non- metallic substances such as liquids or some kinds of dirt do not interact with the magnetic field Magnetic sensors detect moving ferrous metal. The simplest magnetic sensor consists of a wire coiled around a permanent magnet. A ferrous object approaching the sensor changes magnetic flux through the coil, generating a voltage at the coil terminals. Working principle Working of magmeter Magnetic flow meters measure the flow rate of a liquid by measuring the voltage generated as the liquid flows through a magnetically-charged field. This operating principle is based on Faraday’s law of electromagnetic induction, which states that a voltage will be induced in a conductor moving through a magnetic field. Magnetic flow meter A magnetic flow meter (mag- meter) is a volumetric flow meter which does not have any moving parts and is ideal for wastewater applications or any dirty liquid which is conductive or water based. Magnetic flowmeters will generally not work with hydrocarbons, distilled water and many non- aqueous solutions). Magnetic flowmeters are also ideal for applications where low pressure drop and low maintenance are required. Block Diagram https://www.youtube.com/watch? v=f949gpKdCI4
