3 Product Description The SPI Mag TM is a single point insertable electromagnetic closed conduit/full pipe flow meter. The FPI Mag TM is the successor of the Multi Mag. A Full Profile Insertion electromagnetic flow meter that has a fully submersed sensor with multiple electrode points to measure flow across the entire cross-section section of flow. Now Available 394L Bi-Directional Configuration

4 Product Offering Single Point Model Model 282L Multi-Point Models 395L Forward Flow 394L Bi-Directional Flow 1 2 Small Diameter Sensor For 4 4 to 24 1 for pipe sizes 2 2 to 30 2 for pipe sizes 6 6 to 96 Forward flow only Large Diameter Sensor For 24 to 138

5 Product Name The FPI Mag TM is a next generation product, the name changed from Multi Mag to FPI Mag TM. Why FPI Mag TM? Name change gave us an opportunity to highlight the Key Point of Difference. FPI Mag TM delivers a full profile of the flow similar to a full-bore meter by measuring across the diameter of the pipe. The SPI Mag TM is the same product as the Single Mag to change. Name was changed to align with the FPI Mag TM. Pull away from the pack. Differentiate and claim a position closer to a full-bore!

6 Principle of Operation FPI & SPI Mag: Based on Faraday s s Law of Electromagnetic Induction. When a conductive liquid moves through a magnetic field, it produces a voltage. The voltage is directly proportional to the velocity of the conductive medium. Michael Faraday Discovered Electromagnetic Induction in 1831

7 Principle of Operation SPI Mag: Sensor generates an electromagnetic field, creating a voltage in the water. Two velocity electrodes along with the ground electrodes measure this voltage. A faster water velocity produces a higher voltage. By accurately measuring this voltage, a velocity is determined. Ground Electrodes Velocity Electrodes Velocity Electrode Ground Electrodes 2 sensor 1 1 sensor

8 Principle of Operation FPI Mag: Multiple electromagnetic coils inside the sensor produce multiple magnetic fields, and multiple sets of stainless steel electrodes on the sensor s surface measure the voltage generated by the moving water.

9 Principle of Operation FPI Mag: Electrode pairs are located so that each measures an equal cross sectional area. The velocity measurements are added together, providing an area-weighted average velocity across the pipe centerline. Flow is then calculated by multiplying the average velocity by the cross- sectional area of the pipe.

16 NEW! Bi-Directional Applications Cont. Directional 394L Applications Storage Tanks This can be useful in both above ground or below ground water storage. s In order to understand the net flow into and out of a storage tank, bi-directional measurement is required. Water Selling or Sharing - It is common practice that nearby municipalities will often sell/share l/share water with one another. The water does not necessarily always flow in one direction in these cases. Supply and demand changes between two locations mean that the water w needs to flow in both directions. Multiple Water Sources - As cities look to diversify their water sources, it is becoming more common to have more than one source for a municipal plant s s water. Multiple sources of water often mean that water can be flowing in different directions. Ring Main Distribution Systems - In certain distribution configurations, the water flow is designed so that it can flow in both directions depending on real-time usage. Unknown Flow or Complex Plumbing Environments - Bi-directional measurement can be valuable for customers with complex plumbing configurations where e the flow is unknown. The 394L can be used to help municipal customers better understand water w flow in locations where they could not economically measure before. This can be especially valuable in systems that have been expanded since their original construction or in applications where the plant may have been retrofitted several times and the flow in some areas is simply not known. The compact design and ease of installation make the McCrometer s FPI Mag a perfect fit for these applications.
