  • Wafer style insertable magnetic flowmeter with collapsible petals
    Patent number: 9222815
    Abstract: A magnetic flowmeter for measuring flow of a process fluid includes a meter body having an opening formed therein. The meter body is configured to be inserted in-line between process piping which carries the process fluid. A moveable extension is coupled to the meter body and configured to extend into the process piping. A coil of wire is carried by the extension and configured to generate a magnetic field. A pair of electrodes sense an EMF in the process fluid generated as a function of the applied magnetic field and flow of the process fluid.

  • Magnetic flowmeter
    Patent number: 9027418
    Abstract: A magnetic flowmeter for sensing process fluid flow is provided. The flowmeter includes a tube configured to receive the process fluid flow therethrough. A plurality of electrodes is disposed to contact process fluid. At least one electromagnetic coil is disposed proximate the tube. Flowmeter electronics are configured to drive a current through at least one electromagnetic coil and to sense a signal developed across a plurality of electrodes disposed to contact process fluid. A flexible circuit module is disposed proximate the tube, and has at least one flexible circuit containing a plurality of electrical traces electrically coupled to the flowmeter electronics. The at least one electromagnetic coil includes a first coil in the flexible circuit module that is coupled to the electrical traces.
