Abstract: A method for a production of a heat exchanger for an inline measuring device includes the steps of: producing first opening provided for the connection of the heat exchanger to a temperature control piping system in a first sheet part serving for the production of one of the heat exchanger sheets; laying the first sheet part on a second sheet part serving likewise for the production of one of the heat exchanger sheets; producing an edge connection seam and inner connection locations by welding of the two superimposed sheet parts; introducing fluid through a first opening into a chamber remaining between the two sheets; superimposing a static pressure on the fluid in the chamber which exceeds a static pressure of a surrounding atmosphere to such a degree that an expansion of the chamber is initiated; and plastically deforming material of the thinner of the two sheet parts by expanding the chamber by means of the fluid with superimposed pressure.

Abstract: An electronics housing comprises a housing basic body having a cavity, especially a single cavity. The housing basic body includes a side wall laterally bordering the cavity, an open end and a rear wall bounding the cavity on an end lying opposite the open end and remote therefrom. Also included is a housing lid releasably connected to the housing basic body on the open end and sealing the housing basic body; and an intermediate floor. The intermediate floor, in the case of the electronics housing of the invention, forms: a gap extending between an inner surface of the side wall of the housing basic body and a lateral surface of the intermediate floor facing the inner surface; and two housing chambers in the cavity of the housing basic body separated from one another by the intermediate floor. A first housing chamber is arranged on a first side of the intermediate floor facing the housing lid and a second housing chamber is arranged on a second side of the intermediate floor facing away from the housing lid.

Abstract: The apparatus includes at least one heat exchanger secured on an inline measuring device. Temperature-control fluid flows through a heat exchanger, at least at times during operation, for the purpose of transporting heat. The apparatus additionally includes securement structure for the, especially releasable, fixing of the heat exchanger externally on the inline measuring device. The heat exchanger has an inner wall, especially a trough- or dish-shaped inner wall, contacting the inline measuring device externally at least partially flushly, as well as an outer wall fixed to the inner wall. The outer wall is connected with the inner wall via a connecting seam running along an edge region and sealing against escape of the temperature-control fluid, and via a plurality of, especially point, or ring, shaped, inner connection locations, which are arranged spaced from one another in an inner region at least partially enclosed by the edge connection seam.

Abstract: The apparatus includes at least one heat exchanger (30) secured on the inline measuring device. Temperature-control fluid flows through the heat exchanger (30), at least at times during operation, for the purpose of transporting heat. The apparatus additionally includes securement means (50, 60) for the, especially releasable, fixing of the heat exchanger (30) externally on the inline measuring device (1). The heat exchanger (30) has an inner wall (32), especially a trough- or dish-shaped inner wall, contacting the inline measuring device (1) externally at least partially flushly, as well as an outer wall (31) fixed to the inner wall (32).

Abstract: This galvanic electrode of a flow sensor of an electromagnetic flowmeter for measuring the volumetric flow rate of an electrically conductive liquid flowing in a measuring tube is practically absolutely fluid-tight inserted in the wall of the measuring tube and has a highly constant wetting surface. The electrode comprises a shank having a first portion which is fitted fluid-tightly in a hole in the wall, an end face and a second portion having a smaller diameter than the hole and the first portion. A wetting surface formed by the end face and a second portion of the electrode shank. This second portion forms a gap between the surface of the hole. The gap is sufficiently wide and the surface of the hole has a low surface tension so that the liquid will penetrate into and fill the gap, and the wetting surface will remain constant under all operating conditions of the flowmeter.

Abstract: For the low-cost manufacture of differently dimensioned saddle coils (2) which have good long-term dimensional stability, although because of the thickness of the wire used for the saddle coil, the dimensional stability cannot be achieved with this wire alone, and which fit differently curved surfaces and have a number of turns, use is made of a prefabricated wire having a first insulating-varnish coating directly thereon and a second insulating-varnish coating applied to the first coating, the second coating having a baking temperature lower than the softening point of the first coating. The coil is wound on a coil form (1) to form a flat coil (21), the coil form being a prefabricated part of a flexible plastic which is dimensionally stable at the baking temperature. The flat coil is then fitted, together with the coil form (1), to the curved surface of a corresponding dummy to form a still dimensionally unstable saddle coil.

Abstract: To introduce an insulation (3) of desired thickness into a measuring tube (1) of an electromagnetic flow sensor at low cost forming a tight joint, said measuring tube comprising a metal tube (2) having a respective metal flange (4, 5) at each end (21, 22),the respective metal flange (4, 5) at each end is slipped over the outside (23) of the metal tube in such a way that a front side (41, 51) of the metal flange projects beyond the end of the metal tube by an amount at least equal to the thickness of the insulation (3), and a rear side (45, 55) of the metal flange is permanently and tightly joined to the outside (23) of the metal tube. Before being slipped on, each metal flange is provided, from the front side, with a flute (42, 52) which forms a first annular groove (43, 53) at its inner end. A mandrel whose diameter is determined by the desired thickness of the insulation is introduced into the lumen of the metal tube.

Abstract: An electromagnetic flow measuring tube is manufactured by forming an inner member which consists substantially of plastic and thereafter coating the inner member with a material which has a lower coefficient of thermal expansion and a higher mechanical strength than the material of the inner member to form an outer member which surrounds the inner member in a form-stabilizing stiffening manner. Thus, when the inner member is formed from plastic in hot condition, as for instance by injection molding, it can cool down and solidify in a relaxed condition, so that it is free of intrinsic mechanical stresses when the outer member is applied. This eliminates the danger of a detachment of the inner member from the outer member and of subsequent occurrence of cracks in the material of the inner member. Mounting flanges, stiffening webs and other structural elements are integrally formed with the plastic inner member. This permits a simple and economic manufacture of flow measuring tubes having a complicated shape.
