Magnetic Flow Meters

• To bring the customer a real-time monitoring and management capability, Yokogawa installed STARDOM (FCJ), flow meters, and transmitters at key points throughout the distribution network.
• The STARDOM FCJ controllers achieved an accurate water loss management system while keeping the running costs to a minimum.

• Bali's water treatment plant decided to employ the latest reliable control system in order to increase availability and quality of operation.
• Centralized control system using FAST/TOOLS provides the sophisticated and flexible operation.

With the high temperatures, pressures, and levels of dissolved organics that are encountered, the ADMAG AXG flow meter design is ideal for use in all phases of the chemical recovery process.

Boosting efficiency in Chlor-Alkali Plants with the ADMAG Magnetic Flowmeter provides accurate, stable flow measurement for Brine and Caustic in Chlor-Alkali electrolyzer cells, improving production efficiency and reducing energy consumption.

Challenge: The customer's existing measurement device was disturbed by vibration and could not be compensated or corrected by the product that was installed.

Angel Yeast Co., Ltd. is a leading global player in the yeast and deep-processed products industry, with production bases in 13 cities worldwide. Their yeast series products account for over 17% of the global market, ranking second globally.
In their production process, additives like nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium are crucial, requiring accurate measurement and stabilization to ensure the final product meets specifications. Yokogawa proposed the AXG electromagnetic flowmeter as a solution, providing dual-frequency excitation for both rapid response and reduced noise.

Yokogawa’s latest generation of ADMAG AXG Series is the most suitable magnetic flowmeter with adhesion level diagnosis and dual-frequency excitation method provides stable flow measurement even under high flow noise in the severe applications like the flow of aluminum slurries.

Questionable flow and conductivity measurements during CIP could raise questions about food quality and safety.

Flow performance extends cell membrane life with accurate, reliable, and stable performance - saving millions of dollars in membrane repair costs, reducing instrument maintenance costs and production downtime, and production loss.

The ADMAG AXR employs the patented “Dual Frequency Excitation Method.” This unique technology combines the best properties of low-frequency excitation to enable a stable measurement and high-frequency excitation to deliver excellent noise immunity. As a result, the AXR can suppress process-generated noise to secure zero stability without sacrificing fast response time. In addition, the AXR achieves the same level of noise immunity as a 4-wire circuit under varying fluid conditions and delivers the performance necessary to meet the requirements for control loop applications.

The condiment facility staff had success with Yokogawa’s ADMAG TI AXG magnetic flowmeters in other applications. When they learned EtherNet/IP communication was now offered on the ADMAG TI - AXG, they chose to use the Yokogawa magmeter solution on the mustard grinding lines.

Yokogawa's ceramic liner can offer the customer superior resistance to thermal shock and the failure that can occur due to liner cracking. This is due to Yokogawa's use of 99.9% pure Al2O3 for the liner.

Accurate and durable magnetic flow meters (magmeters) were difficult to maintain in the process as the corrosive and abrasive nature of the process degraded their operation. That led to leaks that not only reduced the flow but also contaminated the product and the magmeters. Since Sigura maintained strong vigilance, the company needed to replace some magmeters monthly...

In order to reduce emissions of air pollutants such as sulfur oxides (SOx) and nitrogen oxides (NOx), power plants have installed flue gas desulfurization systems known as scrubbers.

Yokogawa’s ADMAG TI - AXG magnetic flowmeter (magmeter) with EtherNet/IP is used to measure the water moving from the pump to the snow cannons. The accurate measurement allows the operator to monitor and control the water in the mixture to produce artificial snow with the perfect consistency.

Using recycled oil as an energy source poses a challenge due to its inconsistent composition and potential impurities. Conventional flowmeter technologies are impractical in such cases. The CA Series, however, reliably and stably measures the flow of recycled oil mixed with water.

Read this eBook to learn how to best leverage the latest measurement instrumentation to avoid incidents and improve productivity. You will also find valuable information about overcoming common CIP challenges and stories of success.

A Basic Guide to Accurate & Reliable Flow Measurement.

Smart devices, like Yokogawa’s line of Total Insight transmitters and flowmeters contribute to Digital Transformation during operations and throughout the lifecycle of the instrument.

After having undergone several improvements, magnetic flow meters have become highly accurate and reliable and are widely used in the industrial instrument field today. Magnetic flow meters consist of a detector and a converter, with the principle of the detector adopting Faraday's electromagnetic induction law.

Recent or pending air pollution legislation to reduce the amount of air pollutants is increasing worldwide. In the U.S., The Clean Air Act address numerous air quality problems. One of these problems is acid rain (much of which falls in Canada) caused by sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide emissions from fossil-fueled power plants and other industrial and transportation sources.
