Electromagnetic flow meter battery powered M5000

Electromagnetic Flow meter ModMAG™ M5000

Autonomous, battery-powered, highly accurate flow measurement even at low flow rates

stand-alone electromagnetic flow meter m5000

The M5000 excellent repeatability as well as the above average battery life makes this innovative water meter indispensable for the water market.

Typical applications are leak detection in water networks, water consumption measurements and irrigation plants.

The meter is best suited for applications without a power supply where exact consumption or flow rates are required.

The M5000 electromagnetic flow meter can also be used with an available power supply. The meter can be powered with mains voltage and in case of a mains failure, it is powered by an internal battery. Important data are therefore saved.

The M5000 electromagnetic flow meter with converter has been designed for harsh environmental measurement conditions. The meter has no moving parts and can be used to measure water containing particles like sand or gravel.

The M5000 electromagnetic flow meter features IP67 housing (IP68 optional), making it a reliable meter even when submerged.

The converter is equipped as standard with an internal data logging function, which can then be read out via infrared or RS232C links using the ModBus® RTU communication protocol. The collected data can also be retrieved via radio frequency or GSM/GPRS. The data can thus be centrally compiled and evaluated.

A portable console enables the M5000 flow meter to be checked during operation without interrupting the flow.

Technical specifications of the M5000 battery-powered electromagnetic flowmeter

Exceptional autonomy

Powered by internal 3.6V lithium batteries, this flowmeter offers an impressive 6 years' autonomy, extendable to 12 years as an option. For maximum continuity, a management board allows toggling between the internal batteries and an optional external (AC) source, ensuring uninterrupted operation even in the most demanding conditions.

Various sizes and user-friendly display

Available in a range of sizes from DN 15 to DN 600, with PTFE or hard rubber linings, this flowmeter is suitable for a variety of applications. The two-line LCD display offers a clear, intuitive user interface for easy programming via three front panel keys.

Exceptional Accuracy and Unmatched Repeatability

With a measuring range from 0.03 to 12 m/s, this flowmeter guarantees outstanding accuracy. At speeds above 0.5 m/s, accuracy is better than ±0.4% of the measured flow value, while at lower speeds it reaches ±2.5 mm/s. Repeatability of 0.1% ensures reliable consistency under all conditions.

Advanced functions and versatile connectivity

The flowmeter offers a full range of logic outputs, including four open-collector outputs, passive 30 VDC/20 mA, max. 100 Hz. Logic output functions include min/max alarms, flow direction detection and error signalling. Serial connectivity via RS232 and ModBus® RTU, as well as an infrared link (IRDA), offers flexibility in integrating the flowmeter into larger systems.

Rugged and Ready for Extreme Conditions

Housed in a cast aluminum enclosure offering IP67 protection (with IP68 option), this flowmeter is designed to withstand the harshest industrial environments. Cable inputs are provided by two M20 connectors for power supply and outputs, while sensor cable inputs use two M20 connectors for signals to the sensors.

Adaptability and extended operating temperature

A remote mounting version offers maximum flexibility, with a range of up to 30 meters. The operating temperature range from -20°C to 60°C enables use in a variety of industrial contexts.
