How do electromagnetic flowmeters handle corrosive media in wastewater treatment plant applications?

Wastewater treatment plants present challenging measurement conditions with corrosive chemicals, suspended solids, and biological contaminants. LGF electromagnetic flowmeters are specifically engineered to withstand these harsh environments while maintaining measurement accuracy.

• Electrode materials: Hastelloy C or Tantalum electrodes provide superior corrosion resistance against aggressive chemicals
• Liner selection: PTFE or polyurethane rubber linings resist chemical attack and abrasion
• Grounding protection: Dual grounding system prevents stray current interference common in treatment facilities
• Self-cleaning capability: Electrode cleaning function removes biological fouling and chemical deposits
• Hazardous area certification: Explosion-proof designs meet safety requirements in classified zones

Integration with EC60 RTU systems enables real-time monitoring of influent and effluent flows, supporting process optimization and regulatory compliance in wastewater treatment operations.
