Electromagnetic flowmeters are important measuring instruments used in water and wastewater processes. Reliable and accurate flow measurements are essential for effective management and monitoring of water and wastewater processes. Electromagnetic flowmeters offer an ideal solution to meet this need and help improve performance in water and wastewater processes.

What is an Electromagnetic Flowmeter?

Electromagnetic flowmeters use a technology based on electromagnetic principles to measure the flow rate of water. These devices directly measure the speed and volume of water within a pipeline. Electromagnetic flowmeters determine the flow rate by sensing changes in the conductivity of the water. Therefore, electromagnetic flowmeters are widely used in various applications such as drinking water, industrial water and wastewater.

Use of Hydrostatic Level Sensors in Water and Wastewater Processes

Hydrostatic level sensors play an important role in water and wastewater processes. By precisely monitoring the level of water or wastewater, these sensors improve process efficiency, optimize storage capacity and reduce flood risk. Reliable and precise level measurement is essential for effective management and monitoring of water and wastewater processes, and hydrostatic level sensors fulfill this need.

What are Hydrostatic Level Sensors?

Hydrostatic level sensors are measuring instruments that use the principle of hydrostatic pressure to measure the level of a liquid or wastewater. These sensors determine the level by measuring the difference in hydrostatic pressure from the surface of the water or wastewater to the point of measurement. They usually include a pressure sensor and an underwater hose or probe.
