Innovative and customized flow measuring technology for the water industry

Whether drinking water, industrial water or wastewater, whether in urban or rural areas – water has become a scarce resource due to worldwide population growth and the associated urbanization. The future aims of sustainable water management are therefore clearly defined: adequate conveying, areawide distribution, correct billing and finally, optimal treatment. Decisive to this is accurate and reliable water flow measurement.

The new Promag 400 and Promag 800 from Endress+Hauser offers excellent advantages precisely in such applications ensuring cost and time-saving operation.

Innovative flow measuring technology The Promag 400 electromagnetic flowmeter is based on over 35 years of industry experience. Important requirements for the water management industry such as accuracy, approvals, remote operation or data security are met by Promag without any compromise. The fields of application are correspondingly varied:

  • Volumetric flow measurement of drinking water, industrial water, irrigation water or wastewater
  • Applications in small plant engineering or in large-scale projects
  • Measurement in distribution networks, pump systems or in pits
  • Monitoring, regulation, billing and leak detection

The seamless system integration via HART, PROFIBUS DP (in preparation) and EtherNet/IP (in preparation) is just as much second nature as the fast commissioning via the menuguided, intuitive operation in over 15 display languages. The standard, integrated Webserver in the Promag 400 provides one-of-a-kind options for service. Examples include simple access to device and diagnostic data as well as onsite configuration of functions without additional interfaces. Another feature is the ability to upload and download configuration data for commissioning other identical measuring points. Self-diagnosis functions and a servicefriendly data storage concept (HistoROM DAT) guarantee seamless operation around the clock.

Furthermore, the battery-powered Promag 800 makes versatile and autonomous use possible, even at locations without line power. With the integrated GSM/GPRS modem, measured values and diagnostic data can be queried or sent via e-mail or SMS worldwide.

Sensors for every application

All three sensors – Promag L, W and D – possess internationally recognized drinking water approvals (KTW/W270, ACS, NSF 61, WRAS BS 6920) as well as approvals for custody transfer in accordance with the water meter standards MI-001 and OIML R49. For installation in piping systems, users can select between various nominal diameters (DN 25/1 to 2400/90"), connections (flange, lap joint flange, wafer) and linings (polyurethane, hard rubber, PTFE).

As a fully welded version in protection form IP68 (Type 6P enclosure) and with certified corrosion protection (EN ISO 12944), the Promag W sensor offers the unique option of long-term installation underwater, underground, in a saline environment or in regions with greatly fluctuating humidity or temperature.

Users benefit multiple times over with Promag 400 and Promag 800:

  • Accurate billing of the supplied water volumes
  • Assured compliance with guidelines and regulations
  • Reduction of operating costs by means of optimum process automation
