Applications

The 8700 Magnetic Flowmeter Systems provide obstructionless flow measurement that is ideal for metering any conductive fluid. A wide choice of construction materials provides compatibility with virtually all applications, from highly corrosive liquids to fibrous slurries often considered difficult to measure with other devices. Rosemount Magnetic Flowmeters offer the benefit of measuring flow in a package virtually unaffected by density, temperature, pressure, and viscosity change.

Availability

With a wide range of liner and electrode materials available, the Rosemount 8700 Series Magnetic Flowmeter family is suitable for virtually any conductive liquid application. Rosemount Magnetic Flowmeters offer the benefit of measuring flow in a package unaffected by density, temperature, pressure, and viscosity change.

Step 2: Liner Material Selection

Liner	Notes	Temp Limits	Type and Line Sizes
PFA	BEST FLUOROPOLYMER Excellent resistance to chemicals and abrasion. Suitable for any application.	-20 to 350°F (-29 to 177°C	Flange 15 - 350 mm 0.5 - 14 inch	Wafer 4 - 8 mm 0.15 - 0.3 inch
PTFE	BETTER FLUOROPOLYMER More cost effective than PFA. Excellent chemical resistance, but less abrasion resistance than PFA.	-20 to 350°F (-29 to 177°C	Flanged 15 - 900 mm 0.5 - 36 inch	Wafer 15 - 200 mm 0.5 - 8 inch
ETFE	GOOD FLUOROPOLYMER Similar chemical and abrasion resistance to PTFE, but a lower maxium temperature an more expensive.	-20 to 300°F (-29 to 149°C)	Flanged 15 - 400 mm 0.5 - 16 inch	Wafer 15 - 200 mm 0.5 - 8 inch
Polyurethane	Typically applied to clean water (no chemicals). Abrasion resistant to slurries with small particles.	0 to 140°F (-18 to 60°C)	Flanged 15 - 900 mm 0.5 - 36 inch
Neoprene	Typically applied to water and sea water. Abrasion resistant to slurries with small particles.	0 to 185°F (-18 to 85°C)	Flanged 80 - 1800 mm* 1.5 - 72 inch
Linatex	Typically applied to mining slurries, abrasion resistant to larger debris.	0 to 158°F (-18 to 70°C)	Flanged 80 - 900 mm 1.5 - 36 inch

Step 3: Electrode Type and Material Selection

	Electrode Type	Application Notes
	Button	Standard electrode design. Use for most applications, especially where abrasion is a concern. Has fair resistance to coating which can be improved by properly sizing sensor.
	Bullet-nose	Use where coating is a concern and no solids are present. Bullet-nose electrode should not be used in abrasive or slurry applications as the particles will result in increased process noise on the electrodes.

Electrode Material		Application Notes
316L SST		Standard electrode material. Compatible with most low concentration water based applications. Avoid using stainless in higher concentration acid applications.
Nickel Alloy 276		Use in medium to high concentration acids where SST is not acceptable. Use in applications with high chloride concentrations, such as sea water.
Platinum (80% Platinum, 20% Iridium)		Ideal for liquor applications found in pulp and paper industry. Also ideal as a spare electrode option to cover nearly every application in a plant. Compatible with nearly every process fluid.
Tantalum		Ideal for high concentration acid flows such as hydrochloric and hydrofluoric acids.
Titanium		Ideal for high concentration caustic (base) applications such as sodium and potassium hydroxides.

Step 4: Transmitter Selection
