IV. Working principle


The MGG/KL-DCB portable electromagnetic velocity/flow meter depends on the
Faraday's law of electromagnetic induction. The conductive liquid cut the magnetic line
and cause induced electromotive force when do the direction perpendicular to the
magnetic field lines in the alternating magnetic field along the measuring pipe. So we
install a pair of electrodes on the pipe wall which orthogonal with sounding pipe axis and
magnetic line. The electrodes can detect the induced electromotive force. It should be
directly proportional with the flow. Then the liquid’s flow will be exported by the detection.
The induced electromotive force signal will be converted to standard DC current
signal(0~10)mA, (4~20)mA or (0~5)kHz frequency output which was directly proportional
with flow signal by amplification of converter. So the measurement comes out.
The velocity equation

E=KBD V (K is induced electric potential magnification);


E--- Induced potential (V);
V --- Mean velocity when the fluid cross the electrode surface in range;
B --- Magnetic induction intensity;
D --- Induction electric potential spacing.

Nonlinear velocity correction function instruction:


Nonlinear velocity correction function adopts below low velocity(0.5m/s) linear correction
in principle. It has eight section correction including eight velocity point and eight
correction coefficient.
Nonlinear correction coefficient means to be revised base on the original sensor

calibration coefficient. So please turn off nonlinear correction function and mark the
sensor factor, then turn on the function. According to nonlinear section of sensor,
measuring the velocity and correcting the setting. If the setting is suitable, no need to
calibrate.
Suppose: The original velocity is rate which has been calculated according to sensor
factor. The correcting velocity is rate which has been nonlinear corrected. Then the
velocity after correction has correspondence as following;
Notice: When setting velocity, please keep the relation as following:
Velocity 1>Velocity 2>Velocity 3>Velocity 4>Velocity 5.....>velocity 8

VIII. Instrument usage


8.1 Velocity measuring
This instrument is advanced measuring instruments uses for conductive liquid, simple
operation and convenient maintenance. Please connect the sensor and display exactly
and turn on the power on the display. Then put the velocity sensor into the measuring
channel point.

8.2 Flow measuring


The flow measuring needs to input channel measuring parameters: velocity measuring
margin, velocity measuring height, side slope ratio, channel bottom width, water
depth(water level adjustment, Ⅲ-Model water level can be automatically collected by

9
depth sensor).
Note: The measuring method includes one-point method and multi-point method. The
one-point method choose 0.6 times water depth and 0.5 times channel width. The multi-
point method choose as following:

8.2.1 Velocity distribution line within velocity of vertical distribution and vertical direction
of the water depth(Table 1):
Table 1
Water width(m) Vertical number
>0 and <0.5 3-4
>0.5 and <1 4-5
>1 and <3 5-8
>3 and <5 8-10
>5 and <10 10-20
>10 >20

Note: The sensor must be flooded about 10cm when close to surface. Please according

10
to the actual need to choose.

8.2.4 Flow calculation


8.2.4.1 Flow calculation between measuring point line

8.2.4.2 Line flow calculation

8.2.4.3 Side wall flow calculation

Note: KR is side wall factor, Please refer to the table 4:


Table 4
Side wall type KR
Smooth without vegetation(concrete, steel or cement surface) 0.8-0.9
Brick without vegetation 0.7
Rough surface without plenty of vegetation 0.5-0.6

8.3 Measurement requirements


①Please try best to select point on flat area of channel or river. Avoid gate, curve,
inlet/outlet and ramp. The straight channel section should be long enough(upstream is
10-15 times channel width, downstream is 2-5 times channel width). So the flow

11
distribution will be more stable and uniform. And the data will be more accuracy.
②Velocity sensor position: Please point the measuring head to the upstream and ensure
the velocity sensor parallels to the flow direction. Waiting a moment for stable running of
sensor then resend the data. Avoid the primary interference signal input and eliminate the
electrode oxide film interference.

8.4 Operating mode


There are two operating modes: “Time” select 0 is manual continuity operating mode.
When select “Time” and period measuring fit “Interval”, it will be period-interruption mode.
Continuous mode is manual interval period measuring design. When the flow display is
working, the operating time will stop anytime. Then manually enter the next period
measurement. The display backlight will automatically turn off after 60 seconds without
any operation. If you want to turn on the display backlight, please press any button on
keyboard; The flow display will turn off automatically after 30 minutes without any
operation under power-save mode. And it will last work till battery out without power-save
mode(auto turn off select 0).

8.5 Zero calibration(automatic zero setting)


Zero calibration: Long press (+) enter the parameter setting mode and find “Zero
calibration”, then press “Set” to automatic zero setting. Then there will be white line under
the “00”, press “+” and modify “00” to “01” and press “set” again. The automatic zero
setting will be turn on. The automatic zero setting will cost 60 seconds. The screen time
digital will display from 60 to 0. The automatic zero setting complete. Zero calibration is
necessary when needs and verify. Please make sure the medium statically and surround
the electrode. The vessel must be non-conductive material(Picture as following for
example)
Note: Operating instruction:
1. The electrode should be in the center of medium. Metal portion touch the medium.
2. Please keep static during zero calibration both medium and sensor.

8.6 Historical data record and query

Ⅱ/Ⅲ-Model display can record 1000 items historical data.

8.6.1 Data record and storage


The instrument will record internal storage number automatically. You can set original
value in “Setting”, each measuring will add 1 automatically and cover the current value

12
after 1000 items.

8.6.2 Date query


Please turn on the display and keep normal measuring status, press “+” or “-” to page up
and down, find the date query and press “set” select record number, then press “Exit”.
The program will enter data query display. You can use “+” or “-” to inquire all the
historical data. Each date has number, so you can check the date according to order
number. If you want to find some items. Please enter the number in data setting menu
then exit the parameter setting status. It will display this item. When you complete, please
press “EXIT” to quit data query display and get back to normal measuring working status.
