MAGNETIC FLOWMETER

摘要

A magnetic flowmeter (300) for sensing process fluid flow is provided. The flowmeter includes a tube (200, 319) configured to receive the process fluid flow therethrough. A plurality of electrodes (216) is disposed to contact process fluid. At least one electromagnetic coil (210, 212) is disposed proximate the tube (200, 319). Flowmeter electronics (130, 148) are configured to drive a current through at least one electromagnetic coil and to sense a signal developed across a plurality of electrodes (216) disposed to contact process fluid. A flexible circuit module (220) is disposed proximate the tube, and has at least one flexible circuit containing a plurality of electrical traces electrically coupled to the flowmeter electronics. The at least one electromagnetic coil (210, 212) includes a first coil in the flexible circuit module (220) that is coupled to the electrical traces.
