MEDIUM FLOW RATE MEASURING AND/ OR CONTROLLING DEVICE

摘要

The invention relates to a device for measuring and/or controlling the flow rate of a medium (11) flowing through a measuring tube (2) in the longitudinal direction of the axis (10) thereof comprising a magnetic unit (12) generating a magnetic field crossing said measuring tube (2) and running substentially perpendicularly to said measuring tube (2) longitudinal axis (10), two measuring electrodes (3, 4) which are galvanically or capacitively-coupled with the measurable medium (11) and are arranged in such a manner that a measuring voltage generated by said medium (11) is induced therein and an evaluating and adjusting unit (7) which delivers information about the volume flow of the measurable medium (11) in the measuring tube (2) by means of the measuring voltage induced into the measuring electrode(s) (3, 4), wherein connections lines (5, 6) or signal lines (15, 16) are provided for guiding measuring signals between the measuring electrodes and the evaluating and adjusting unit (7). In order to arrange said signal lines (15, 16) in a space-saving manner said invention is characterised in that the signal lines (15, 16) are disposed in a substentially flat structure.
