IFC 050 Signal Converter for Electromagnetic Flowmeter

Brand: Krohne

The electromagnetic signal converter IFC 050 is a perfect choice for measuring volumetric flow in various kinds of applications in the water industry but also in the food and beverage business. 

The signal converter can be combined with the flow sensors OPTIFLUX 1000, 2000, 4000, 6000 and the WATERFLUX 3000. 

The output represents measured values for flow, mass and conductivity.
Features
  • An active pulse output for a simple system, like driving an electro-mechanical counter
  • RS485 Modbus communication with a data processing system
  • Extra insulation of the electronic device and housing for high performance in areas with extreme humidity and chances for flooding
  • Cost-effective flow measurement for a wide range of process conditions and still a very acceptable degree of accuracy
