1.1 Product Description
HTMC LDE electromagnetic flow meters are intended for fluid measurement in most industries including
water, wastewater, food and beverage, pharmaceutical and chemical.
……….
There are two basic components of electromagnetic flow meter: 1)The Detector, which includes the flow
tube, isolating liner and measuring electrodes, and 2) The Converter, which is the electronic device
responsible for signal processing, flow calculation, display and output signals.
The materials of construction of the wetted parts (liner and electrodes) should be appropriate for the
specifications on the intended type of service. Review of the compatibilities consistent with the
specifications is recommended.
All electromagnetic flow meters are factory tested and calibrated. A calibration certificate is included in theshipment of each meter.

1.2 Unpacking and Inspection
Upon receipt, examine your meter for visible damage. The meter is a precision measuring instrument and
should be handled carefully. Remove the protective plugs and caps for a thorough inspection. If any items
are damaged or missing, contact us.
Make sure the flow meter model meets your specific needs. For your future reference, it might be useful to
record this information on nameplate in the manual in case it becomes unreadable on the meter.
Transportation and Handling
Do not lift the detector from the Converter
housing, the junction box or the connecting cable.
Use lifting lugs for larger sizes is recommended.
Very large meter sizes are packed and crated with
the meter laying on its side for shipping safety
and stability reasons. In order to lift the meter in
vertical position, it's recommended to use a sling
rigged method as shown below.
If using a forklift, do not lift the detector from its
body between the flanges. The housing could be
accidentally dented and permanent damage
could be caused to the internal coil assemblies.
Warning: NEVER introduce the forklift,
chains, wire slings or any other sharp object
inside the flow tube for lifting or handling
purpose. This could permanently damage the
isolating liner and could render the meter
inoperable.
