This standard describes the principle and main design features of industrial electromagnetic flowmeters for measuring the flow of conductive liquids filled in closed pipes, and deals with their installation, operation, characteristics and calibration. This standard does not specify the safety protection requirements for flowmeters used in hazardous environments. It is not suitable for the measurement of magnetic slurry and liquid metal, nor for occasions with hygienic requirements. This standard includes two types of flowmeters, AC excitation type and pulsed DC excitation type.
