Introduction 

The electromagnetic flowmeter uses Faraday’s Law of 
electromagnetic induction to measure the process flow. 
The device consists of two units: a detector, through 
which the fluid to be measured flows and in which 
low-level signals proportional to flow rates are 
obtained; and a converter, which supplies excitation 
current to the detector, and amplifies the signals from 
the detector and then processes and converts the signals 
into the 4–20 mAdc current signal or communication 
signal. With the unique patented 

Mount-Anywhere

 

magnetic field distribution technology, the meter is 
highly immune to upstream flow disturbances. 
Combined with a multi-functional converter LF620 
(combined type) or LF622 (separate type) equipped 
with its patented 

Noise-Sentry

 original noise- 

suppression circuit and advanced 

algorithms

. The 

LF430 has a very high tolerance to noise, giving the unit 
a very stable output even for slurry fluid measurement. 
IR (Infrared) switches enable parameter setting of the 
converter without removing the cover. Flow direction 
can be set in either way, and its unique 128 x 128 dot 
matrix LCD display allows the LCD to be rotated 
electronically to 90, 180 and 270 degrees without 
opening the cover. The terminal block in LCD side 
make easy to wire in case of the combined type. 

*   HART protocol (Highway Addressable Remote Transducer) is a 

communication protocol for industrial sensors recommended 
by the HCF (HART Communication Foundation). 

 

** DevComm2000 Smart Device Communicator available 
through TIC for performing HART device configurations on 
PC or laptop. 

PROFIBUS is the communications protocol for factory and 
process automation that the PROFIBUS Organization 
recommends. Instead of analog control with a conventional 
analog signal (4-20 mA), it is fieldbus which digitizes all 
signals. Flowmeters support PROFIBUS-PA.

  

Modbus is the communication protocol that Modicon Inc. 
developed.  Physical layer is RS485.
