This assembly comes with the 6″ OPTIFLUX 4100 body, flow converter and 30′ cable.

6″ OPTIFLUX 4100 Body by KROHNE

The OPTIFLUX 4100 is an electromagnetic flowmeter (EMF) for a wide range of standard process applications with aggressive and abrasive liquids. It enables reliable flow measurement even under harsh process conditions with temperatures up to +180°C / +356°F, low conductivity (≥5 µS/cm) and solid content (up to 10%). This makes the flowmeter particularly suitable for applications involving corrosive chemicals, sewage and drilling mud or mining sludge. Installation in measurement chambers subject to (constant) flooding is also possible using the optional IP68 / NEMA 6P rated version.

Unlike the basic version OPTIFLUX 4050, the OPTIFLUX 4100 features higher accuracy. It comes with a selection of chemically resistant liners and electrodes. Due to its full bore design without moving or intruding parts, there is no pressure loss and no maintenance required. A full on-site verification of the flowmeter without process interruption can be carried out using the OPTICHECK service tool.

The IFC 100 is a 4-wire electromagnetic signal converter. Combined with the flow sensors of the OPTIFLUX and WATERFLUX series it forms the OPTIFLUX 1100, OPTIFLUX 2100, OPTIFLUX 4100, OPTIFLUX 5100, OPTIFLUX 6100 and WATERFLUX 3100 electromagnetic flowmeters for standard applications with conductive liquids.

6″ Electromagnetic Flow Converter by KROHNE

The IFC 100 can be freely combined with KROHNE’s entire standard series of electromagnetic flowmeters. The IFC 100 was designed for applications requiring an economical measuring solution with a high level of technology.

KROHNE offers its customers a comprehensive application and process diagnostics package far beyond what device diagnostics normally offer.

These devices continually measure all decisive parameters and convey information about the condition of the device, the quality of the measured value and potential application errors. The user has a precise overview of the process at any given time –thus fulfilling from A to Z the constantly increasing requirements of an optimal process.

With its resistance measurement and noise measurement, the IFC 100 lays the foundation for even more process transparency and reliably reports about:

  • Gas bubbles and detection of solids
  • Changing or excessively low conductivity (e.g. during change of media or empty tube)
  • Deposits on electrodes
  • Electrode corrosion
  • Too high media or ambient temperature

IFC 100 for all standard applications- the most innovative converter line

  • Compact, remote field, wall-mounted and rack-mounted housing
  • With many sensor and process diagnostics for standard requirements
  • 4-wire, 4…20 mA, pulse, frequency, status, HART®
