■ Overview
The SITRANS F M MAGFLO MAG 5100 W is an electromagnetic flow sensor designed to meet ground water, drinking water, wastewater, sewage or sludge applications.
■ Benefits
7 Available in sizes from DN 25 to DN 1200 (1” to 48”)7 Available with connecting flanges EN 1092-1 (DIN 2501),
ANSI, AWWA and AS.7 Hard lining guarantees consistent accuracy throughout the
temperature and pressure range7 Soft elastomer facing provides high abrasion resistance.7 High grade stainless steel integrated grounding and measur-
ing electrodes7 Increased low flow accuracy for water leak detection, due to
coned liner design.7 Drinking water approvals7 Suitable for direct burial and constant flooding7 Built-in length according to ISO 133597 Easy commissioning, SENSORPROM unit automatically up-
loads calibration values and settings.7 Designed that patented in-situ verification can be conducted.
Using SENSORPROM fingerprint.
■ Application
The main applications of the SITRANS F M MAGFLO electro-magnetic flow sensors can be found in the following fields:• Water abstraction• Water treatment• Water distribution network (leak detection management)• Custody transfer water meters• Irrigation• Waste water treatment• Filtration plant (e.g. reverse osmosis and ultra filtration)• Industrial water applications
■ Mode of operation
The flow measuring principle is based on Faradays law of elec-tromagnetic induction were the sensor converts the flow into an electrical voltage proportional to the velocity of the flow.
■ Function
• Highly resistant to a wide range of chemicals• Conforms to OIML R49 and ISO 4064• Meets EEC directives: PED, 97/23/EC pressure directive for
EN1092-1 flanges• Individually calibrated on UKAS ISO 17025 accredited cali-
bration facility with a ± 0.1% uncertainty.• Simple on site upgrade to IP68 / NEMA 6P of a standard sen-
sor.
■ Integration
The complete flow meter consists of a flow sensor and an asso-ciated transmitter SITRANS F M MAGFLO MAG 5000, MAG 6000 or MAG 6000 I.
The flexible communication concept USM II simplifies integra-tion and update to a variety of fieldbus systems, e.g. HART, PROFIBUS DP & PA, DeviceNet, CANopen, MODBUS RTU/RS485

Product selection guidelines3.1 Sizing table (1/4" to 78")
The table shows the relationship between flow velocity V, flow quantity Q and sensor dimension size.
Guidelines for selection of sensorMin. measuring range: 0-0.8 ft./sec. Max. measuring range: 0-33 ft./sec.Normally the sensor is selected so that the nominal flow velocity is within the measuring range 1-15 ft./sec.
Flow velocity calculation formula:GPM = (Pipe I.D. inches)2 x velocity (ft./sec.) x 2.448
V =GPM x 0.408
(Pipe I.D. inches)2or V =
(Pipe I.D. inches)2 MGD x 283.67

GroundingPE must be connected for safety reasons.
Mechanical countersWhen connecting a mechanical counter to terminals 57 and 58 (active output), a 1000 �F capacitormust be connected to the terminals 56 and 58. Capacitor + is connected to terminal 56.
Output cablesWhen using long cables in an electrically noisy environment we recommend using shielded cablein metal conduit. See page 15 for max. cable lengths.
Electrode cablesDotted connections only to be used when using speical cable.
Special cable with indi-vidual wire shields (shownwith dashed lines) are onlyrequired when using emptypipe function with lowconductivity process (see“Specifications, section 2)
Safety NoteOnly qualified personnelshould perform wiring orrepairs, and only when thesignal converter is notpowered. Install signalconverter in accordancewith all relevant NEC andlocal codes.

Installation conditionsReading and operating the flowmeter is possi-ble under almost any installation conditionsbecause the display can be oriented in relation tothe sensor. To ensure optimum flow mea-surement, attention should be paid to the fol-lowing:
The sensor must always be completely full withliquid.
Therefore avoid:� Installation at the highest point in the pipe
system� Installation in vertical pipes with free outlet
For partially filled pipes or pipes with downwardflow and free outlet the flowmeter should belocated in a U-tube.
Recommended flow direction: upwards. Thisminimizes the effect on the measurement of anygas/air bubbles in the liquid.

The sensor must be mounted as shown in theupper figure. Do not mount the sensor as shownin the lower figure. This will position the electrodesat the top where there is possibility for air bubblesand at the bottom where there is possibility formud, sludge, sand etc.If using empty pipe detection, the sensor can betilted 45�, as shown in the upper figure.
Recommended installation is in a vertical/inclinedpipe to minimize the wear and deposits in thesensor.
To achieve accurate flow measurement it is es-sential to have straight lengths of inlet and outletpipes and a certain distance between pumps andvalves.It is also important to centre the flowmeter inrelation to pipe flanges and gaskets.
The electrical potential of the liquid must alwaysbe equal to the electrical potential of the sensor.This can be achieved in different ways dependingon the application:A. Wire jumper between sensor and adjacent
flanges. (MAG 1100 and MAG 3100).B. Direct metallic contact between sensor and
fittings. (MAG 1100 FOOD).C. Built-in earthing electrodes. (MAG 3100 and
MAG 3100 W).D. Optional earthing/protection flanges/rings.
(MAG 1100 and MAG 3100).E. Optional graphite gaskets on MAG 1100.
(Standard for MAG 1100 High temperature).

Avoid a vacuum in the measuring pipe, sincethis can damage certain liners.See "Technical data", section 2.
The flowmeter can be installed between tworeducers (e.g. DIN 28545). Assuming that at 8�the following pressure drop curve applies. Thecurves are applicable to water.
Example:A flow velocity of 3 m/s (V) in a sensor with adiameter reduction from DN 100 to DN 80(d1/d2 = 0.8) gives a pressure drop of 2.9 mbar.
The sensor and signal converter can be installedeither compact or remote.
With compac t installation the temperature ofmedium must be according to the graph.
With remot e installation, the cable length andtype described under "Technical data", section2 must be used.

Step 1Remove and discard the terminal box lid of thesensor.
Fit the PG 13.5 cable glands for the supply andoutput cables.
Step 2Remove the two black plug assemblies for coiland electrode cables in the terminal box andconnect them to their corresponding terminalnumbers on the connection board.
Step 3Connect an earth wire between PE on connec-tion board and bottom of connection box.Connect the 2 pin connector and 3 pin connectoras shown.
NoteIn earlier version the 3 pin connector was a 5 pinconnector.
Step 4Mount the connection plate in the terminal box.The SENSORPROM® unit connections will beestablished automatically when the connectionplate is mounted in the terminal box.
NoteCheck that your connection board lines up withthe SENSORPROM® unit, if not, move theSENSORPROM® unit to the other side of theterminal box.
Step 5Fit the supply and output cables respectivelyand tighten the cable glands to obtain optimumsealing.Please refer to the wiring diagram in section 7for the electrical connections.
Mount the signal converter on the terminal box.
NoteSystem will not registerflow if black plugs are notconnected to connectionboard
