Measuring instruments with a lot of attraction
– dosing solutions

Our electromagnetic flowmeters are mainly used in the food and beverage industry. They work according to the Faraday principle. Unlike all other electromagnetic flowmeters on the market, they operate in an alternating field (AC) instead of a synchronized DC field. The result is higher measurement dynamics and faster, more precise measurements for dosing the filling time up to 100ms.
