The IFC 100 is a cost-effective signal converter for electromagnetic flowmeters, compatible with most OPTIFLUX and WATERFLUX flow sensors as well as the OPTIPROBE insertion sensor. It drives the field coils, digitizes and filters the flow signal, and calculates flow velocity, volume flow and mass flow. Built-in device and process diagnostics detect electrode coating, conductivity and temperature changes, gas bubbles or solids, and empty pipe.
