Check EMFs without removing them
A fully portable in-situ calibration verification system for electromagnetic flowmeters captures data for download later.
A fully portable in-situ calibration verification system for electromagnetic flowmeters (EMFs) has been launched by flow control specialist Krohne The MagCheck unit performs a complete functionality check on flow heads, signal converters and cables while the flowmeter remains in-line, and captures data for download later

Mass flowmeter measures up in difficult areas
A revolutionary new design of single straight tube Coriolis mass flowmeter ensures problem free installation and maximum accuracy in notoriously difficult applications.
Radical flowmeter designed for low flow use
A radical new design of single Z tube Coriolis mass flowmeter, ideal for blending, dosing and batching, is designed for low flow applications.
The unit enables EMFs to be verified periodically in-situ, checking proper and accurate functioning of the meters to within ñ1% of their original factory calibration.
The unit's compact design and portability eliminate the local use of laptops, printers or other devices and enable periodic checking without excavating the EMFs or disrupting the flow.
This avoids the costs incurred by conventional methods of periodically verifying flow meters, which may involve removal from the line for calibration on external test rigs.
Once the cables are connected, verification is carried out automatically, with data subsequently logged into the internal memory.
No batteries or mains connection are required.
MagCheck is able to store verification data of up to 70 measuring points for desktop data processing, facilitating the early detection of drifts and trends in the individual measured variables.
The MagCheck PC programme also allows the easy printout of verification certificates.
MagCheck provides verified accuracy guaranteed to within ñ1% of the original factory calibration; directly retraceable to national and international standards.
It is compatible with Windows 95, 98 NT4 and 2000, and meets in-house regulations according to the requirements of ISO 9000.
MagCheck is compatible with all present Krohne converter and sensor types.
