Abstract:
1. A magnetic flowmeter for measuring flow rate of a process fluid, comprising: a magnetic coil arranged to apply a magnetic field to the process fluid; a pair of electrodes electronically coupled to the process fluid and arranged to sense a voltage induced in the process fluid related to the applied magnetic field and the flow rate of the process fluid; a molded flow tube of a non-conductive material arranged to receive a flow of the process fluid therethrough, the molded flow tube molded to form a tube filled with the non-conductive material such that the non-conductive material is molded around the magnetic coil and the pair of electrodes and configured to support the magnetic coil and the pair of electrodes; and flow meter circuitry configured to apply a current to the magnetic coil and receive the voltage sensed by the pair of electrodes.
