Patent ID: 7270014

Claim:
A magnetoinductive flowmeter for a medium having at least a minimum electrical conductivity, said magnetoinductive flowmeter comprising: a measuring tube through which the medium may flow; at least two electric coils, which are arranged opposite one another on the measuring tube, for the purpose of inducing a magnetic field running essentially perpendicularly with respect to the longitudinal axis of the measuring tube; and an electrode arrangement, which is aligned essentially perpendicularly with respect to the longitudinal axis of the measuring tube and essentially perpendicularly with respect to the magnetic-field axis, for the purpose of measuring a measurement voltage induced as a result of the flow of medium; and wherein the electric coils are each undetachably connected to and sealed at least partially within an associated housing part, which housing parts are in the form of hollow-cylinder segments defining cavities adapted to receive casting material, wherein the casting material undetachably secures the electric coils to the respective housing part, the hollow-cylinder segments being detachably mounted on the measuring tube so as to at least partially surround the measuring tube.
