The Kobold MIM Series Electromagnetic Flow Meter measures and monitors small to medium sized flow of conductive liquids in pipes. According to Faraday's Law of magnetic induction, a voltage is induced in a conductor moving through a magnetic field. The electrically conductive measured media acts as the conductor. The voltage induced in the measured media is proportional to the flow velocity and is therefore a value for the volumetric flow .

The induced voltage is detected by two sensing electrodes which are in contact with the measuring media and sent to an integrated amplifier. The flow rate will be calculated based on the cross sectional area of the pipe. The measurement does not depend on the process liquid and its properties such as density, viscosity, and temperature .

The two outputs can be independently set to switch, or provide an analog or frequency output. A batching function can also be selected, where output 1 is set to switch as NPN/PNP/PP and output 2 is set as the control input. The meter features stainless steel construction, flow and temperature measurement capabilities, bi-directional flow measurement, and an intuitive setup menu .
