Operating manual for the SIKA induQ Series VMI magnetic inductive flow sensor, covering installation, operation, safety, and technical specifications.
This document serves as the operating manual for the SIKA induQ® Series VMI, a non-contact magnetic inductive flow sensor designed for measuring and metering water and aqueous solutions. The manual provides instructions for specialists and semi-skilled personnel on the device's construction, intended use, and safety guidelines.
| Measurement principle | magnetic induction |
|---|---|
| Moving parts | none |
| Intended media | water and aqueous solutions |
| Protection degree | IP65 |
| Electrical connection | 4(5)-pin plug M12x1 |
| Minimum conductivity | 50 μS/cm |
| Available nominal sizes | DN 7, DN 10 and DN 20 |
The fluid must have a minimum conductivity of 50 μS/cm.
No, the VMI is not a safety component and must not be used as one.
Only suitable tools of the correct size should be used.
An inlet section is not absolutely necessary, though straight sections are preferable for accuracy.
