The Flow-Tronic Torpee-Mag<\/a><\/strong> (pictured left) is a full-profile, insertion-type magnetic flow meter. Insertion-type magmeters may be installed via hot-tap, which precludes the need to shut down, empty, or cut the pipe. Such technology can provide most economical installations for flow metering within medium and large pipe diameters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Torpee Mag features traditional 4-20 milliamp and pulse SCADA signals, as well as the Modbus\/RTU fieldbus protocol.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Like most mains-powered magnetic flow meters, the Torpee Mag does not offer native AMI\/AMR-compatibility. However, SCADAmetrics is pleased to announce that today’s firmware release for the Model MBE Encodalizer\u2122<\/em><\/strong><\/a> now adds Sensus and Neptune encoder protocols to this important flow meter, so that it may now be easily integrated into today\u2019s modern AMI\/AMR systems!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

The following illustrates a typical application of the Torpee Mag\/Encodalizer pair into a potable water distribution or wastewater system \u2014 where both<\/span><\/strong> AMI and SCADA signaling are desired:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Connection of the Encodalizer to the Torpee Mag could not be easier: Two (2) wires interconnect the instruments (Modbus+<\/sup> and Modbus–<\/sup>). Configuration of the Encodalizer is also straightforward, requiring setup via 16 integral DIP switches from a lookup table.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
