McCROMETER SPI Mag Electromagnetic Flow Meter is a hot tappable single point insertion flow meter for measuring forward flow. The sensor is available for oneinch or two-inch taps, depending upon line size and application.

The SPI Mag is a cost effective flow meter solution with a purchase price that is independent of line size making the cost to meter a sixty-inch line the same as a two-inch. The SPI Mag’s hot tap installation allows for uninterrupted service as it installs without system shut-down, de-watering lines, cutting pipe or welding flanges. Installation costs are reduced by eliminating the need for heavy equipment or extensive manpower. The SPI can be easily re-located to various line sizes.

McCROMETER SPI Mag Features Typical Water Applications

  • Wastewater : (2” only)
    – Effluent
    – Waste Activated Sludge (WAS)
    – Return Activated Sludge (RAS)
    – Reclaim / Recycle
  • Clean Water : (1” or 2”)
    – Raw Water Intake
    – Clear Wells

Benefits

  • Easy to relocate to various line sizes
  • Ease of hot-tap installation
  • Installs without service interruption
  • Insertion design for total accessibility
  • Price is independent of line size
  • No moving parts
  • Does not require recalibration in the field

Specifications SPI Mag Model 282L Flow Measurement
