Principle of Operation
Faraday’s Law
Conductive liquid moving through a magnetic field produces a current
www.hvac.vn
Principle of Operation
Current is proportional to velocity of the liquid
www.hvac.vn
Principle of Operation
A magnetic field is directed through the conductive liquidVoltage generated is proportional to the movement of the flowing liquid
