Introduction

1.0 INTRODUCTION

Thank you for selecting the Mc Mag3000™ (Battery Powered Electromagnetic Flow Meter). This bolt-on saddle meter oers

the convenience of installation and operation of a propeller meter with the accuracy and ease of use of a mag meter.

The Mc Mag3000 ow meter combines an innovative multi-point sensor with a battery powered integrated electronic

converter package to provide accurate ow measurement for full-pipe ow monitoring applications.

The saddle mounted sensor (available for pipe sizes from 4 to 12 inches) uses electromagnetic technology to measure the

water ow and correct for shifting velocity in the pipe by constantly obtaining a mean velocity from its multiple sensors.

The integrated converter is powered by a replaceable three cell lithium-thionyl chloride (Li-SOCI2) battery that can provide

ow measurement for ve years (including a three-year battery warranty). Also available is the optional DC power supply

(required for 4-20mA output). The streamlined, debris-shedding sensor shape allows the Mc Mag3000 to be used under

many ow conditions, including surface water applications.

The Mc Mag3000 includes the McLogger data logger as standard with any order. Please see the McLogger manual for more

information (Literature number 30121-87).

2.0 PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION

The Mc Mag3000 uses Faraday's Law of Electromagnetic Induction to measure water velocity. Faraday's Law states that a

conductor, moving through a magnetic eld, produces a voltage.

Charge carriers in the uid produce a voltage when passing through a magnetic eld. The magnitude of the voltage is

directly proportional to the velocity at which the uid moves through the magnetic eld. Electromagnetic coils inside the

sensor produce magnetic elds, and electrodes on the sensor’s surface measure the voltage generated by the moving uid.

The electrode pairs are positioned in specic congurations along the axis of the sensor. The individual velocity

measurements are averaged together providing the average velocity across the pipe center line. Flow is calculated by

multiplying the average velocity by the cross-sectional area of the pipe.

Installation

3.0 INSTALLATION

3.1 Packaging Note

When you unpack the Mc Mag3000, you will nd a red plastic cap over the front push button. This can be discarded with

the rest of the packing materials.

3.2 General Installation Considerations

Proper meter installation is the rst step to ensure excellent meter performance. Follow these instructions closely. Consult

an authorized service representative or the Factory for any circumstances encountered which are not covered in this

manual.

All McCrometer products are tested and inspected during manufacture and prior to shipping. An inspection should be

performed at the time of unpacking to detect any damage that might have occurred during shipment.

Flow Direction

• Although a minimum line pressure is not necessary for an accurate measurement, a full pipe is necessary.

• With the meter installed, check the rate-of-ow indicator. It should be stable to the point that it can be easily read.

Some indicator movement is normal due to variations in ow. Erratic movement of the indicator is normally caused

by ow variations and the system should be checked. Drastic variations in ow can decrease meter accuracy. If you

suspect a problem with the meter, please contact your local McCrometer representative.

3.3 Flow Direction

It is very important to install the ow meter relative to the ow of the water. The sensor is designed at an angle to shed

debris in the ow and for other performance enhancements.

Figure 1. Proper Meter Installation For Flow Direction (6" To 12" Line Size Conguration Shown)

WARNING!

Incorrect installation or removal of meters can result in serious injury or death. Read the instructions in this

manual on the proper procedures carefully.

• Any person installing, inspecting, or maintaining a McCrometer ow meter should have a working understanding

of piping congurations and systems under pressure.

• Before adjusting or removing any meter, be certain the system has depressurized completely.

• Be careful when lifting meters. Meters can cause serious injury if lifted incorrectly or dropped.All magnetic ow

meters are calibrated for a full pipeline only; if less, the ow meter will over register the ow.

Figure 2. How To Measure Straight Pipe Requirements

3.4 Straight Pipe Requirements

Flow meters are velocity sensing devices and are vulnerable to certain upstream disturbances. Because of this, meters

need certain lengths of straight pipe before and after the meter. These distances relate to the diameter of the pipe

used. Obstructions can include elbows, valves, pumps, and changes in pipe diameter. The uneven ow created by these

obstructions can vary with each system.

Both upstream and downstream distances are measured from the center of the saddle as shown below. In a typical

installation to achieve ±2% accuracy the Mc Mag3000 ow meter should be installed a minimum of three diameters upstream

from most ow disturbers and one diameter downstream of the meter. Accuracy of ±1% is available in many applications

with a Factory consultation prior to ordering.

Installation

3.5.2 Installations Replacing Existing Saddle Meters

The Mc Mag3000 can be used to replace existing McCrometer saddle meters. The Mc Mag3000 can be installed with Water

Specialties bolt-on saddle meter cutout templates for 6” meters and 8”-20” meters, as well as with McPropeller bolt-on

saddle meter cutout templates for 12”-16”OD pipe.

NOTE:

The meter CANNOT be installed with Water Specialties bolt on saddle meter cutout templates for 4”meters.

WARNING!

Customers are warned that the U-Bolt nuts are to be tightened evenly to approximately 30 foot pounds torque.

This is sucient to seal the saddle to the pipeline. Additional tightening may be required to seal the saddle on

rough or irregular pipe (60 FOOT POUNDS MAXIMUM).

3.5.1 New Installations

Saddle type meters oer simplicity of installation. A minimum round hole size of three inches (3.0") should be cut into the

top center of the pipe. The saddle meter is then installed as follows:

1. Loosen and remove the nuts and washers from the straps. Remove the straps from the saddle.

2. Cut or hole-saw the pipe and remove all burrs, slag, and rough edges from the inside and outside of the cutout section.

3. Place the meter assembly on the pipe with the at gasket on the 4" models, and the “D” shaped ring gasket for larger

meters in position on the bottom of the saddle. The saddle must be positioned so that the at gasket or D-ring

maintains contact with the surface of the pipe completely around the cutout opening.

4. Insert the meter probe through the hole and slide the meter forward (downstream) until the probe contacts the front

edge of the pipe wall. Then slide the back away from the pipe wall 1/8" to 1/4" leaving the probe in a free state and not

in contact with the pipe wall.

WARNING!

Insure that the line is depressurized before beginning installation!

IMPORTANT!

Insure that the meter probe is not in contact with the pipe wall when installed!

3.5 Flow Meter Installation

The Mc Mag3000 is a saddle type meter. It may be installed directly onto an existing pipe, or may be installed into an

optional spool piece to be added to a system.

5. Install the straps from under the pipe and insert the threaded ends through the holes in the brackets on the side of

the saddle.

6. For each strap bolt, replace the washers and nuts.

7. Tighten each of the U-bolt nuts evenly.

3.6 Grounding

The Mc Mag3000 is tted with a grounding lug on the saddle for proper grounding. For typical installations the lug can be

connected to an earth ground and/or the metal pipe in which it is installed.

For electrically noisy installations connect the grounding lug to a dedicated, low impedance earth ground. Low impedance

is 10 Ohms or less.
