  • FAQ

1. What is the MIK-FMC800 battery powered electromagnetic flowmeter?

The MIK-FMC800 is an electromagnetic flowmeter whose converter runs on an internal battery, so no external power supply is needed. It is designed for sites where the power grid cannot reach or cabling is difficult, and is especially suitable for monitoring and metering in tap water supply systems.

2. Where is a battery powered flowmeter typically used?

It is typically used at remote or unpowered measuring points, such as water distribution networks, district metering areas, valve chambers, rural water supply, and temporary monitoring points where installing power cables would be difficult or costly.

3. How long does the battery last?

Battery life depends on the measurement interval, communication usage, display usage and ambient temperature. Please tell us your operating requirements, and our team will confirm the expected battery life for your configuration.

4. Can the battery be replaced?

Please contact us for information on battery type and replacement for your configuration.

5. Can the flow data be read remotely?

The MIK-FMC800 provides RS485 communication with Modbus protocol, which can be connected to a data logger, RTU or other remote monitoring device. If you need wireless data transmission, please tell us your requirements so we can confirm a suitable solution.

6. Can the MIK-FMC800 be used for water billing?

The MIK-FMC800 is suitable for monitoring, metering and settlement in tap water supply systems. If the readings will be used for official billing, local regulations may require an approved water meter. Please tell us your billing requirements so we can confirm what can be provided.

7. What liquids can it measure?

It measures conductive liquids such as tap water, raw water and wastewater. For clean water, the conductivity must be greater than 20 μS/cm. It cannot measure gases, steam or non-conductive liquids.

8. What pipe sizes are available?

The MIK-FMC800 is available from DN3 to DN2100.

9. How accurate is the MIK-FMC800?

The accuracy is 0.5%.

10. What flow velocity range can it measure?

The flow velocity range is 0–15 m/s.

11. What liner materials are available?

Options include PTFE, PFA, F46 (FEP), neoprene, polyurethane rubber and high-temperature rubber. Our engineers can recommend a liner based on your liquid and temperature.

12. What electrode materials and types are available?
  • Electrode materials: SS316, Hastelloy B/C, titanium, tantalum, platinum-iridium alloy and tungsten carbide
  • Electrode types: standard, scraper and replaceable

Scraper electrodes are generally used for liquids that tend to foul the electrodes, while replaceable electrodes make maintenance easier.

13. What process connections are available?

Flange, plug-in, clamp and clip-on connections are available.

14. What temperature and humidity conditions can it handle?
  • Medium temperature: -20 °C to +60 °C
  • Ambient temperature: -20 °C to 50 °C
  • Relative humidity: ≤95%
15. What pressure ratings are available?

Nominal pressure ratings range from 0.6 MPa to 4.0 MPa. Other ratings can be customized.

16. What is the ingress protection rating?

The ingress protection rating is IP68, making it suitable for valve chambers, pits and other locations that may be flooded.

17. What does the MIK-FMC800 measure and record?
  • Measurement: instantaneous flow and instantaneous flow velocity
  • Record: accumulated total flow
18. What alarm functions does it have?

It provides an empty pipe detection alarm and an excitation current detection alarm.

19. What is the test mode pulse output used for?

In test mode, the meter outputs a pulse for each unit volume of flow. This is generally used for calibration and verification of the meter.

20. What should I consider during installation?
  • The measuring tube must always be completely full of liquid.
  • Avoid the highest point of the pipeline, where air can collect.
  • Provide sufficient straight pipe upstream and downstream of the meter.
  • Ground the sensor properly for a stable signal.
  • Install the converter where the display can be read and the battery can be serviced.

Please follow the installation manual or contact our engineers for site-specific requirements.

21. What information should I provide to get a quotation?

To help us select the correct model, please provide:

  • Liquid name and conductivity
  • Pipe size and process connection type
  • Flow range (min / normal / max)
  • Liquid temperature and working pressure
  • Preferred liner and electrode materials (if known)
  • Expected battery life and data recording interval
  • Communication and remote reading requirements
  • Billing or metering requirements
  • Quantity
