Aplisens Electromagnetic Flowmeter PEM-1000 Series

Introduction – Aplisens Electromagnetic Flowmeter PEM-1000 Series

The Aplisens Electromagnetic Flowmeter PEM-1000 Series is designed for precise, bidirectional measurement of conductive liquids with a minimum conductivity of 5 μS/cm. Based on Faraday’s law of electromagnetic induction, this advanced device converts flow velocity into a proportional electrical signal, ensuring accurate and stable readings across a wide range of industrial applications.

Built for versatility, the PEM-1000 is available in compact (PEM-1000ALW) and remote (PEM-1000NW) versions. Its modular design allows easy transition between configurations, offering flexibility in installation and maintenance. The unit delivers high accuracy up to ±0.2%, supports Modbus RTU communication, and features 4–20 mA, pulse, and frequency outputs for seamless integration with process control systems.

The transmitter and sensor are constructed from robust, corrosion-resistant materials—including stainless steel, Hastelloy, or Tantalum electrodes—making the flowmeter ideal for use in aggressive or viscous media such as acids, alkalis, paints, and wastewater. Its IP67/IP68 protection ensures reliable operation even in demanding environments.

Distributed in the UAE and MENA region by Dubai Sensor, the Aplisens PEM-1000 Series stands out for its measurement precision, durability, and adaptability across diverse process industries.
