OPTIFLUX 1400
Electromagnetic flowmeter for dosing systems, compact skids and wireless on-site verification
- Multi Phase Operation (MPO): Continuous measurement and stable, repeatable readings – even during major process disturbances such as gas entrainment and solids
- Parameterisation, monitoring and verification via Bluetooth®
- Wafer design: DN10…150 / ⅜…6"; max. PN40 / ASME Cl 300
- Advanced OPTICHECK technology built-in diagnostics and NAMUR NE 107 status indication via colour-coded backlit display
Vue d'ensemble
The OPTIFLUX 1400 is a lightweight, wafer-style electromagnetic flowmeter (EMF) designed as a cost-effective solution for applications requiring higher accuracy, advanced diagnostics, and wireless on-site verification. It is especially well-suited for space-saving installation on compact dosing skids handling conductive liquids – such as chemicals – or slurry-like media with very high solid content, including manure.
Thanks to its innovative MPO (Multi Phase Operation) functionality, the OPTIFLUX 1400 provides optimised signal processing that maintains measurement operation even during major process disturbances that push other commercially available EMFs to their limits. As a result, it delivers reliable, repeatable readings even in the presence of high levels of entrained gas, solids or electromagnetic disturbances.
The flowmeter features an improved menu structure for simplified, user-friendly operation. A broad range of configurable settings allows easy access to measurement data and diagnostics, such as empty pipe detection or conductivity changes. Diagnostic messages are color-coded in accordance with NAMUR NE 107 standards and clearly presented on the high-resolution, backlit display. In addition, the flowmeter is also equipped with a real-time clock, which enables event logging and analysis of the recorded diagnostics.
For its approximately 80 application and device diagnostics, the OPTIFLUX 1400 utilises OPTICHECK technology built-in. Next to continuous self-monitoring, the OPTIFLUX 1400 offers wireless parameterisation, real-time measurement monitoring, and on-site verification via Bluetooth® when used with the KROHNE OPTICHECK Flow Mobile app. A verification report can be generated at the push of a button – without interrupting production, opening the converter housing, or working in confined spaces. This greatly simplifies operation and maintenance while improving occupational safety.
With no internal moving parts, the OPTIFLUX 1400 is maintenance-free and resistant to vibration. It also supports EcoMode – an energy-efficient setting that reduces power consumption without compromising accuracy, promoting sustainable and efficient energy use.
