9、860538FOREWORD(This Foreword is not part of ASME MFC-16M-1995.)This Standard was prepared by Subcommittee 5 of the ASME Committee on the Measure-ment of Fluid Flow in Closed Conduits.The chairman of the subcommittee is indebted to themany individuals who contributed to this document.Electromagnetic
10、flowmeters were first introduced to the process industries in the mid-1950s.They quickly became an accepted flowmeter for difficult applications.Subsequent improve-ments in technology and reductions in cost have transformed this flowmeter into one of theleading contenders for general use in water ba
11、sed and other electrically conducting liquidapplications.Due to differences in design of the various electromagnetic flowmeters in the marketplace,this Standard cannot address detailed performance limitations in specific applications.It does,however,cover issues that are common to all meters,includi
12、ng application considerations.Suggestions for improvements to this Standard are encouraged.They should be sent to theSecretary.ASME MFC Main Committee,The American Society of Mechanical Engineers,345East 47th Street,New York,N.Y.10017.This Standard was approved by the American National Standards Ins
