AI Technical Summary
Electromagnetic flow meters using silver chloride-coated silver electrodes are costly and prone to degradation in low chloride ion environments, while cheaper metals exhibit noise and unpredictable voltages due to electrochemical reactions, and existing alternatives like gold and platinum are even more expensive.
Employing a graphite electrode with a porous structure and an electrically-conductive polymer connector to reduce galvanic effects and noise, providing a cost-effective solution that maintains performance in low conductivity fluids.
The graphite electrode with a conductive polymer connector reduces electrical noise, lowers costs, and maintains measurement accuracy in low chloride ion environments, enabling reliable operation in a wide range of fluid conductivities.
